I was refused entry into the UK in mid-2013 as I did not have a return ticket, and also said something dumb, which was that I would work part-time whilst on holiday. I was sent to a holding room for long hours. Later they said I needed a visa if I had wished to enter the country and sent me back home.
I did some digging and found that those who had been refused do not need a visa after 10 years (for those who do not need a tourist visa). Now that it's 2024, do I still need that visa due to my history at Heathrow? It's been more than a decade and the last thing I want is to cause trouble at the airport whilst on a vacation. I have enough documents to prove that I have a career and financial means. Any helpful feedback is much appreciated.
