At any rate, the OP has informed us he went the DIY route so all this talk of Phnom Penh agents is moot.

Lots of replies to this topic are moot. But thanks to the people that actually gave advice.

Look at this way, your post helped a few lonely farang to keep themselves amused for a time so now you don't have to go to the wat to make merit ????

I finally got a legit extension and multi entry from Samut Prakan immigration. In case anyone else has the same problem when ditching the agent route, here are the documents they requested:

1. Copy of TM30 receipt we filled out when I first arrived back from Cambodia.

2. Copy of passport with 1st and current visa and info page.

3. 1900 Baht

4. Copy of wife's ID card

5. Copy of our marriage certificate from the USA (I did the non marriage option, but they still wanted the marriage certificate).

6. Copy of house ownership certificate

7. 4x6 photo

8. Original bank certificate showing bank balance.

9. Copies of all pages from  bank book, and this is important, they wanted a transaction on the day of the application. I had one from two days ago, but that was not enough.

That said, those using an agent to get around requirements that they do not meet will eventually run into issues.

I can bet never in my lifetime at least. It is a constant source of some decent incomes for people unfortunate to be born in Thailand and not have any access to earn in dollars.
