    • 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.

they have offered me 75% of my initial claim of £1100! and i haven't even filed this with small claims yet! i sent the first letter, received the standard response, replied giving them 14 more days (2 months ago)... and that's as far as i got due to not being able to afford to take it any further.

 

has anyone else been lucky with lloyds recently? i know they've been pretty stubborn.

Is it £750 you have got? If so, it is standard.

£800. but close enough!

 

i sent the letter before action 8th may and received a response to this on the 18th... standard no-offer letter.

 

due to funds (and the continuing bank charges!) i was yet to take this even further and hadn't even continued with the correspondence, so i'm very happy! i'd have thought they would have assumed that i'd given up!

Wow - maybe they are changing tactics now - first time I have known of that. Usually £750 is standard. Wonder if they will start offering 75% of monies back like some other banks do.

 

Congratulations - are you pressing for the rest or not going to bother in the light of what is going on?

i'm taking the money and running! the timing is perfect to be honest - we're being kicked out of our house in 6 weeks as the landlord wants to sell it! considering the circumstances i'm in at the moment, as well as the potentially impending change in legislation, i think i'd be stupid not to take this.

Well I am glad you are happy - and, it's £800 you would never have thought you'd have got back a year ago :) Enjoy it.
