I flied on the 12th. I arrived at midnight - it was already the 13th.
The flight from KL was at 10:10 pm. Arrival in BKK at 11:20 pm. By the time I was at the visa on arrival, it was the 13th. 1-13th, 2-14th, 3-15th. I am sorry for the inaccuracy. nobody paid me for this story!

Yesterday I flew from Kuala Lumpur to Bangkok but Thailand refused me entry because they said I have had too many visas already. They gave me expulsion agreement to sign and put in the detention room. Yesterday the representative of the airline with which I flew here met me and told me that they will be transporting me back to Kuala Lumpur today. Later I spoke with them on the phone and they said the ticket was confirmed. But 'yesterday' arrived and today the reception of the detention room are telling me that the flight is tomorrow but they are not telling me what time.
Look @Zhanna, it was a good try. It's just you forgot how many days you spent in detention.
First, you told us you arrived on 13th, then when other posters commented Royal Jordanian flies on the 12th, you changed the story.
I wish you the best of luck, but I will disregard everything that has been posted on this thread by you.
I strongly advise readers to do the same.
And I do wish to know also, how much they paid you for this story.

What the??? I agree with you.... Why cannot enter any Asian country. Yes that is rubbish.
They told me that they don't believe me that I am a tourist because I have so many stamps back to back. But it was not what the official reason was. The official reason was 'insufficient funds' which is not true! I told them that i can show them my bank statement or go withdraw from atm if someone can go with me. But they said it doesnt matter because 'we have already seen your history. I don't believe you are tourist here but visa on arrival is for travelling not for living in thailand. Cannot enter any ASEA country before I get a stamp from home country.

Ok, so you entered Suvarnabhumi without an exit ticket yes?
No, i had exit ticket back to malaysia but it was after 9 days. I planned to stay 9 days in Thailand and then go back to malaysia. I also booked my hotel to show them paid confirmation on agoda. I lost that also. I did have return ticket upon entering and hotel booking

@Zhanna So you had no exit ticket yes?
Before they put me in detention, Royal Jordanian said they will pay my ticket. And then in the evening of my first day, the called to the detention room and said 'your ticket has been CONFIRMED'. It was a lie. Because 3 hours before boarding they told me that no ticket for me has been paid or reserved and i had to do it myself.

^^^ Very happy you are safe, have a good journey home and spread the word, Thailand is no longer the land of smiles.
By the way, in the end the airline did not buy the ticket for me. They called the detention area 3 hours before boarding and said that I had to book my ticket myself. I asked why they said that the ticket has already been confirmed and why the airline said they would pay. She answered that 'I couldnt check if the ticket was available. Nonsense. Royal Jordanian F***** me over and made me wait 2,5 days in the detention room to avoid paying for the ticket. There were plenty of empty seats on the plane.

Update everyone. Been flown back into Malaysia. The official reason for denial is 'insufficient funds' (although they told me that the reason is that I have too many stamps + I did suggest to go and make a withdrawal from my credit card or show them my bank statement online - no go, they said it doesn't matter we have already seen your history and made a decision about your case. My entry to Malaysia has been denied also and I was told that with the denial stamp I cannot enter any ASEAN country and I need to fly back home. I am currently in the transit area of KL and I have to book my ticket home within 12 hours or else I will be taken to detention room. For the record, there were many more new people during the night. There was a woman from Uman who was transiting through BKK to go to UK - she was detained because the authorities said that they believed she was using someone else's passport, they scanned her eyes. Also, there was a chinese girl - she was detained on the grounds that the immigration officer didn't believe her that she was a tourist.... Also, there was a girl from Phillipines whose return ticket has been refunded when she had shown it to the immigration officer. Altogether I spent 2 and a half days in the detention room and they were two most terrible days of my life. In my first night, I was scared that someone was going to come and rape me at night. I really want to somehow let people know about presenting fake tickets and not having money in cash. But I don't know how to spread awareness? Also< i want to say to those people who laughed at my post when initially posted it using the emoji. IT WAS NOT FUNNY! IT WAS TERRIFYING. It's easy to sit at the computer and laugh until you get into a similar situation... Others, thanks for the engagement with my post and assurance that there won't be any physical abuse

From what has been said this airline only flies to KL 3 times a week. And perfectly possible flights are booked.
Op -- assuming you are not now on your way - can you call the airlines yourself and ask if they have you booked?
The airline just called me about an hour ago and asked me 'Have you booked your ticket?' I asked back why they told me that my ticket has been paid and confirmed by the airline. SHe said 'I couldn't check whether the ticket was available'. B******t! How is it possible they cannot check if they work there?! They told me to buy the ticket which departs at 16:35 at about 1:30. I bought the ticket and showed it to the guard. He told me that I have to wait for the airline staff. I am still I the cell waiting. It is now 15:31 here and the plane departs at 16:35. Noone came.

The Malaysian Immigration certainly might deny back to back visa exempts. They did with me recently. I was denied entry at Penang after 3 of them, 90 days each. I even spent one month inbetween all three, in Indonesia.
The Malaysian Immigration has been through a change lately, and it is not any easier anymore to access the 30 or 90 days visa exempt now (depends on nationality) than it is in Thailand. I assure you that. Several people are now denied. It has nothing to do with funds or whatsoever. Just repeated visa exempts.
So we need to know how many visits the OP has already had in Malaysia, because there is indeed a chance she will be denied entry at KL if she has a few of them already.
I've had one visit so far. But a about 5 months ago I did a visa run from Vietnam to Malaysia but only stayed 1 day - didn't even go out of the airport.

Well yes, but does the airline want to spend any time on cases like this. Like any business spending time on problems interferes with using that same time to enhance positive factors etc...
Actually, the airline didn't say I have to pay. The representative said it's her responsibility to deal with me. I specifically asked if the airline will pay. She said yes. But now I am getting conflicting information now. There are Chinese people here, other detainees and they said you have to book your own ticket - it's official. In the morning the guard came in and said I go today 100%. But then he came in later and I asked what time flight is and he said he doesn't know... I don't know what to do

Guys, I am still here. It's 7:23 am and they brought a bunch of new people. I still haven't heard back from airline. Please advise on the course of action if they don't escort me to board the plane today? WHo should I contact?

Guys, do you think Kuala Lumpur can throw me in the cell also when I get there? I flew from KL on 12th of July and tomorrow is 15th. So, it's been 3 days I was out. Plus I have a stamp from Thailand saying I've been denied entry... Also, is there is the way to somehow check if there is my name on the record for the flight to Kl tomorrow with RJ?

I have resisted post on this thread. Listen to the positive members. You will be flown back KL most likely tomorrow. Try and relax in very stressful situation. Concentrate on your next step. You need plan path from kl to Russia if they not accept you kl.
If somehow you can obtain flight KL to Asian country then that's an option to consider next step.
DO you think there is a possibility they won't accept me in KL?

You can pay to get out of the cell... I did that and I was free to walk around the airport for 24h. I also bought my own ticket.
How much did you pay?

Seems like the OP is out and gone? I think the OP said she/he ( I think she) did not have any 2019 visa on arrivals so thought was ok as only had for 2018 and the rule states 2 per calendar year as the OP thought. Of any course it is writing on the wall to many that is is now like the hunting practice as of shooting at a flock of ducks while flying. Only one or a few will be hit and come down out of the many.
I wait for the day when they really start hitting on the long term extension expats.
Anyway, sorry to hear this as no one should have to go through being scared. A warning would have been better.
Not gone unfortunately. I am still in the cell. I asked them to call the airline which they did after trying to shut me up, the airline said ' We are going to check for you' and hang up. They never called back. My friend sent the e-mail to Royal Jordanian but no response. tried calling nothing. They pushed me back into the cell. They treat you like you are no human. I can see there is a flight at 4:30 tomorrow to Kuala Lumpur but I have not been told which flight I am gonna be on. I find it hard to believe that if they lied once, they wouldn't do it again.... I am dreading if tomorrow they are going to tell me there is no flight...

You are supposed to have 10k THB (can be in another currency) cash with you when entering with a visa on arrival, so for this they could also have denied you.
They didn't ask for it.

Did you get the option to buy your own ticket and fly out asap by yourself?
When first denied and detained, you are able to go back to an embassy and fly in with new visa, or you have quarantine before a new enter to the country?
they told me that most airlines won't accept me. Plus, the airline said they'd pay for the ticket - why would I refuse?

Okay. Thanks for everyone for replying. I was concerned that the guards could do something to me as I heard the horror stories about prison in Thailand. If you say there were other reports of detention but no physical abuse, it makes me feel slightly better. Also, thanks for clarifying about the signing of the paper. I didn't sign it so I don't have to pay for it at least because I don't have enough cash on me anyway. As for digital nomadism, I do pay the tax to my home country. If I could get a long-term for this kind of work in Thailand, I'd do so. But I enquired about it and was told that I need a sponsorship letter from employer but the employer is not thai. Thans everyone for information

In detention room in Suvarnabhumi. Don't know what's happening

Ok. It is a true story. It is an inaccuracy. It was not intentional. I flew from KL on the 12th but when I was being processed in the immigration it was the 13th. 13th was the first day in detention when the airline told me that they would book the ticket for me for 14th. But on the 14th I came to the warden of the reception area and was told that I am flying on the 15th... But on the 15th 3 hours before departure I received a call to the reception of the detention area from RJ who told me that I had to book my own ticket. I was out of KL on from 10:10 pm on the 12th. 15-12=3 days.
