    • 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.

Brilliant interviews hopefully this should encourage many many other people to look into their own accounts and start action

 

I hope so, the more people that claim the more chance there is of banks changing their regime of unlawfull charges

I am pleased it gave you a boost! Remember, it is uncommon...well i should rephrase that....it's not the norm for the Abbey to drag it out as long as they have with my claim, you should recieve your money in a much more timely fashion, making it more "pallatable".

 

Good luck with your claim :)

Hi Reka

 

Still no sign of the money from Abbey, have you checked your account with them in case they put it in there instead of sending you a cheque. Really just a thought.

 

Last night I tried to withdraw cash from Abbey - they had ran out of money, so my thoughts were they must be conserving all the money to pay out all of the claims.

 

Postal strike to day, so perhaps the post will bring sime joy tomoz.

Erm, i am not worthy of hero status, but i am pleased you found the thread interesting. I could not have done it without the help of CAGers, especially, Gary H, Jules, Icy, Kia, Hedgey, Stephen, DS to name but a few :)

I am intending on sticking around on the boards for some time yet :)

Well, bang went my early night! Had to keep on reading to get to the end of the saga... I've just received my first bunch of statements from the dreaded Abbey, just another few years' worth to go and then I too will no doubt be begging assistance from "you in the know".

 

Well done and thank you for being an inspiration to those of us just starting. It has made me really determined.

***AMTEEGEE VS ABBEY SETTLED (well nearly)

:D ***

 

Reka, Abbey faxed the court this morning to say that they are going to settle - minus £51.90 - dunno what that's for.

 

I will pursue the balance AND the court case prep costs which is getting on for £350 now.

 

I have been so giddy since calling the court, I don't think I've ever been so happy. Apart from when my son was born of course!!

 

Any advice on getting the balance plus the prep costs???

 

Joy will be shortlived as entire win will be winging its way to my credit card bill!!

 

Must get the old joint account action started...
