    • 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.

Just putting together the info for my claim against NW. Have spent ages reading threads & info on here so I hope I'm doing it right. Recieved details of my statements & charges back from them yesterday, so now to add them all up and get the relevant letter sent off. A quick total looks like about 1200 pounds.

Here's hoping. I'll keep you posted

Just had a thought.... Although I'm claiming back about £1200 from Nationwide I also have and index linked ISA saving account with them. Its doing OK and holds a few grand and is making a bit o cash for me for the long term future.

 

Are they likely to try and close this if I win my case against them?

 

I've only sent my prelim leter so far and (heard nothing back) and i'm waiting to send my LBA.

The rules on ISAs are different. If they retaliated by closing your ISA they would have effectively taken away the opportunity for a proportion of your tax free investment for the relevant year. This could dump a whole heap of problems on their laps if you felt like making an issue of it. I think that even Nationwide would baulk at this.

thanks. just have to wait and see what happens if i'm successful.

 

personally i think they'l be in deep doo doo if they try touching that account. I'm not in debt to Nationwide and the money in the ISA has been invested over a period of 7 or 8 years.

I don't think you need to worry - it would be a huge can of worms for them to open!;-)

I'd wait for the 14 days to run from the LBA until MCOL - I didn't hear a dickie bird for either although I could track and trace with royal mail online - so I knew they had received them. If they have received the LBA, wait the 14 days as that is that you gave them to respond

I didnt send my prelim letter by recorded delivery but I did with my LBA.

 

Have tried looking on the ROyal Mail website and it claims the information is not available online yet. I sent it over 2 weeks ago though!

 

That is strange - you can usually find out whether it was delivered within a couple of days on the first page and then have to wait to see a signature if there is one on a further link. I would have thought that it should be showing by now though

Ha! Recieved my bogoff letter from them today so now its Moneyclaim time!

Getting a bit worried now but its got to be done!

 

Good Luck Neil. There is nothing to worry about. Just take your time and the website will save your progress for you as you go along. The only problematic bit I found was filling in the particulars of claim because it doesn't like punctuation so, it took me about 3 tries to get it right.

 

Not long now....
