Can't answer your other questions, but highly recommended you avoid Monday and Thursday, as these are the busiest days due to visa run companies.

One correction: Thai Consulate in Hobart, Tasmania (Australia) does NOT have any financial requirements for METV - you will even notice their specific application form doesn't even mention any financial requirements. BUT its a long way out of normal travel haha 😉

How can I extend my visa in Bangkok before my flight on November 27th?

Glen *********

You might still be in a spot of bother...any extension from 27 Oct will only take you to 26 Nov, 30 days, it's not a one calendar month extension...so it won't cover you up until your flight.

Should I book a return flight within 60 days of my tourist visa for Thailand or can it be for 6 months later?

Glen *********

Technically within 60 days...but they don't ask for it that often...but yes if they do, then 60 days out of the country, not necessarily home country

Do I need to open a Thai bank account for my Non-O retirement visa instead of using my US Embassy letter?

Glen *********

Not true...but you should have financial proof with you to support your Embassy statement of income, such as bank statements showing monthly income

You should give more details as to where this happened etc...
