    • 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.

What was the date for Liani, was a directions / prelim hearing? If so you won't need a bundle just a couple of other docs which help give **** a nudge.

If it is for a full hearing, I would have thought you wold have had the directions given to you with the date of the hearing.

If it is for allocation then don't panic. Once you have a final date it will ask you to send documents and give you a time frame ( usually 14 days before the hearing.)

And Nick,

 

I dream of picking my clubs up again. Especially the ones that work (usually only on day one) :D

Well done Dave, fantastic.

I wonder if you could help me, I have posted these questions on my thread but no-one has answered me. I did not receive an AQ so I sent the suggested letter to my county court (copy to SC&M) where the case has been transferred with a draft order for directions - I sent this on 19th June but have received no reply. Should I chase the court to see if they are going to give me a court date or just sit tight for the time being.

Secondly, I am ready to file a claim for business with Lloyds - it is a partnership but on Moneyclaim online is says is it an individual or organisation - it is just myself and my husband so do I say organisation? Would be so grateful for your help, and well done again.

Thanks for the message Tina.

On point 1 I would suggest contacting the court to see if anything is happening.

On point 2 there are a couple of threads around for LTSB Business Accounts. Sorry, can't remember where but I will look as I am about to take on the Business side of things. MY ADVICE WOULD BE TO TAKE YOUR TIME AND READ THE BUSINESS THREADS WHEN YOU FIND THEM. Also, the general advice from this site seems to be forget MCOL and file directly at your local court - it saves time.

Sorry I can't help any further,

 

Dave.

Hi Dave

I'll post this on my thread but I got my court date through yesterday for the 10th September, small claims. It doesn't say anything about a court fee - will they ask for this nearer the time? I never had to do an AQ. The Judge has asked me to submit by 18th July the following:

a) A schedule setting out each charge repayment of which is sought, showing the date, amount, and reasons given (if any) for that charge being made;

b) Copies of any statement or other document relied upon as showing that each and every charge has been made;

c) A statement of evidence of all matters relied upon as tending to show that the charges are irrecoverable as penalties or otherwise;

d) Copies of decided cases and other legal materials to be relied upon.

 

The defendant shall by 8 August 2007 file and serve a response to the Claimant's schedule, stating in respect of each item claimed;

a) Pursuant to what contractual provision such charge was made, producing a copy of the contractual document relied upon;

b) Whether such charge is accepted to be a penalty, and if not why not;

c) If such charge is alleged to be a pre-estimate of the Defendant's loss incurred by the Claimant's actions (whether or not such action is treated as a breach of contract between the parties), all facts and matters intended to be relied upon as showing that such was a proper estimate of such loss, and all evidence to be adduced at trial as to what the true cost of dealing with the matter was;

d) If such charge is not alleged to be a pre-estimate of the Defendant's loss incurred by the Claimant's actions then facts and matters intended to be relied upon showing the basis upon which the charge was calculated and all evidence to be adduced at trial as to show that the charge was fair and reasonable;

e) Any witness statements;

f) Copies of decided cases and other legal materials to be relied upon.

 

Please, please could you help me with c) and d). I don't want to send too much or they won't bother to read it but I also don't want to leave important things out. I also don't have any Terms and Conditions - I tried to download the pdf format from the site but my computer wouldn't let me as it's blocked from work. Is there any chance at all that perhaps you could somehow send them to me.

I'm so sorry to ask all this but I'm scared that I'll be the one that does have to show up in court and I want to be sure I've got it right!!!

Thanks so much for all your help so far.
