UK Tier 5 Youth Mobility Visa - "Refused entry at border" definition - Child Showing a Message Written in a Notebook

I am a Canadian applying for a UK Tier 5 Youth Mobility Visa.

At one point during the application process, it asks if I have ever been denied entry into the UK, but I am not sure what to answer with.

A few months ago I was returning to the UK again after visiting it recently on a tourist visa. I was coming for the birthday of my friend and her son (their birthdays are close together).

Immigration was wondering why I was back again so soon and were a bit suspicious about my funds so they detained me for around 3-4 hours. They took my fingerprints and interviewed me. Afterwards they phoned my friend and after talking to her on the phone (she explained everything) they let me go through and enter the UK.

So in the end, they let me enter the UK.

So was I technically refused entry? Should I say that I was refused entry on my application? I'm afraid that it looks bad and might automatically get me denied, even though I was let through in the end.

You can apply up to 6 months before you want your visa to begin. Then you will have an additional 90 days from this date to then enter the UK and collect your Biometrics Residence Permit.
