    • 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 received a court summons this morning from Northampton court filed by Geoffrey Leaver Solicitors in respect of open uni course fee's.

 

Long story short, as with all the other courses i was on, i assumed my grant would just pay / renew and i wouldn't have to pay the fee's.

 

Anyway after trying to object over and over i agreed to make payment, but only as they intended to take me to court and i hadn't made any leeway with the uni, unfortunately by the time it was resolved i had missed the cut off for financial aid, so have been stuck paying it off when i can, i have paid over £400 over the last 6 months i rang them late October and explained i had been made unemployed but would try and make £40 payments if i could each month, and obv i would contact them when i was back in full time employment.

 

They said this would be fine, having just got back in to a temp job i was planing to call them up this week and make a payment but this morning received a court summons, no warning, no letter, nothing just a summons.

 

The fee's and interest have add an extra £130 to the bill and i don't know what to do, i thought it was wrong that i was paying in the first place, but my outstanding balance is back to where it was, and i had no warning, are they legally meant to warn you. I will be grudgingly pay the outstanding balance as i have been doing, but £130?!??! can they jump straight to this?

 

please advise.

 

NB I have no remaining documentation in relation to the original grant or the credit agreement, should i put this as a defense whilst i obtain copies, it was all online.
