    • 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.

Hi, new to forum, reason for finding this forum and posting:

 

I've had 2 business accounts with them since 2003. On one (which was pretty much unused) I had a RBS Business M/card, every month, without fail, the old manager would take funds from the live account, for the exact amount needed to pay the Credit card, placing them into the dormant account, which then paid the bill..... I was so used to this, I didnt give it a thought every month.

 

March 2008, New, younger manager takes over, first month, he called me, when the CC bill came in, I explained what the old manager did every month for past 5 years, he agreed and dealt with it.

 

Over next 2 months we had one meeting and he offered me additional funding, two business loans, of £15k each and upped my O/Draft to £20K, as a business I couldnt believe how helpful he was, until......

 

June 2008, I tried to get hold of him to talk about additional funding to enhanced my business, I receive an email back from their servers saying "account unknown", I call the branch, he no longer works there, in fact he got up from his desk on a Friday and didnt come back in....... I explained i had been talking to him about enhancing business, had sent loads of information, plans, cashflows etc - they said someone would be in touch....

 

July 2008 - Nothing heard for weeks, then I call branch, I'm told someone else is dealing with the account, I speak to a female, who asks about things and says she is happy to give additional £10k onto O/D...... 10 mins later she calls back and says she cannot do it, system did let her go so far, but would not complete, so.......

 

I re-send all info and she would get back to me.......

 

Sept 2008 - I get a call from a completely different person, demanding funds to pay off my Business credit card bill, i explain the way things had worked for years previously, he doesnt care and states it was "my problem"..... I pay the bill and complain, I dont get a reply!

 

Nov 2008 - I get informed, by letter, that the bank were not happy with their "over exposed, non security" position and want me to reduce all borrowings........ I explain I cannot, I'm a business that needed extra funding not reduction then they took the Ccard facility OFF ME!!

 

Since June 2008 till Nov 2008 I hadnt had a Business Relationship Manager, everytime I called the branch and asked, they couldnt tell me who it as!!!!!

 

Jan 2009 - my accounts have now been transferred to their head office, in fact the "Special relationship" section... meaning their "hard arse section" in my opinion, all I have received since then is an offer to combine the 2 business loans plus the overdraft into 2 NEW LOANS which will cost me EVEN MORE MONEY PER MONTH to pay them off!!

 

May 2009 - I speak to a local business manager, from where the business is NOW based and he WANTS MY ACCOUNT and WANTS to support the business on HIS PORTFOLIO but head office wont do it...........

 

I want to sue them for mis-representation, I havent had a business relationship manager for over a year, I believe my business has suffered because of this, the accounts would have been better managed with a manager, I've had NO SUPPORT from them at all.

 

July 2009 - Now the "Special" guy is demanding a repayment plan from me, I've already sent him one, which he refused to accept......

 

WHO do I complain to??? each time I try and call, I get passed to my old branch who say I must speak to the "Special" guy, who in turn isnt interested......

 

HELP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

Andy
