    • 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.

CONGRATULATIONS TRISTAR

I am sooooooo pleased for you, it has given me a boost knowing someone in a similar situation has been refunded.

Hubby put his cash point card in a machine ( was a silly thing to do I did tell him to ask over the counter) and had his card retained for 'unauthorised usage' :rolleyes: and no checking online for us either. So maybe we will have to wait for a letter.

Tristar have a great time with your winnings, wish me luck!

Jane

Thanks willow,

 

I was worried about what might happen next week, so this was a suprise to say the least. I will go into the branch on Monday to check that the monies are in the account and that I have full access to it and that my card is active and can be used as before. I will update as soon as I know all the details. Hang on in there willow I am sure it will all come good;)

 

Keep the faith and thanks again, it just shows you can take these boys on and win:razz:

Just an update:

 

Went into the branch today (as instructed via internet message) to get the "indicator" taken off and to confirm that my card could be used as before and to check my balance, as I am unable to do so online as they have removed the account from internet banking. I was told that the branch could not do this and that I should speak to the collections dept, which I could have done from home and saved some petrol and parking costs:( Still, never mind eh!!

 

Well the balance is as expected, they have repaid themselves my o/d balance and the account is in a healthy very positve state. They offered me the chance to make a withdrawal if i so wished.

 

I requested the "indicator" be lifted, and was told by "collections" that this would take 4 days:( , as opposed to the 4 minutes it took to put the damn thing on !!

 

Still all is paid, victory on round one is complete and round two will commence shortly.

 

Janet M, is there a template letter available to use to inform the court, and should I do anything on MCOL to advise no further action??

 

Willow, how you getting on?? please link your thread so I can follow please

 

Cheers all and happy claiming;)

Hiya Tristar,

 

Congratulations on your win!!!

 

Your letter to the court just needs to give reference to your claim number and the defendant has paid the claim in full. No more than a couple of sentences.

 

Enjoy your spending spree and good luck with claim 2.
