    • 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.

hi pete

second claim was done a little different in that it started with 'rows' between myself and a heidi daniels at leeds customer services via emails. i didn't go as far as filing a claim - just told her i'd won 6.5k already and i'd be going to court if necessary to get the other moolah i wanted... back!! lol (still waiting for the cheque). i've had it on good authority from a little person at leeds called paul berry - that "whilst we dont usually pay by cheque" er hummmmm WHAT?? lol they will be sending me a CHEQUE in the post by thursday - we'll see eh?

if there is no cheque by then, i'll start my mcol.

If i've been helpful in any way....then tip my scales over there!

hmmm.... i'm thinking that maybe claim no.3 should start soon too lol

judging by the last one, it seems i ask them for money - they tell me that they don't owe me any - i tell them i want it anyway - they offer me more than what i'm asking for!!! such fun lol

 

it looks like a good plan to stay in the red, then i claim, then they give me more money - can't think of a better way to save lol lol lol (do i sound irresponsible now?? lol)

If i've been helpful in any way....then tip my scales over there!

i've got a good one pete!! back in the 70's, i had an account with midland bank at my local branch. i still have the pass book and everything. there's still a total of £63 in it. i forgot all about it. i have been trying for the best part of 12 months to get the money plus interest owed from the account. i've written to the financial ombudsman, the bank, uncle tom cobley and all to get it - they all deny any knowledge of me ever having an account pre hsbc even though i've supplied them with a copy of the pass book, account number, sort code, previous names and addresses!!! far from going in with a rifle, i don't think anyone's willing to help me on this one lol. NO i'm not going to stop trying!! lol

If i've been helpful in any way....then tip my scales over there!
