    • There's a thread somewhere about someone sending the baillifs against Wizzair that is quite hilarious. I would love to see someone do the same to Ryanair. Question is, should you be the one to take that role. You are entitled to the £220, if your flight was from the UK. If it was TO the UK I suppose it is more of a grey area... though the airlines I know have been using £220 as standard. Not that surprising for Ryanair, the worst cheapskates in the universe, to go for the lower amount, and if you forward this to the CEO he will probably have a jolly good laugh and give his accountants a verbal bonus. After all he's the one who said and I paraphrase "F*** our customers, they'll fly with us again anyway". While we would all love to see Ryanair get wooped in court again, I have to join my fellow posters in thinking it's not worth the hassle for (hypothetically) £7 and not sure it will expedite the payment either. It's already an achievement that you got them to accept to pay.

    • 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.

Total = 14907.29]

I have just sat down and worked this all out I am :jaw: and really angry with my self for being so stupid.:mad2:

 

this is a base figure but I seriously need some advice on how to claim back from Wonga and irresponsible lending to me.

 

my loans rolled over for multiple months and I did email them at one stating I was having financial difficulties I have email references etc - I borrowed the funds from my family to clear down.

Things just spiralled out of control. I have a young family and these things just kept on piling and piling on.

 

I finally managed to escape them.

 

How ever I feel my circumstances were never considered and my account was never reviewed fully. I tried to apply for one again in just after the one in feb 2014 when I was struggling but I think Wonga had finally reviewed my case and deemed that it had gone against responsible lending and refused me.

 

Can anyone give a step by step procedure.

I would suggest you have a read round other Wonga threads to see how they have dealt with a claim against irresponsible lending.

 

It might be worth obtaining a SAR - Subject Access Request from Wonga. Also get copies of your credit files from around the time you were borrowing from them to see if they had been doing even the basic of credit checks.

 

The figures you have posted above - are these the loans you took out ? If so, it pretty much identifies that you were borrowing to repay the previous loan !

 

There are some information threads in the Pay Day Loan forums which will provide some basic steps you need to take before progressing.

Hi

I agree with CitizenB. Definitely a SAR to Wonga but you may need to do the same for the credit reference agencies as the £2 statutory report or the free ones from Noddle and Clearscore won't show much info going right back to the beginning.

Based on the above amounts, these are the amounts paid back. How many times were they rolled over? At the time Wonga loved this practice as it was basically 'free' money to them.

 

Getting accurate figures is a must as well as all the account info.

Once you have all these, you can work out when it should have been realised that you were in financial problems (if that was before you told them)

 

If you go to the financial ombudsmans decisions page there are loads of complaints. Have a read of some and see if any of the decisions are similar to yours.
