    • 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, Can someone tell me what i should do now, The Woolwich/Barclays didn't return the Qa yesterday, i phoned the court this morning and have been advised it's been struck out. Should i just file judgement or phone the woolwich and speak to them first. I think i just won my case

Hi, i couldn't wait any longer and i phoned Barclays Lit Dept yesterday afternoon, asking if they wanted to settle before i passed a judgement, the guy was a bit rude really telling me that he couldn't do that due to the judgement by default, i kindly explained to him that i had contacted the court and it was down to me to file the judgement against them, and that i was calling to see if he wanted to settle before i did this. He is e mailing me my settlement letter with an offer this morning, he said that i have to sign it and fax it back and the money will be credited to my account. Just waiting to see what he offers me, i can claim the court costs cant I?

not sure if this helps anyone but i have some direct numbers for the lit dept 0207 116 4523 Tom Hicky, 0207 116 1944 Charlie Starlie, and 0207 116 5634 Paul Quinn.:D

I would ring them again, and tell them that you have your finger on the return key ready to file judgement and if they don't send you the email settling by the end of the day you will file the judgement. You dictate the time scale not them

I'm really peeved now, still no letter from the woolwich, i just phoned the court to see how long i had to pass judgement, and the court advised that a Qa was filed by the bank, but late, and has been accepted, and is now with the judge. should i still try to see if the woolwich will settle.

Hi, just a quick update, i have spoken to Barclays who say they still want to settle, but as of today they havn't yet, they have advised me that my figures and their figures differ. I have advised them that i got the list of charges from them in the first place.

Also just for a bit of info, i got a booklet through from Barclays yesterday advising me about the account change from the Woolwich to them and it explained charges and how you will now be charged £35 per day and not £35 per item for bounced cheques, unpaid direct debits etc. I think this means that if you have 4 unpaid dd's in one day you only get charged the one £35.00 but i could be wrong.

Also has anyone heard the the Alliance & Leicester are now reviewing their charges and believe it will be around £4.50 for an unpaid item instead of £35.00. Good News if it happens.

Hi Guys, Just a quick update, have received my settlement letter today for the full amount plus costs and interest, i'm now £8000 better off, what can i spend it on...............

As Thailand suggested i have scratched out the confidentially clause, and have also put on the bottom of the letter that i will inform the court in writing when i receive the money in my account and not before. Barclays have said that it can take between 1 day and a week for the money to go in, oh well just so long as it does. I just would like to say a big thank you to everyone on this site for the encouragment and help that you give, dont think i could have got this far without it, and also good luck to everyone who has just started out claiming. My husbands friend has asked me to help him claim against Nat West, so here i go again, once the money is in a donation will be on its way to you........ :D :D :D
