I'm not saying I didn't make mistakes, the rule is 2 entries per calender year which I am still under and any other border I would've been fine

You most likely would not had an issue at for eg Nong Khai friendship bridge.

 

Think you are currently in PP?

 

If planning to fly into Thailand make sure that you have 20k baht or equivalent currency.

 

The airline will require you to provide proof of onward flight.

 

Have a clear prepared "story" of your plans in Thailand and print out of onward flight.

No! You must have the cash. If entering by air at Suvarnabhumi or Don Muang with that rejection stamp from Poipet/Aran, make absolutely sure you have this. The rejection stamp is a suggestion to airport immigration that they should deny entry and try to force you back to your home country.

I can't withdraw money here fffff

The plot thickens.

So you are a traveling in a foreign country and can't access the equivalent to 1000baht. 

Via ATM or whatever.

Amazing .

 

I didn't know I had to activate my card for overseas and I can't do that until Monday, don't judge.

Tomorrow is Monday so no problem.

Easy to say don't judge 

You are in Cambodia with very little funds or ATM access.

But my flight is today, should I cancel it?

No. 

Those flights are not refundable.

Do you have the onward flight to show airline at PP airport? 

Is the flight into BKK or DMK

Good answers to both.

One piece of advice.

When questioned by immigration officer (may not be) ....

Have a clear precise outline of your plans. 

Have hotel address on the ready to show.

Book maybe ones pay at hotel .

Don't bring a gf or other distractions into conversation.

Have onward flight handy to show on screenshot etc 

Good luck.

Think you will be fine.

Thats what i Posted

You quoted the OP ....

And this is what he stated....

 

"Yes I have an onward flight ticket"

 

What bit didn't you understand.

An onward flight means flight out of Thailand in the future. 

The OP has one.

The Op posted he had an onward flight into  BKK Suvarnabhumi  which clearly isn't an onward flight unless you plan to disagree with your own postings

Stop.

The OP reply was directed to my two separate questions.

 

My first question was ...do you have onward flight.

 

My second question was which airport BKK or DMK.

 

His answer was ....

Yes has onward flight and 

Flying into BKK.

But I appreciate your help, if I have 20,000 baht in my Thai bank account will that work?

You are naive. Prepare THB20000 cash (no ATM before Immigration, onward travel ticket and a rental contract will help you at Airport.

Read OP posts.

 

He is currently boarding flight to thailand.

 

He cannot provide/show the 20k.

 

He already stated that he has onward flight. 

 

Regarding rental contract that would actually harm his chances of entry.

Seems rather strange that as a " tourist" you are attempting a third re-entry.

 

The IO at the airport might just ask you, why you keep re entering consecutively on a tourist visa.

 

Perhaps you should apply for a proper visa, if indeed you actually qualify.   That would put your mind at rest and solve the issue.

OP never told his past history of entries and extensions, he only mentioned this is his 3rd entry by land. He very well could have a long string of various entries and extension and that is the reason for his denial.

Strictly speaking, an IO has no right to insist on CASH as proof of funds for a traveller's living expenses but some IOs like to act dumb sometimes.

 

Do you have your bank book with you? If not, do you have the bank's e-banking app on your phone so that, after landing in Bangkok, you can call up the statement of the balance onto your screen?

Yes I have mobile banking and bank statements to show I don't have my bank book although that wouldn't display a balance anyway I've never used it
