    • 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.

Can someone help with this

 

Today cash genie took out £170 from my partners bank account for an unpaid loan last year.

 

 

The money was actually mine and was two weeks benefit money that I had asked the dwp put into her account as I do not have one

and they will no longer pay by Giro Cheque.

 

Natwest bank won't act and the loan company will not reply to my E-mails.

 

Where legally do I stand ?.

 

Thank you

Tell your bank to do an immediate chargback for an unauthorised transaction. Ignore the front line phone reps. Speak to a senior manager.

Any advice i give is my own and is based solely on personal experience. If in any doubt about a situation , please contact a certified legal representative or debt counsellor..

 

 

If my advice helps you, click the star icon at the bottom of my post and feel free to say thanks

It was not my Bank and even the fraud Department at NatWest were unwilling to help sort it out.

 

 

I am not up to speed on these matters but I deem this transaction as unlawful

 

I did send CG this E-mail but never received a reply.

The transaction was unlawful and unauthorised. Thats why CG took the amount in multiple amounts.

 

You wont get a reply from CG as they took it unlawfully. As i said, your bank is wrong and you need to be firm with them. You wont get £100 per hour either from them as costs/compensation. The most you will get is the current LiP rate, and maybe a few admin costs.

 

Also, how did they get your partners account details for YOUR loan?

Hi

It was not my loan it was not in my name .

 

 

It was a loan my partner took out in 2012.

 

 

I was Unaware of Said loan...

 

 

. It also transpires they (C.G) have been trying to do just this for some time and prompted temporary freezes on my Partners account.

 

Nat West failed to contact my partner to let her know that this was going on ..

... Naughty or Complacent I don't care

 

 

I personally have called NatWest half an hour ago to get the transaction frozen until the morning but Khofi In India is unable to do that.

 

So how much can I charge them bearing in mind I am suffering sever Depression and under the GP for this...:sad:

You can only charge them any loss you have incurred as a result of their actions.

 

 

You cannot make up any figure and then add interest to it.

 

I suspect that they took the money in 3 tranches because they wanted to make sure that the amount they claimed would be paid.

 

 

I note that GM have tried to take money before so I daresay that GM would have asked for a fourth time for their money

 

 

.If they didn't it would leave one to suspect that GM knew how much money was in the account................................

 

In addition, it might be difficult to arrange a cancellation of those transactions because the money was owed by your GF and it was in her account.

I am phoning the DWP tomorrow UK Law states that's the minimum I can be paid to live off also I believe money within a Bank legally belongs to the Bank its in until withdrawn Is this correct?. C.G Have apparently been trying for many months to take money but my partner had stopped the card, She applied for another loan with her new details , Hence CG obtaining them leading to the events that I have outlined

I will update further after I make a few telephone calls tomorrow I am lets say a wee bit naffed off ATM....:-x

 

Thanks for all the advice given thus far I appreciate the help.

sorry that all wrong

 

 

you MUST phone the bank and get a chargeback done on the first transaction

 

 

then ask for the CPA to be cancelle on the others.

 

 

this is the LAW NatWest CANNOT refuse it.

 

 

it was NOT your loan matters not where the money went

they have NO RIGHT TO THIS + 12mts later.

 

 

get action fraud involved too.

 

 

PHONE NATWEST NOW AND DEMAND A CHARGEBACK AND CPA..

The other company are Bonga Loans.... but on investigation Cash Genie have 9 other companies . I may be able to get the monies back according to the FSA it will take 8 weeks or more. NatWest will not discuss it with me I told them I am logging complaints against both them and CG.

If Bonga Loans don't mention on their website that they are part of Cash Genie - report them to the OFT. You should easily be able to see that they are affiliated. These sub companies are usually set up by the main lender in order to trap people who owe them money into applying for a loan with the smaller company so they can then get new bank or card details to recoup the old loan. It's despicable, but then that's the filthy industry of payday loans :(

you really need to nail NatWest on this issue.

 

 

ask them the direct question..

 

 

were these payments taken under a cpa?

 

 

if they were , THEY MUST refund you

  • 2 weeks later...

Actually it was fairly easy apart from having to study their own T&C's and threaten to take it further. Once I found out the I had a case from you guys and elsewhere and what course of action to take. It took less than five minutes on the phone.Oh I got interest and expenses back too lol. :-D

Ok

 

Firstly I researched NatWests T&C's that state A CPA can be stopped.

 

Which they failed to inform my partner.

 

I then told them to issue a chargeback as the transaction was unlawful for several reasons as outlined above.

 

I mentioned my displeasure that even though CG had attempted this many times activating Natwests own anti fraud software

nobody had the decency to inform my partner what was going on.

 

And I also let them know I would have gone to the ombudsman and beyond over the issue.
