In February I returned a product to Finland having paid £40 duty to HMRC via DHL.
Your MSE article rightly advises to claim a refund using HMRC form C285. At first attempt it was impossible to complete due to the details required. I rang DHL tax and duty team and they immediately provided all the reference numbers I needed to complete the 7 page form. Well done DHL.
