    • Hello,

      On 15/1/24 booked appointment with Big Motoring World (BMW) to view a mini on 17/1/24 at 8pm at their Enfield dealership.  

      Car was dirty and test drive was two circuits of roundabout on entry to the showroom.  Was p/x my car and rushed by sales exec and a manager into buying the mini and a 3yr warranty that night, sale all wrapped up by 10pm.  They strongly advised me taking warranty out on car that age (2017) and confirmed it was honoured at over 500 UK registered garages.

      The next day, 18/1/24 noticed amber engine warning light on dashboard , immediately phoned BMW aftercare team to ask for it to be investigated asap at nearest garage to me. After 15 mins on hold was told only their 5 service centres across the UK can deal with car issues with earliest date for inspection in March ! Said I’m not happy with that given what sales team advised or driving car. Told an amber warning light only advisory so to drive with caution and call back when light goes red.

      I’m not happy to do this, drive the car or with the after care experience (a sign of further stresses to come) so want a refund and to return the car asap.

      Please can you advise what I need to do today to get this done. 
       

      Many thanks

    • We have finally managed to obtain the transcript of this case.

      The judge's reasoning is very useful and will certainly be helpful in any other cases relating to third-party rights where the customer has contracted with the courier company by using a broker.
      This is generally speaking the problem with using PackLink who are domiciled in Spain and very conveniently out of reach of the British justice system.

      Frankly I don't think that is any accident.

      One of the points that the judge made was that the customers contract with the broker specifically refers to the courier – and it is clear that the courier knows that they are acting for a third party. There is no need to name the third party. They just have to be recognisably part of a class of person – such as a sender or a recipient of the parcel.

      Please note that a recent case against UPS failed on exactly the same issue with the judge held that the Contracts (Rights of Third Parties) Act 1999 did not apply.

      We will be getting that transcript very soon. We will look at it and we will understand how the judge made such catastrophic mistakes. It was a very poor judgement.
      We will be recommending that people do include this adverse judgement in their bundle so that when they go to county court the judge will see both sides and see the arguments against this adverse judgement.
      Also, we will be to demonstrate to the judge that we are fair-minded and that we don't mind bringing everything to the attention of the judge even if it is against our own interests.
      This is good ethical practice.

      It would be very nice if the parcel delivery companies – including EVRi – practised this kind of thing as well.

Hi Everyone

 

I’m getting the ball rolling to remove some defaults (May-06 to Aug-08 that have been satisfied with egg.

 

Is this the right starting point?

Dear Sir or Madam

Credit Card No: **** **** **** ****

After recently obtaining a copy of my credit file from Experian I was concerned to note that your company has placed a "Default" notice against an account in my name.

 

 

Further to this I have no recollection of ever receiving such a notice, and I therefore require you to substantiate this data at your earliest convenience.

 

1. You must supply me with a true copy of the alleged agreement you refer to. This is my right under your obligation to supply a copy of the agreement under the legislation contained within s.78 (1) Consumer Credit Act 1974 (s.77 (1) for fixed sum credit). Your obligation also extends to providing a statement of account. I enclose a £1 postal order in payment of the statutory fee, PO Serial Number 1587 716732.

 

2. You must supply me with a signed true and certified copy of the original default notice

 

3. Any deed of assignment if the debt was sold on

I would request that this data is provided to myself within the next 28 days, if you are unable to provide this data then I must insist that it is removed from my files as unsubstantiated.

 

Yours faithfully

Mr mabore

 

Thanks

Hi Cmdenny & steven4064

 

This is the reply I got from egg

 

Dear Mabore

 

Your Credit Agreement Request

 

Further to your recent request, I have pleasure in enclosing a copy of your signed Credit Agreement in accordance with your rights under the Consumer Credit Act 1974.

 

 

Yours Sincerely

They sent this back to me on 25th Oct 07 and didn't even mentioned the default :(

 

What would be the best course of action next because the 28 days have now passed?

 

Thanks guys

Thanks Mabore

 

What they have sent you is a properly executed agreement. So, next step?

 

You say they have put defaults on your credit file - why are these not correct? There is not enough detail in your first and subsequent posts to tell.

Hi Steven

 

After being declined for a business bank account I obtained a copy of my credit file to discover a default entry (Mar 06) entered. I never received a default notice from Egg Card at all. The account is paid in full and closed.

 

Thanks

Hi Steven

 

It’s on the basis it isn’t legitimate. Doesn’t a default notice have to be served under (s87(1) of the Consumer Credit Act) before it is applied (I read that somewhere)?

 

There could be a case regarding unlawful charges but I don’t have any statements? All my payments were made by direct debit with a few manual payments.

 

This what my file is showing:

Sorry Mabore, the first one was OK, I looked at it quickly and didn't recognise it for what it was :o

 

I have spoken to one of my colleagues about this. He wonders whether you have misinterpreted what is meant by served. The term 'served' really means it has been posted to your address - not quite the same as you receieving it, I know.

 

We think that you only chance of getting the default removed is if Egg can not produce a copy of the default notice. Even then, it may not be possible to get it removed.

So should I just follow the steps on removing a default from w w w learnmoney. com etc. And if they can't produce the default (it's been over a month) or they try to fob me off with some bank talk could I take it to court.

 

Cheers

 

Mabore

What they have already sent fulfills their obligation under the CCA 1974 - there is no requirment for them to send that under the CCA.

 

I think what you will have to do is send an SAR under s7 of the Data Protection Act 1984. Ask them for all information they hold about you but specifically ask for a copy of the default notice. If they have it, they must supply it under the DPA.

Data Protection Act 1998 - Subject Access Request

 

Dear Sirs,

 

Please supply me with all of the personal data that you hold to which I am entitled under the Data Protection Act 1998. In particular, I require an original copy of any default notices, complete list of transactions and charges relating to my history with your organisation. Alternatively, a complete set of statements will be acceptable.

 

Additionally, where there has been any event in my account history over this period which has required manual intervention by any member of your staff, or any other person, I require disclosure of any indication or manual notes which have either caused or resulted in that manual intervention, or other evidence of that manual intervention in relation to my banking business with you.

 

I enclose the statutory maximum fee of 10 pounds. You have 40 days in which to comply.

For the purpose of identification, please see the attached sheet for other names and addresses I have used in the last three years, along with my account details.

Thanks

Hi Steven

 

Egg have replied back to my request (S.A.R - (Subject Access Request)) with all my old statements but still no default notice. Looking through the statement they have charged me with 2 overlimit fees (20 each) . Could I use that as a starting point to get the default removed or demand it to be removed because they haven't supplied a true signed original default notice?

Thanks

You should reclaim the 2 lots of charges anyway. However, on its own, it is probably not enough to get the default removed as I doubt you can argue that you would not have defaulted had it not been for the charges.

 

However, you are entitled to a copy of the default notice. i would write and point out that they have not fully complied with your DPA request. there is a letter in the templates library for DPA default.

Hi Steven

 

I received the following letter from egg this morning regarding the default. Basically they don't have it.

Should I send letter 2 for non - comp after the 40 days have passed? If they can't send me a copy and I've never received one I'm not giving up on it.

 

Thanks
