    • 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.

Good Afternoon,

 

Apologies if this is in the wrong forum.

 

I'm about to send off a SAR with regards to a problem with AMEX and Allied International and a breach of DPA, amongst other issues.

 

Allied International are purporting to be representing AMEX as an agent and as such are effectively working on behalf of AMEX.

 

With this in mind, will a SAR sent to AMEX be enough to gain access to Allied International actions taken on behalf of AMEX?

 

Thanks in advance.

No - they wil probably use it to pass the buck to each other. Send an SAR to both

An interesting read Mr Pimpernel.

 

I'm expecting this to be a bit of a fight but after having chatted with Ben Brown at AIC - they tell me I have to submit a SAR to get the statements... Funny I thought they had to provide them on request ;)

Hello Scarlet

 

I noticed that you mentioned on a much earlier thread about Allied and Amex and how it unfolded I couldn't open the file

 

Amex this week have just passed my wife's account to Allied

 

the account is a gold card we ran into a little trouble and we haven't been able to pay in full I had hopped to be able to deal directly with Amex on the smatter as it is only a few months overdue

 

Allied haven't written to us yet they have just started with phone calls and a email

 

I just wanted to get plan of action started pre harassment from allied

allied can be ignored

they are a DCA and don't buy debts

and are totally powerless

 

 

a DCA is NOT A BAILIFF

please don't hit Quote...just type we know what we said earlier..

DCA's view debtors as suckers, marks and mugs

NO DCA has ANY legal powers whatsoever on ANY debt no matter what it's Type

and they

are NOT and can NEVER  be BAILIFFS. even if a debt has been to court..

If everyone stopped blindly paying DCA's Tomorrow, their industry would collapse overnight...
