    • 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.

I apologise in advance if any of this sounds unapologetic or lazy, I just want to give the basic details. Have been scouring through the Internet the last few days and this is what I thought might be best to do.

 

I have three defaulted accounts:

 

Cabot Financial (used to be a lloyds TSB credit card, think it was sold but not sure): 1164

Default on credit report: sept 2014 (I haven't paid anything since July 2011 although I have no proof for this. I know because I opened a HSBC account around this date and decided not to touch the account again)

 

They have been writing letters and making phone calls for the last couple of years and I have been ignoring..last week I had a home visit from fidelite credit management, told him the person he's asking for has moved out and he left me a letter to pass on about a first visit

 

lloyds TSB current account overdraft: 1199

Default on credit report: Nov 2015

(Accidentally had a bank transfer to the account August 2013 - not touched the account since - never updated address with them so not sure if they have been contacting)

 

NatWest current account overdraft: 1095

Default on credit report: Feb 2013

(The last time the balance changed was November 2012 - so this default date seems correct - again did not update address with them)

 

Wrote out a paragraph about my personal situation but realised may not be relevant?

 

Have been burying my head in the sand but after a home visit from the debt collector last week I cannot do it anymore. Please help. :|

Thanks for responding.

 

I took the card out whilst living with parents,

then moved out and had address changed.

 

 

Moved back to parents address a couple of years ago and did not update address

so not sure how they know.

 

 

They started sending letters pretty much straight away after I moved back.

ok well sadly you need to then

else they could quite rightly get a backdoor CCJ using the old address and you'd know nothing about it.

 

 

send them a CCA request

that will hit two birds..

 

 

one put them to strict proof they hold enforceable paperwork

two officially inform them of your correct address

 

 

read ALL of the CCA request link posts

and do NOT sign the letter

:sad: okay...does it make any difference that on the noodle credit report the address under the cabot account is my current address. the other defaulted accounts show my old address.

possibly but I wouldn't ever rely upon that

legally you've not informed them

and a doorstepper asking at that address receiving a moved out might also be used against you in that sense,

 

 

i'd do the CCa to be 100% sure they know

I have some more questions :!:

 

I was digging out some old letters to get a reference number for the CCA and came across letters from Wescot about the other Lloyds defaulted account (a current account overdraft) which are from last year September. Should I write to them also about an address change? I feel concerned that I will be opening a can of worms and not know how to deal with it.

Hi,

 

Sent a CCA to cabot end of April. They acknowledged it and said they would respond within 40 days. No response yet. Should I be doing anything else?

Cabot know that 12+ 2 days no CCA sent to you cas unenforceable until they do send a enforceable/unenforceable copy, 40 days they know it is for a SAR request deadline, they are the pits of an organisation who flaunt the law and as usual regulators are spineless over paid kindergarten material
