    • In terms of "why didn't I make a claim" - well, that has to be understood in the context of the long-standing legal battle and all its permuations with the shark. In essence there was a repo and probable fire sale of the leasehold property - which would have led to me initiating the complaint/ claim v SPF in summer 19. But there was no quick sale. And battle commenced and it ain't done yet 5y later. A potential sale morphed into trying to do a debt deal and then into a full blown battle heading to trial - based on the shark deliberately racking up costs just so the ceo can keep the property for himself.  Along the way they have launched claims in 4 different counties -v- me - trying to get a backdoor B. (Haven't yet succeeded) Simultaneously I got dragged into a contentious forfeiture claim and then into a lease extension debacle - both of which lasted 3y. (I have an association with the freeholders and handled all that legal stuff too) I had some (friend paid for) legal support to begin with.  But mostly I have handled every thing alone.  The sheer weight of all the different cases has been pretty overwhelming. And tedious.  I'm battling an aggressive financial shark that has investors giving them 00s of millions. They've employed teams of expensive lawyers and barristers. And also got juniors doing the boring menial tasks. And, of course, in text book style they've delayed issues on purpose and then sent 000's of docs to read at the 11th hour. Which I not only boringly did read,  but also simultaneously filed for ease of reference later - which has come in very handy in speeding up collating legal bundles and being able to find evidence quickly.  It's also how I found out the damning stuff I could use -v- them.  Bottom line - I haven't really had a moment to breath for 5y. I've had to write a statement recently. And asked a clinic for advice. One of the volunteers asked how I got into this situation.  Which prompted me to say it all started when I got bad advice from a broker. Which kick-started me in to thinking I really should look into making some kind of formal complaint -v- the broker.  Which is where I am now.  Extenuating circumstances as to why I'm complaining so late.  But hopefully still in time ??

    • 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.

on the 29th July this year me and my wife were due to fly back from Forli Airport in Italy with Ryanair to Stanstead.

The flight was due to leave at 10:30pm but at 1 minute to 10:00pm the flight was cancelled!

There were no representatives from Ryanair at the airport, just Italian Airport staff (Airport closes after the last flight at 10:30 and re-opens in the morning) and all they were interested in doing was get us to collect our luggage and get out of the airport, with no offer of help or information.

I was told that the two Ryanair flights the following day were full and to try and get a flight from another airport!

I managed to get our hire car back so that we could actually drive somewhere to stay for the night.

The following morning I managed to get flights re-booked with Ryanair through Pisa airport for that night (24 hours delay) and got back to the UK a day late.

I wrote to Ryanair to claim expenses (compensation under EU Regulations) but have received "Outside our control" letter back from them.

I have written back bringing in the issue of Failed Duty of Care etc, etc, but still no luck!

I want to take the next step of going to court (Moneyclaim Online) and could really do with some help in the wording of the claim from anyone who maybe knows how to proceed, or who has gone through the process themselves.

Pleeeeeeese Help :)

You might struggle with issuing proceedings against Ryanair through moneyclaim as you will need an address to serve proceedings against them within England and Wales.

 

You should write to the Commission for Aviation Regulation, 3rd Floor, Alexandra House, Earlsfort Terrace, Dublin who are responsible for the enforcement of EU directive 261/2004 in Ireland but I doubt this will yield anything.

 

Good Luck

But Ryanair have the Head of Customer Services at Satallite 3 at Stanstead Airport, so I should surely be able to serve the notice there?

You could give it a go but be sure that it is actually an address for Ryanair and not one of its many handling agents.

 

You can still start action against them using old fashioned paper in your local court.

Even if they can show something was outside their control...dont just take their word for it.

 

In a case (last year?) Easyjet said aicraft x was cancelled because of technical difficulties outside its control. Only problem was that aircraft x wasnt the aircraft the passenger was flying on! :D

 

Sometimes the only way to get to the bottom of something is to have it tested through the courts.

Don't know if you are still pursuing this, as your post is a bit older now, but I have just successfully sued Easy Jet for compensation as they cancelled our flight in July and didn't tell us until we got to the Airport (they forgot to tell some of the passengers so we showed up at the airport)

Pretty much the same story, didn't want to know and didn't care. Cancellation was due to operational reasons , we could only fly three days later as all other flights were fully booked. This cut our summer holiday short by three days

You need to be aware that "out of our control" as Ryan Air said, may not be good enough as per the EU regulation. The reasons must be "extraordinary" (war, extreme weather, civil unrest) so a court case might test this and they have to prove this beyond any doubt

In our case we asked compensation for four passengers plus all costs and expenses incurred, bill came to just under £1000.-

We filed at our local court, Easy Jet decided not to defend and hence got judgement by default. They have been ordered to pay us the full amount plus interest

Somtimes it is just worth to go for it and not let them mess you around like this
