    • 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 Guys,

 

I am hoping for some help with an issue we are having with CABOT.

 

My husband recieved a letter about 2 years ago from Cabot stating he owed an outstanding debt to them for a monument card which was taken out in 2002 in his name. (We never got together until 2006 and he lived on his own at the time). After following some advise on this forum we have attempted to tackle this issue with cabot and have disputed this debt and not acknowledged it with them. We also recieved several other debt letters from capital one and O2 and it appears that he has had his ID stolen. We reported this to the police and obtained a crime reference number which we have issued to all companies and cabot are refusing to acknowledge the fact that he is not liable for this debt.

We sent off a CCA request and recieved a reply card (does not look like a credit agreement to me) back from them by way of a credit agreement and the signature is not the same as the one my husband uses on all of his legal documents, additionally it states he was a student. My husband was in and out of hospital that year with ill health that we can prove.

 

We have been going backwards and forwards with letters and even complained to the ombudsman who has referred the case back to cabot to resolve. The final response from cabot is attached for you to have a look at, as is the reply card they have sent by way of a CCA request. Additionally, they say the account was active until 2006, is this not statute barred now anyway?

 

Confused and annoyed with these very arrogant people and I would welcome any advise you can offer to assist us in sorting this out.

 

Thanks Peeps :-(

Hi Loopylass and welcome to CAG

 

Sorry this went unanswered so long.

 

The doc'ts you've attached above are too small to read. See this guide and repost the doc'ts so we can see what they say :-

scan the required letters/agreements/sheets

as a picture[jpg] file

don't forget you can use a mobile phone

or a digital camera too!!

or convert them to .PDF

ENSURE: remove all pers info inc barcodes etc using paint program

but leave all figures and dates.

 

goto one of the many free online pdf converter websites

it would be better to upload a multipage pdf

than many single ones

or if you have PDF as an installed printer drive use that

or use word and save as pdf

open a new msg box here

hit go advanced below the msg box

hit manage attachments below that box

hit the add files button on the top right

hit select files, navigate to your file on your pc

hit upload files

NB:you can set where it goes in the post by hitting insert inline.

then hit reply button

dx

We could do with some help from you
