    • 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,

 

I have had success claiming back 190 in bank charges from my normal bank account after second letter was sent. But am now trying to get back Credit Card charges without much success at the monet.

 

Has anyone been refunded credit card charges? After sending second letter I have recieved a reply from RBoS stating that the charges refunds DO NOT apply to credit cards.

Should I go ahead and start court action??

 

Advice would be much appreciated. Thank you.

do not listen to them lisa they are just trying to put you off go ahead with your timetable it does apply to cc. you are right and they are wrong that is all you need to keep in mind. if they didnt put up a fight everyone would claim and noone would be put off... many are... and the bank would be well out of pocket. thats why they make things difficult not because they are in the right. good luck

Hi guys,

 

I am currently starting to claim my charges back from my B of S credit card.

However, MBNA have now taken over their credit cards.

 

I rec'd reply from MBNA with ALL charges for this year since they took over!

So, does anyone know if i have to now write to B of S?

Or, should MBNA have all my details, statements on their data base now?

 

If i have to now write to B of S, does anyone have an address and contact?

 

Any help or assistance would be appreciated.

 

Thanks

martin

sorry cant help mc.

 

I am looking for some answers about credit cards also if anyone knows anything

 

I`d be glad to here from them.

 

1. Can I send for 5 year back statements as with the banks?and is it £10?

 

2.monument and barclays are one in the same people do I have to file 2 seperate

claims as it is 2 different acc numbers?

 

Not many people seem to have many clear answers that I can find anyway.

posted on the subject a few times but people just seem to shy away from the subject.Any help welcomed.TIA MIKEB

Mcow - MBNA should have all your details if they've completely taken over. If I were you I'd write asking for the rest of your statements stating your original 40 day deadline, if they don't hold them I'm sure they'll point you in the direction of BOS. Either way they should tell you who has them, and one or the other has to have them by law!

 

Mike,

1. Yes, 5 years for Scotland, 6 for England/Wales. Yes its still £10. You can send an SAR to any company that holds financial data about you. £10 is the maximum they can charge for your information, not all companies charge though. And remember its £10 for all accounts with one company, not £10 per account.

 

2. Not definitely sure about this but I think you will probably have to do them separately as on the court form you have to put the Defendant's name as the one that appears on your statement. However, the court may decide to join them together anyway. It might be better to keep them separate just to make sure its all clear and easy to keep track of.

Thank you lucy

 

I do have last six years bank statements that I recieved from my

bank whom I successfuly sued,but am I right in thinkinking I won`t

 

be able to work out from them what the credit card companies have

took and for what?

 

I assume that the SAR to the CC companies will detail exactly what

they have taken for late payments etc?.

 

Thanks again lucy,and thank you also lero for your post.I am really

more interested than clearing up my wifes credit file than anything

else,but a cpl of K into the bargin would`nt go amiss.

Yep, you're best off getting the statements direct from the credit card company(ies). It will still be useful to have your bank statements to back up your findings though - then you know you have more evidence to back up your claim.

 

If you're interested in sorting out your wife's credit file, have you checked out the 'Legalities' forum which has a lot of interesting stuff about defaults and the like? Also, the 'Debt and Bailiffs' forum.

You're welcome. Although, the only way I know what I know is from having read and read non-stop. There is a lot of info in the FAQs and it's important that everyone reads them before jumping in head first! I think its just that the mods get asked the same questions a lot by new members who haven't done their research. I know I was like when I first started - you can tell from my thread ( http://www.consumeractiongroup.co.uk/forum/showthread.php?p=238041#post238041) how my confidence grew from the initial stages. :)

mikeb1 do you have a thread of your own hun as this is sort of hijacking lisaab70s thread if so you can put a link on here so we can answer questions on your thread rather than hers. bear with the mods they may seem angry however as lucy said they do get asked the same question loads of times a day as its a busy site that why we all help each other out. as you get further down the line you will be able to answer questions of people just starting out and this helps take the pressure off the mods. good luck hun
