One year multiple entry visa.

In Ray's case above, assuming his 2008 visa was a 12 month one, just before the expiry he could have done a border run and re-entry, and gained a further 12 month permission to stay - thereby avoiding the need for the 2009 visa.

I have a non-o visa thats ends 10/2-10 multientry , so if i go to Lao the 9/2 and re-entry 10/2 do i get 12 months then?

If it is an OA visa and if you come back on the 9th, yes you have one more year. But you'll be on an extension of stay as your visa will die on Feb 10. If you wish to leave Thailand during this year, you need to buy a re-entry-permit, single or multi. If you leave without this permit, you will have to get a new visa from outside Thailand again.

Thx! its a non-"o" visa iam 53 and had when i get it 800k in the bank, so if i go over and back on the 9/2 whit re-entry
premit. Then i get 12 more nice months here.
I have mulitple stamp that say re-entry permit fee paid. I paid it when i get the one year non-"o".
Do i still need to go to Immi or?

A standard non immigrant "O" visa from the UK will get you 15mths here, then you have to reapply for a new visa, this can be done thru an office/embassy ( UK ) outside Thailand ie; Laos, cambodia or Myranmar for a small price ( about 100GBP ) so you have your new visa without the expense of travelling back to the UK. No money in the bank is required unless you apply for a retirement visa.

This permits you to re-enter Thailand on your multiple entrys without charge, imagine when you go to Laos and pay your ฿1500 ... THEN you pay it again when you re-enter Thailand!
Hey! ... 4 exits every 90 days @ ฿1500 = ฿6000 ? Thats about the cost of your visa!!

No. The OP has a non O visa. If you go to Laos and come back on the 9th, you will get another 90 days, not a year. During that time you can apply for a 1 year extension at immigration based on retirement or marriage if you qualify.

I went to Immi at Airport on 8/2 askt if i need a re-entprm or not, the offiser say no you don`t need it you have re-ent ok.
Then he lookt at my NoN O visa and say if you gho to Amb in Lao you get 3 Month Extention, i askt him i need go to Lao you no mke here? Hi say no you go to Lao you get it.... Oki i go to Lao 9/2 and to Consul at 10/2, aply fore exten the boy ther sat we only make new visa no exten...... ok then i need a turist 6 month dubbel entry please he writhe on the aply and say tomorrow after 13.00 you get your Visa.
So 11/2 i go to consul to get my Visa among 300-400 more pepole after 1,5 h i get it, dident chek so well but lookt ok.
When i come to the passcontrol they give me 2 month i say what do inot have dubbelent he say no you have singel....
