    • 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.

Well... After returning from a hard week travelling around Europe (unfortunately with work and not pleasure :( ) I was surprised :eek: to find a grey letter from SC&M on my doormat. I was over the moon to read that they wanted to pay me back all the money Lloyds had mistakenly taken from my account over the past 6 years :) !

Other than the same old conditions that most people seem to have received on their settlement letters ("don't tell anyone about this coz it's our little secret") everything seems to be in order.

However, since making my claim on MCOL, Lloyds have seen fit to extract a further £90 from my account. Now I suppose in the grand scheme of things, I should be grateful I'm getting all my money back, but the righteous part of me (the part that got me to actually make this claim in the first place) wants this remaining £90 back too :mad: !

Now then... am I within my rights to tap SC&M up for this additional cash, or will I have to raise another claim :confused: ? Any thoughts would be gratefully received.

 

Thanks,

Stubbs

 

CONGRATULATIONS on your settlement.

 

You can phone them and ask them to include the further charges, if they wont then you need to start again.

Hey everyone.

Well, it's taken me 6 months to get this payment but I'd just like to thank everyone who has answered my questions and given great advice - even if they have been bloody obvious ones :rolleyes: ! This site has been great and I've already been recommending you to colleagues at work :grin: . I'm also talking my brother through a claim for ~£2000 too :lol:

keep up the great work, and as soon as I receive the final payment, a donation will be on it's way.

Thanks once again !

Stubbs :grin:

OK... I think I spoke too soon. I returned the offer letter to SC&M on Monday this week (first class obviously) and am now sitting here eagerly rubbbing my hands waiting with baited anticipation for my money to reappear on my online account. As of now, it has failed to materialise.

Has anyone else had a delay in receiving their money? Does it usually take several days for SC&M to feedback to Lloyds and then for them to recredit the account? We all know it can be credited instantly - the bank are all to quick to remove it from the account!

 

Thanks
