What they do not want is 400k from bankbook method to extend for any new applicants - it is now 40k family income which can be both/either husband/wife. If you use this method they may ask to see bankbook but there is no requirement to have any set amount in it. Reports this week from Phuket is that they do require you produce such evidence of ability to support your stay here either with bank books or Thai credit card slips. But as said there is no requirement to have 400k in the account.
