    • 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 once shared a ward with an old chap with chronic emphysemia.

His coughing and spluttering had to be heard to be believed!:eek:

My dad has it through smoking.... its managed well at the moment but when he's ill we know about it!

He gave up 10 years ago but the damage has been done... and he worked as a doorman in a social club before he retired (long before the smoking ban) which Im sure didnt help either!

Hun if you do smoke, give it up!

Get some champix from the doc, its so easy to do that way ;)

 

Doctors are OK if you want medicine etc but sometimes its better to meet and talk to others with the same condition.

I don't smoke anymore. I gave up smoking in 2006 before i found out about the Emphysema.

Do you feel better?

Have the docs said you've improved your chances?

 

I feel a lot better since giving up smoking and don't miss it at all despite being a heavy smoker for around 20 odd years but my lungs are terrible now and they will never improve as far as i know.

I'm the same, never going back to smoking.

I had tried to give it up for ages and always failed. I had tried patches, gum and even hypnosis and none of them worked but one day I just decided to stop and i have never looked back.

I think the smoking ban in Scotland helped as I smoked like a chimney when I was driving but all of a sudden it was illegal to smoke in the works van so I cut own a lot due to that.

I think the smoking ban has helped a lot of people decide to give up and helped with their quits

I'd tried all ways to give up and this way was the only way that's really worked for me

Good for you though, going cold turkey ;)
