    • 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 had an unsecured loan via Northern rock and managed to do a deal with them to write of around £1500.00 which was the total amount of interest on the loan.

 

Depending on your circumstances they will do a deal. I requested the CCA agreement which was enforceable however it wasn't enforced. They accepted my offer after several letters...... It will be interesting to see how you get on.........

 

Best Of Luck!

Have posted the letter via recorder delivery today but the clerk advised me that it may take longer due to the postal strikes, within the info i read you have to give them 12 days +2 days for post to reply to the request?

 

When do i count the 14days from???/

 

Any advice would be gratefully appreciated.

 

Also once i get correspondence from Northern Rock i will need a little help as to see if the loan agreement is enforceable.

 

Look forward to your advice

Hi

 

When was your loan taken out and do you have PPI?

 

Just wondering as my loan was taken out in 2004 and had PPI - but someone on here said it wasn't enforceable because didn't have a separate agreement for PPI. I didn't post it up, he just knew that from how I set out the details from the agreement (I'm reclaiming PPI).

 

I sent a SAR back in August and they replied within 2 weeks - they did have the agreement.

Hi,

 

The 12 + 2 days start from when they receive your request.

 

Regarding the agreement, best thing to do is post it up on this thread, removing any personal details.

 

Regards.

Sorry for the late reply.

 

My loan was taken out in February 2006 and i did not take the PPI out.

 

I have just checked on the status of the recorded letter and it is still working its way through the postal system so will keep you informed of any progress.

 

maroondevo52,

 

I do not have a scanner so i am unable to post the agreement removing all my personal details.

I will wait and see and possibly be asking for further advice once they have sent communication and then i may type out the agreement to then decide with your help if this is an enforceable loan.

 

I look forward to any replys.

 

Best Regards

Steve

Hi Everyone,

 

Ok an update i posted the letter on the 18th October and today i have had a reply from Northern Rock

 

The letter reads:

 

I refer to your letter of 18th October 2009, which has been passed to me for consideration.

In fulfillment of your request under section 77 of the consumer credit act 1974, i enclose herewith a copy of your executed credit agreement and the applicable terms and conditions, together with a statement of account.

If the enclosed information discloses any item that you wish to dispute, you should in the first instance write to our complaints team at the above address.

 

Yours Sincerely

 

BLA BLA BLA

 

Also included is a photocopy of the agreement and a photocopy of the terms and conditions with a statement of account.

 

I will try to get this uploaded so you can all see if i can dispute this.

 

Does anyone know from the information i have given if this is enforceable??

 

Look forward to your replys and thanks for your help.

 

Regards

Steve

IdainFife,

 

Thankyou for your reply,

 

I have signed it at the bottom of the agreement just above the date...

 

So at a quick glance you are saying it is enforceable?

 

:D:D Sorry to laugh, Steve. What Ida meant was .. did you sign it at the bank or at home or some other place ?

cancellation rights also i see there in no PPI on this agreement, does what you have been or had opaid monthly match with what the repayments terms are?

Ida,

 

I have checked the white fixed sum (1st scan) and can not see any thing about cancellation rights?

 

I was offered the opportunity to purchase the PPI with the loan but i refused this, it was only verbal communication over the telephone at the time of application of the loan.

Even at a quick glance on the pink copy that i scanned i can not see anything to do with cancellation rights....

 

Would this make the loan unenforceable????

The Consumer Protection (Distance Selling) Regulations 2000 (the "Regulations") came into force in the UK on 31st October 2000.

 

The Regulations aim to protect consumers contracting at a distance from the supplier, where the consumer does not have the benefit of meeting face to face with the supplier and inspecting the goods or services offered for sale.

 

Essentially the Regulations provide consumers with a right to:

receive clear information about the supplier, the goods or services and the sale before deciding to buy;

confirmation of this information in writing;

a cooling off period of 7 working days in which to withdraw from the contract; and

protection from payment card fraud.

 

In December 2007 the OFT worked with the Local Authority Trading Standard Services (TSS) to conduct a web sweep of 530 websites to assess whether online retailers are complying with the key requirements of the Regulations. The OFT reported its findings in March 2008 and in particular, noted a failure among retailers to provide adequate contact details and transparency in cancellation and refund rights.

 

Rather than cover all details of the Regulations, this article highlights the most important requirements including those considered by the OFT and TSS in their web sweep.

CitizenB,

 

Thankyou for your reply however i am a little confused by your quote, are you saying that the agreement that was entered between myself and Northern Rock is unenforceable due to them not adding a cancellation clause on the agreement that i signed and dated????

 

I look forward to your replies, also if it is an unenforceable agreement what is my next step.

 

Regards

Steve
