    • 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.

I'll get Mr Bookie to check out trains cost this week-end and see if I can manage, but it's not looking too hopeful at the moment, Booklet no 2 needed a cheque for £150 for his final week-long goodbye-old-friends school camping trip in July :mad:, so....

 

Don't worry, if there's not enough pasties for everyone, I'll do without, no honestly, I promise, it is NOT a problem!!! :razz:

NOOOOO!!!

 

You are not getting out of this one...if there is only one pasty in the whole of Cornwall, you are being strapped down and force fed...you will not escape the gastronomic delights and pleasures of Cornwall...if the trade off is that you bring a tonne and a half of "rice salad" and we have to devour the lot, then it is a price worth paying...

I'd have made more of an effort to be available. :-D
That may be so...but please...make a little less effort on the "rice salad" - to me "salad" consists of lettuce, tomato and cucumber...rice is a staple, not a leaf...

Sorry, folks, but Bookie definitely out. :-( (Bloody kids and their unreasonable demands for food! :rolleyes:) I've just done my accounts and have reached the conclusion that there is a hole in my bank account somewhere, it is the only logical explanation.
