    • 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.

My charges come to approx £3500.

Have sent Small Claims summons to Local Court again Royal Bank of Scotland. Got letter yesterday from RBS offering me £1600 if I sign within 5 working days.

Any advice on what I should do would be greatly appreciated.:confused:

 

Hi have you followed the process set down by this site? You can accept the cash as a part settlement, inform them that you will continue to seek the balance.:D

Hi

 

After sending first two letters to RBS with no luck I completed small claim form and sent to local court. Local court have issued to papers on RBS.

RBS have now sent me letter offering a payment, although not the full amount claimed. Should I accept this as partial payment? How do I calculate my dates or should I go with the dates on the court letter?

Any help or advice would be greatly appreciated. :?:

Hi

 

When looking through other threads some of the forum members seem to have calculated dates when they should have received payment or notification of further action.

 

I think I'm just myself confused with all the information

ok there are some set "times" but these are for when you have sent letters 14 days for the prelim letter and 14 days for the LBA. then you can file with mcol. The information and proceedure is in the faqs if you have anymore probs pm me. :D

Hi

 

Had a look in FAQS but not able to find what I'm looking for.

 

Is there a template of the letter to send to Bank accepting part payment? Letter from RBS states that they are offering me the sum as a gesture of goodwill without admission of error liabibility. Is this just their standard response?

 

Have received letter from Sheriff Court stating that the return date for case is the 14th November and hearing date is 21st November.

I noticed in this template letter that it states they have a date to respond before court action. Should I put the date as 14th or 21st November?

 

Thanks for you help with this.

Starting to get a bit worked up and panicky about all this!

you can really adjust this letter as much as you want as long as you stick to the fact that you are rejecting their offer, will accept it as partial settlement but will pursue the remainder in court, thats all, dont get bogged down on dates if it's working you into a state,

 

Simply tell them you refer to their letter, offering x amount, and will accept as partial,, just like i said above

 

Hope that helps!!

Received letter from RBS on 20th October offering to meet claim in full which goes back approx 5/6 years which I'm more than happy with.

 

Got home from work today and received letter from RBS legal team quoting s6 and schedule 1 of the Prescription and Limitation (Scotland) Act 1973 stating that I am out of time to make any claim in respect of the charges applied to my account.

 

Can I claim back more than 5 years from RBS?

Also they want to know what further action I plan on taking

What do I do know?

 

Any help or advice would be appreciated

If the charges are within the last 6 years you are within your rights to claim them, some people are caliming more than 6 years though I don't think any of them have concluded yet. Did you already write and accept their offer of full settlement, if not I would do so now, including the reference of the letter they sent with the offer.

 

Perhas you have charges more than 6 years and they think you're after those as well?

I haven't written and accepted yet as only recently sent letter accepting the sum they offered me as partial settlement.

 

Both letters have come from different people and different locations.

 

My full list of charges are from 12/04/00 to 13/07/06. They have enclosed a copy of the charges that I included with my small claim summons totalling £730.00.

If it were me I'd write and accept the refund then once the cheque is safely banked, write and say the claim has been settled to your satisfaction! I think they're probably a bit busy to chase you up if you don't reply just now!!
