    • 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 bought this TV in March 07 not had a problem with until recently. On January 18th 2009 i upgraded my satellite system to Sky+ HD so within 5 weeks i have got through 3 brand new sky boxes and 3 new hdmi cables and now i have found out today that there is a possibilty that the HDMI sockets at the back of the T.V. are faulty according to the sky engineer its already blown socket and i am afraid it will blow the other.

I have contacted philips but they dont want to know, can anyone give me any advice on this matter wher i stand

im pretty sure if the fault is caused by third party hardware it wont be covered under the manufacturers warranty.

Many thanks for that, I must say it puts me in a pretty poor position Sky wont let me cancel the HD contract although its oly been running over just over a month and the hardware is overheating the Hdmi sockets and the sky engineer says eventually is will cause screen burn. :confused:

sorry for my ignorance,

Hi Shimsham

 

Your probably find its both your TV and Sky.

For example i had a TV which was conected to Sky about 4 Years ago.

Decided to leave Sky and go onto Telewest at the time, they installed there box, and the picture quality was very poor. Told them to take there box back and went back to Sky.

Recently i've purchased a new TV 1080P and tried Virgin out again as there Cable network is geared up for the 1080 resulution and the picture quality is fine.

So i would give Sky another ring and ask them what resulution are they running on there system.
