    • 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.

Nobody has luck with any emails as far as I can make out. Not only that I get the impression from the Facebook groups that as soon as an email address is discovered – and certainly as soon as a telephone number is discovered, they are changed.

Begin by sending a letter of complaint. Don't give them a deadline but you will be waiting for about 10 days before you decide to take the next action.

Read around the sub- forum as many as the EVRi stories as you can manage. That means lots of them. Take a couple of days until you understand how it all goes and the principles involved. Follow this link – EVRi – and that will help to get you going.

Come back here when you have sent your letter of complaint and you have done the reading.

If you like the help that you are getting here then make sure they know about it on the Facebook groups. The groups are good for getting people together but they seem to have bit stodgy in the way that help is provided and it seems to me that most people don't bother to pursue their claims but simply give up with resignation

As much as I prefer to be the one who lays down the timescales and to keep control of the complaints process, I think given the fact that they are all in such disarray and that we are so close to Christmas, it is probably worth waiting until the New Year.

I have in mind particularly that if you incur costs issuing the claim and then suddenly in the New Year your items turn up, then you will be left having to continue the action to recover your costs and nothing else.

Of course you would be successful and I would certainly encourage you to maintain your claim for every last penny but maybe it will be prudent to wait until after the festive season.

It's up to you, you can send a letter of claim now and then issue the claim in the first week of January, or you can wait until first week of January and then send a letter of claim and then issue about the 18th or so of January.

Tell us how you want to play it.
