TLDR : Answer Summary
The Jomtien immigration office is reportedly delaying the issuance of 30-day visa extensions until at least September 25th. Users have mentioned that there are limitations on the number of people being served and advise arriving early to secure a spot.

We have no reports like that...did they turn you away ?

They are limiting # of those to be served in morning and afternoon.

Get there early to get a #.

I was stamped under consideration on the 2nd to return today. I didn’t need a queue #, was just told to go straight to the desk with my passport & receipt. They didn’t give me the 30 days & said to come back 25th.

my guess, probably not had the centralised part of the paperwork returned back to them from Bangkok. I would imagine they are very busy.
