Is it a problem to travel to Thailand on a one-way ticket while applying for a retirement visa?

Chris ******

He does not need an Agent,as long a Thai Bank account with TB 800,000.00 in it or his pension details that equal the financial requirements,then he can go to immigration and apply for the O visa himself, instead of getting ripped off by an agency firm.

I obtained my O Visa within 28 days,so 30 days is enough time.
