What are the options for expats on METV in Chiang Mai to extend their stay without using a company for a border run?

Pilinka *********

so is it better to bounce out and back in after the initial 60 days, or to get an extension and then bounce after that? I'm confused as to how one would get 9 months if the visa is two lots of 60 days each extendable by 30 which would equal 6 months. ??

Arrived by Air from Rome went through immigration in BKK and was immediately given 30 day exempt no questions asked. I was prepared with 2k and a ticket onward but they didn't ask for it. YAY!

By the way my brother who has even more stamps for thirty days and extensions and border hops than I do, got through with no problems a couple of months ago.
