    • Paragraph 18 – you are still talking about Boston stolen items. About time this was fixed??? Paragraph 19  In any event, the claimant's PS5 gaming device was correctly declared and correctly valued. The defendant accepted it for carriage and was even prepared to earn extra money by selling sell insurance in case of its loss or damage. New paragraph 20 – this the defendant routinely sells insurance in respect of "no compensation" items (a secondary contract contrary to section 72 CRA 2015) new paragraph above paragraph 20 – the defendant purports to limit its liability in respect of lost or damaged items. This is contrary to section 57 of the consumer rights act 2015. The defendant offers to extend their liability if their customer purchases an insurance cover for an extra sum of money. This insurance is a secondary contract calculated to exclude or limit their liability for the defendants contractual breaches and is contrary to section 72 of the consumer rights act 2015. New paragraph below paragraph 42 – the defendant merely relies on "standard industry practice" You haven't pointed to the place in your bundle of the Telegraph newspaper extract. You have to jiggle the paragraphs around. Even though I have suggested new paragraph numbers, the order I have suggested is on your existing version 5.

    • 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 an ill thought out and badly worded peition.

 

Do we ban all tractors, even those in the most rural areas, and those that only need to travel a few hundred yards from one field to another.

 

Seems that whoever's dumb idea this was should have put a little more time and effort into the wording of this, as this petition in it's current looks like the work of a primary school student.

All these points have been raised on another forum I am a member on

 

The facts are-

 

1.they don't pay road tax

 

2.they run on rebated diesel

 

3.because of the above,they are limited in the distance they are allowed to travel from their farm

 

4.they disregard point 3

 

5.they insist on driving into towns at the busiest times of the day with enormous queues behind them-and almost invariably refuse to pull over to let people past when the opportunity arises

 

6.I don't see many fields or cows in the centre of towns

 

 

the fact is they are just too lazy to change their wellies to let them get into their cars when they want to go somewhere-so they cause traffic jams by using their John Deere-and they are probably running their cars on rebated diesel as well.....

That would make a little more sense than the sad excuse of a petition currently being offered, although I think it would be hard work condensing all relevant facts into one petition

 

I did not say I disagree with the issue, but how do you expect it to be take seriously with the current text.

 

Your post, however, is a bit like tarring them all with the same brush, and I am sure you will agree not all Tractor drivers act the way you describe, that is just silly.

Good idea for tactors, it stops all the boy racers getting flashed and then complaining they got 6 points for doing 90mph on a speed limit of 70 mph.

Foot

Right

Off

Gas.

 

Save yourself some brass and no points on your licence.

How about banning City dwellers from country roads during

 

Lambing Season

Planting Season

Harvest time

 

and then the city dwellers with rural retreats as second homes would never be able to pollute the country side:rolleyes: at weekends, and then maybe farmers and their families could afford a house near where they work

 

If you want to ban something get rid of Caravans

its bizzar the things people will think of when bored

this falls into the catagory of ban cockrels from crowing.

yes i hate being behind them and caravans too but its life,get used to it,take a chill pill or just move to the city

I`ve never seen a tractor in the middle of liverpool or any other major city

but i do drive a milk float and i`ve had people shouting at me for not going fast enough tho i`m flat out at the time

Another one is shouting get your brake lights fixed.DUH it doesn`t go fast enough to need to use the brakes

Life`s too fast sloooooooooooooooooow down,leave earlier whatever it takes

What is it that makes some people blame other road users for delays, when the main cause of delays is.....cars. Not horses, bikes, tractors, buses but miles of stationary cars in line. Not a lot of point trying to drive at high speed when at the next village, the serious hold-ups begin and the average speed is horse and cart era!:D

The law states that agricultural vehicles using Red Diesel may legally be used on the public road when travelling from one part of the owner's land to another part of the same owners land. The maximum milage allowed being 8 miles per week.

 

What is needed, is for this legislation to be enforced.

 

The OP and I live in N.Ireland, where agribusiness and those involved in it have an apparently untouchable god-like status.

 

Ive seen tractors being used as a shopping vehicle, with a grumpy looking sod sat in the driving seat, with a roll up fag hanging out of the corner of his mouth and the missus on the outside of the cab, clutching Sainsburys bags leaving the aforementioned supermarket!

think the police have more important things to do than arrest some farmer cos he`s doing too many miles using pink diesel

the amount of people who bothered to sign this petition would seem to indicate how important it is in the great sceme of things if its not tractors it would be caravans or milk floats or other people driving their cars too slowly.

some people will always want to go faster than the person in front

people should plan their journey time better to account for such things

every morning i see them on their way to work some actually try to get as close to me as they possibly can cos i have the gall to be driving a milkfloat down the road and slowing them down on their rush to work,one day i had two bottles of milk knocked out of my hands by someone`s door mirror so you can imagine how close they got and in my two years of doing the job i have had to pick up more squashed family pets than i can count.

people need to slow down cos there will always be something that gets in their way and one day it will,and no doubt has been on occasion a person who`s life they will take all in the name of getting there quicker

SC- you live in Liverpool and clearly have no idea of the road system in N.Ireland and the insane delays caused by selfish bumpkins bouncing along on 70 year old Fordsons and wee grey Fergies! :eek:

 

 

(And they only only use them because they dont know how to operate the traction engine, which is quietly rusting away in the barn!)
