Has anyone successfully used the Online Visa Extension system in Thailand?

Martyn ***********

You expiry will be midnight tomorrow.. Your paperwork is in order, get there early tomorrow...They could look for a problem that may be solved by 'incentives' knowing you've left it to the last day? But you should be fine...
