Motown Unreleased

[lakedistrictlad1]

I've just phoned UK Custom Clearance and told I should have had a letter to say there was import tax to pay. I never got the letter - hence the delay.
I've just had the letter emailed. For all those in the same situation..it's £17.14 folks!
So if any of you are in the same boat - DHL is not the place to contact. Phone Customs on 0208 231 0900 and give them the 19 digit ref number which starts with 'GM' - or if you don't have that, just give your name and address.

Lesson learned. Don't buy from Udiscover in the U.S again!

It is not Customs collecting this, it is the authorised clearance agent of DHL Global Mail US in the UK - Custom clearance Ltd. What they fail to inform you is that the £17.14 includes a handling charge payable to them as well as import duty!!!
