Standard Visitor visa is £115

My 10 year old (UK citizen) has never done a 90-day and it's never been an issue when I've extended his stay. Maybe we've just been lucky.

Although Thailand does not require 6 months validity as long as the passport is valid for the duration of stay, most airlines don't seem to accept this over an abundance of caution. I have been in this situation although over a land border and although the UK Embassy told me I needed 6 months, they were wrong and I was admitted. Your situation is tricky as it may be more difficult to convince the airline check-in. A letter from someone in authority in Thailand may help. Good luck.

Which office did you do your TM30 at? I'd try your nearest office first.

You use the office where you/they live (where their TM30 is filed). After the first in-person 90 day has been done, future ones can be done online.

They moved from soi 13 to Rama 9 - The Shoppes at Belle Grand Rama 9, Huai Khwang

The UK Embassy in Thailand do not legalise documents - it is done by the Legalisation Office in Milton Keynes - but they do certify passports. Appointments are made online.

Me neither. But Labour probably don't want to make Reform voters even angrier!

Won't be happening unfortunately. Making it easier for foreigners to enter the UK is not a vote winner.
