    • 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.

For those of you who missed me getting spectacularly drunk the last time (yes.......... hubby did have to carry me out of the taxi and up the stairs!!!) and for those who want to repeat the process............... (you brave souls)!!!!

 

How do you fancy having a meet-up around Christmas time? Bit of mulled wine and a Bratwurst on the German markets............ possibly a soiree into a decent pub afterwards.......... and I promise to stay on my feet (for a couple of hours!!!!) :D

Kev, you're an absolute gent! I was thinking early December when the Christmas markets set up. It's a lovely atmosphere around St. Anne's Square and Shambles - lovely aroma of mulled wine, mulled cider, bratwurst, etc. What d'ya think?

 

Can we go to a bar this time that does draught - my head was still hurting 2 days later

 

Yes please! We could meet at the markets for a mulled wine............ then stroll along to a nice bar for a good chat! xx :D

Sanding? On a Saturday night? Nooooooooooooooo........... it's an X-factor night!!!!!!

 

Tell your missus, she should only weigh herself first thing in the morning after going to the loo .......... the weight drops off then!!!!! (works for me anyway!!!) :D

 

Well hopefully, if the weight's all gone, we'll get the chance to meet up for a good natter again. But please tell the missus........... it works when you put the scale dial back a few notches as well (I swear by it!!!) ;)

ROFL:D :D

 

I remember bumping in to a friends wife and congratulating her on the latest bump (she already had 4 kids) only to be told she was not preggers!:eek:

 

I spent the next 10 minutes trying to convince her that it had nothing to do with how she looked but that I had been told by a mutual friend that she was expecting again! Not heard from her or my mate ever since!!

 

In my defence though, she had put on tons of weight!!!:o

We will need to get dates and such sorted soon, as im sure a lot of people will need to book days off work.

 

Does any one has any ideas of where the meet can be held?

Ee-up peeps! Sorry for not posting - been otherwise engaged! ;)

 

How about either Friday 7th or Saturday 8th December? The markets will be in place by then and the Christmas parties won't be in full swing! Trust me.......... we don't wanna be in Manc land when it's full on party season! Apart from anthing else, I can't handle bumping into my own daughter on her work's Crimbo do!:rolleyes:

 

Any preferences??? x
