    • 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.

Dougal,

No news yet?; any idea if and when?

 

 

Morning all,

Thanks for asking.

 

Slow progress...but progress none the less. More when I am able to say something - restricted at present for obvious reasons!!

 

I will say this it is going to affect almost everyone in the UK.

 

Best wishes to all,

 

Dougal

 

PS: It ain't over 'till the fat fella sings....I'm still putting on weight and dusting off the piano!!

 

 

Update: 2013 Following our recent (9/7/13) hearing about Bank Charges at the Court of Appeal, and refusal to grant permission to Appeal; an Application has just (23/10/2013) been made for a fresh hearing and the Court Location is yet to be confirmed!

Whilst there may be a confidentiality clause - it at least means that Mike Daily may now know what is needed for the Banks to 'cave in' ??

 

Any ideas on that anyone??

 

Presumably the arguments he is using in these cases he is running are based on what he developed after the Supreme Court decision and which was published on MSE. Obviously they may now be further refined, and that would be the interesting thing to discover.

 

As Caro has said, and contrary to Ford, I hope more and more cases come to light that have been settled out of court. This would then return us to the position we were in prior to July 2007 and the OFT sticking their oar in, that is with the banks settling as a goodwill gesture before reaching court, possibly even before a claim is issued.

Positive, I would think. Guys, it's best not to push the matter. Best to wait.

Thing is m2e, GLC is a charity, so I don't suppose anyone will become a millionaire, and the very fact that we are back to the same old story of banks caving gives rise to the same old situation - they don't want to go to court.

 

Give it time, and when it's been more thoroughly tested I'm sure that we'll be hearing a lot more about how it's being done.

 

Obviously it would be best tested in court, but one step at a time.
