We had the affidavit, it was inked and signed at the Embassy but officer just looked at it and told us to open a bank account and come back November 14th, did not ask for any missing documents or anything, only to open a bank account. Maybe when officer see proof of a bank account and two 65k transactions my affidavit will do in combination with bank account?

Yes that can be the reason, one thing you know about Immigrations are that you never know what they want you to present next time. We asked about their handouts and there was a choice between using Embassy affidavits OR bank transactions, it turned out that their handout was incorrect when we came back there.

I hope no misunderstanding, I had my Thai girlfriend with me, they had most of the conversation because officer had very limited English skills. Because officer did not let me use my issued affidavit from Embassy she told me to open a bank account right away and start to transfer 65 000 baht for 2 months to get my first 1 year extension, that was on 21st October, 14th November I go back to Immigration. On 22nd October I made my first 65k transaction, the second one I will do on November 12th, the day before we go to my bank office to update bank book, get statements and a bank certificate officer also told us to get.

Det är Immigration här i Saraburi som inte godkänner income letter från Ambassaden.
