Are you eligible for a VOA ?
What nationality passport will you be arriving on?
here is the link for UK Tourist Visa Exemption Dont believe agens they are generally there to make commision
They charge when you leave, not when you get here, in with the ticket these days. 800 baht, the robbers.

If you are in the USA, send it to the Thai Embassy in Los Angles...Express mail and enclose a return Express mail...State double entry. It's free and takes 5 business days.
Seems like we have got a new bunch of bar stool visa experts here..
The OP may be Indian and in that case he is eligible for a 15 days visa for purpose of tourism when he arrives to Thailand.
It is a proper visa, stamped in the passport.
It is also quite possible that the application fee has been temporarily dropped for this type of visa in the same way as it has been dropped for a tourist visa.
Visa on arrival
Transit visa is not intended for tourism and is given by Thai consulates/embassy's outside Thailand.
Tourist visa is intended for tourism and is also given by Thai consulates/embassys's outside of Thailand.
Both of theses visa types gets a visa stamp in the passport.
Visa types, Transit visa, Tourist visa
Visitors from 41 countries are allowed to enter and stay in Thailand for tourism purpose without a visa for a maximum of 30 days if arriving by air, 15 days if arriving over a land crossing.
In this case, no visa is stamped in the passport.
India is not one of those 41 countries.
Tourist visa exemption
The OP will not be able to get our of the airport upon arrival would be my guess.
I assumed that you were western European, so I agree with the quote above conserning my knowledge into the mysteries of visas. SorryQuote:
