    • 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.

Hello everyone. This is my first post on the forum, I have read through a lot of the posts on here and wonder if you could offer me some advice.

 

I have fallen into a similar trap to most.

 

Taking out payday loans to repay other payday loans etc,

but have now reached a point where I realise enough is enough and I need to try and get my finances in order.

 

I have entered into a dmp, but they are flat out refusing to even negotiate with Minicredit saying I will need to handle the debt myself.

 

I posted a letter to my bank removing all CPA from the payday loan companies including Minicredit.

 

The next thing I did may be very stupid, but seemed like a good idea at the time.

 

I came into a bit of money so decided to use it to rollover the Minicredit loan,

giving me at least a bit more time to either negotiate a payment plan or scrape the money together to repay the loan.

 

Over the next few days the bank had honoured the CPA request and returned the money paid to Minicredit back to my account.

 

I received a text from Minicredit saying I had made a fraudulent charge back and they had the right to start legal action.

 

Today the debt has been passed straight to Opos who are asking me to contact them to pay.

They have already started adding charges for the debt being passed to them.

 

I want to pay the debt.

 

I took out the loan fully intending to repay.

 

I thought I was doing right by entering into a DMP but now the situation is causing me real headaches,

the situation is escalating quickly and I don't even know where to begin to negotiate with these people.

 

I would really appreciate any advice you could offer.

not an issue.

 

if you know what you should be paying

 

DO IT DIRECT TO THE PDL

ignore opos.

 

dx

please don't hit Quote...just type we know what we said earlier..

DCA's view debtors as suckers, marks and mugs

NO DCA has ANY legal powers whatsoever on ANY debt no matter what it's Type

and they

are NOT and can NEVER  be BAILIFFS. even if a debt has been to court..

If everyone stopped blindly paying DCA's Tomorrow, their industry would collapse overnight...

Also ignore their threats about legal action. They wouldnt have passed the debt to a dca if they were serious about fraud.

 

However, since they have accused you of a criminal offence, please dont back down. Call them out on it and tell them you will be taking legal advice unless they issue a formal apology.

 

Also make sure you inform the oft with a full complaint.
