    • 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.

Hoping for some advice.

 

Trying to get a default cleared off my account with QQ, now sitting with PRA Group.

It was rolled over twice before they passed it to PRA. paid it off in full 2 years ago.

Default was set as 12/2012.

 

I have explained my situation at the time but so far they keep coming back with it was an affordable loan

and they refuse to remove the default notice.

 

My question is related to the default notice.

 

I received a copy of the default notice from them last week

and the address does not include my house number, only the street.

 

When i queried this with them they stated they had sent the default notice to my house number

as they hold it on file however I do not believe this was the case.

 

I never received the default notice and every system I have ever used

always places the address automatically from the system to both envelope and letter

so why should this be any different.

 

I have argued that this is why I never received the default notice

which i believe means they have not met the requirements to place the debt in default.

 

Im not after any compensation or interest back,

i took the loan, couldn't afford it and failed to pay it back, but I do want the default removed.

 

Do I have a case or not if the default notice has the incorrect address by not showing my house number?

 

I am desperate to move on with my life and buy a home for my wife and daughter

but this is still sitting over me and will for a further 3 years.

 

Thanks

 

Graeme

a creditor does not have to issue a dn to default your credit file

 

sadly it matters not the you either did not received it or a house number is missing.

 

all they have to show is that a dn was sent in the account log

 

your only way of getting it removed would be to go down the irresponsible lending complaint route

 

there are numerous threads here detailing how to follow this IR route

please don't hit Quote...just type we know what we said earlier..

DCA's view debtors as suckers, marks and mugs

NO DCA has ANY legal powers whatsoever on ANY debt no matter what it's Type

and they

are NOT and can NEVER  be BAILIFFS. even if a debt has been to court..

If everyone stopped blindly paying DCA's Tomorrow, their industry would collapse overnight...
