    • 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.

That is a fantastic idea - let's have an online party (with facebook as the VIP area ;)) and donate what we would have spent going out.

 

Make it fun - get dressed up, hair and make-up nice for the ladies while they sip their white wine or fruit cup - have an actual day, like children in need, when people can make their donations/pledges online and invite all members.

 

Perhaps a quiz or similar party games too?

How about small meets all over the country at the same time, and getting the press involved?

 

I know we have a member of the site team in our area, so could it be something we could work with the site team members to organise?

 

We could get collection buckets out, I don't think it is too hard to get a collection licence.

How about the future meets are cancelled and insted of having the meets we all donate our costs of getting there to CAG.

 

I know if i was to da that it would be about £80 to cag which i would have spent on the MANC meet travel and accomidation. let alone the drinks costs as that would be more at a later date.

Sorry GM, can't agree with you. We all need some time out. If we did it your way, it would be the same old same old.

 

I prefer the idea of going to a LOCAL meet and raising money from other sources.

Can we not just do what we can for now, and wait and see what happens.

 

As for a date.

 

As it a virtual meet, and everybody is likely to be home, I think we should go for the first Monday or Tuesday after the next payday.

I Wish you everything you wish yourself.

I've already got my train ticket, so unless I can flog them on e-bay, that's not going to help!

 

And I drink very little, so that wouldn't help either. :-D
