what now? (UK LE Question) (visited me for questioning)

need some advice, i'll try put this clearly.

-someone sent 30g of cannibis to my address & name from netherlands -border control caught it -2 non-uniform 'investions unit' police visisted me to question me, denied any knowledge of it -said they were going to investigate into bank accounts ect and arrest if they find anything ( i gave them my bank accounts number/ebay name ) -this was over 3 weeks ago now, heard nothing since from police -recieved letter from border agency saying they have 30g of cannibis addressed to me and if i want it put i have to make a case for it by a certain date

i havent ordered anything since although 2 packages i had en route already ordred came fine, 1 even being from netherlands lol.

where do i go from here? is there someway to request any information they have on me? can i have this information removed? is it safe to make orders? domestic at least?

You can if you want make a request for information via the Data Protection Act (1998) - HMRC has a guide here - https://www.gov.uk/government/publications/data-protection-act-dpa-information-hm-revenue-and-customs-hold-about-you/data-protection-act-dpa-information-hm-revenue-and-customs-hold-about-you I'm not sure what you hope to achieve by asking them for this information.

Personally I would say you'd be crazy to order anything from abroad (unless you move) as they will no doubt have your name and address flagged. You should forget about the 30gs of cannabis as well.

someone sent that to your address and it wasn't you?? that sounds very unlikely or you are just covering your own ass on reddit, aka using SWIM. good job on denying everything but i wouldn't have even given them bank details or anything until I have some kind of legal representation to be honest. as far as where to go from here? well, not ordering from holland again would be a good start and consider your address burned. I would at least lie low for a few months if you are going to use it again. Not sure about getting information removed or requesting it, maybe someone else on here has that info. Domestic small orders might be safe, but maybe get some tester packages when you feel the heat has died down...good luck
