First one must be in person or by post. 2nd one can be online but if you leave country and come back it resets ie the first report has to be in person again

Luckily they do not seem to ban for dubious documents. They would have told you. Do that for a British visa and 10 year ban for applying for a visa.

You are meant to stay in the country you applied while you visa is being processed. If they look through your passport at interview and see Thai stamps you are in danger of visa rejection.

It is not meant to happen but many have done it. Not seen anyone post they have been penalised if they have done it. There was a post that loked like someone had been caught out though during application. Embassy where they applied asked for proof they were in country when they had returned to Thailand

Nobody has reported any issues doing as you plan.

Anonymous participant 738 Applied outside Thailand. Before it was approved travelled to Thailand and entered on a Visa Exempt.

I am same as you. Have local accounts but use cash for almost everything at shops, cafes, restaurants, bars etc etc. The staff probably prefer cash - more likely to get a tip :-)

Yup. Agent can advise on what documents are required. Can QA check them. Can also submit for you too if you need all of that. They do similar for O and other visas. Costs around 7k THB

I think even before DTV those doing a same day bounce to the likes of Malaysia were pulled. They are a bit funny there. In April I was going to Vietnam at 6am. The IO looked through my passport which is pretty full and lots of visas and stamps for many countries. She smiled and said you have re-entry. Just checking so you do not lose visa
