thanks for asking, I personally visited the Embassy itself last Monday the 30th. I had all visa paper work nicely arranged and everything ready to go. I was there in Jakarta at 9am, but was not let in the Compound. Told only to file a COE and that was it. Since then I have called 40 times and emailed, FB messages. The Royal Thai Embassy in Jakarta is in another world.
They certainly do not operate the same, here in Jakarta it has been one week since first applying for a COE, and 4 days since uploading ASQ and related info. I don't even have a visa yet.
