Yeah? How long was it that they caught your stuff and sent you a letter? Isn't it more likely that they eventually charge you even more for not having spoken to them when you were summoned to? Instinctively I'd have called them right away and explained that I ordered it thinking it was legal, then cancelled the order but that it's been shipped anyway, I have proofs of this.. but this ain't my country and I'm not familiar with the law here, nor with drug related situation, in any country.. and I have a tendency to freak out big time for everything and anything and then beat myself up for having done stupid shit. Yep.
The seized package from china took forever before i heard from customs. Maybe 6 months (or more, not less). And the uk letter maybe 2 - 3 months.
Yeah you could think that it's more likely to get charged even more for not talking to them, but no, they'll just drop it. They are well aware that it's really hard to prove that you ordered it yourself, even if it in your case exists evidence. In most cases were people order drugs from abroad there aren't any
The letter don't say "you MUST call us!!", it's more like a friendly question for you to call them
If im not totally wrong (it was a couple of years ago) the letter goes something like:
"Hello! We've seized a package sent to you. You can call us on ×××-×××××× to have a word about this. If we don't hear from you by the ××/×× the package will get destroyed. Best wishes/ customs"
If you, for some reason, really need to call and talk to them, do NOT say what your instincts tells you to!! The only thing you should ever tell customs is that you have no fucking idea what package they are talking about cause you haven't ordered shit. So just destroy it, you don't care.
But it's easier not to call
I was really nervous when they took my sending from china (it had a tracking id so that's how i knew directly when they took it) but what people told me is exactly what i told you. And it worked out fine
Welcome to Sweden, where it's socially accepted to get pissed drunk and beat someone up, but not to sit at home, watch tv, eat pizza and smoke weed
