    • 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.

What was the outcome of your dealing with Mackensie Hall? I am currently in default with QQ and despite offering a 6 month plan of paying back £130 a month they have refused. I'm waiting for it to be passed over and would love to know what happened with you.

 

I had (stupidly) got into a downward spiral of various payday loans. All of which have been perfectly nice and have agreed repayment plans all except QQ. I have no intention of not paying as I borrowed the money but just got out of my depth and want to be able to pay it back with a reasonable but afforrdable offer.

 

Any advice greatly received!!

I've just had a look at my credit file and with an outstanding balance of £992 when it was transferred to Mackenzie Hall they defaulted me straight away and have pestered me ever since. Now that they've defaulted me and my credit file is buggered for 6 years they can absolutely go **** themselves.

Snevillio,

 

When did you fail to repay quick quid? Did you try and contact them or vice versa?

 

How long before Mackenzie hall got involved, what has your dealings with them been?

 

I failed to repay last week and have heard nothing. I kind of expect a default but plan to try and settle asap

I would challenge the default sum, theoretically it should only be the original loan amount plus one months interest they default on, if the default contains charges it is incorrect.

 

Report Mackenzie Hall to Alan Stewart at East Ayrshire Trading Standards for this, and report them to the Information Commissioners office.

 

I am going to do another government petition that only the original creditor can place a default on our credit file and they must do this within 3 months of the missed payment, if they do it afterwards it can only show for 3 months.....

It started probably Feb this year, tried to come up with a payment plan but they wanted 1/3rd of the amount which i coudln't stretch to. MuckHall got involved in June and pretty much defaulted me immediately. I explained to them about not being in work after reundancy but they just called and kept on sending letters, i've just seen one now that talks about a doorstep visit so i'm sure theres much more fun to come.

 

I think the initial loan was £900, i paid £100 when i could and the default amount is £992 so its probably just the original fee + 1 months interest although they would have added a 'dishonour' fee into that of £12 or £25, don't know if that makes a difference?

 

Dealing with Muck Hall is impossible, they never stopped harrassing me, wouldn't talk about any kind of settlement or payment plan offer and that fella at trading standards just said it had nothing to do with him.
