    • 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 have a similar questions.

 

I was foolish enough to leave the UK in Feb 2014 with mobile phone contracts debts of no more than GBP 2,500 due to expiry of PSW visa. I did pay a minimal amount back.

 

However, now my company wants me to visit UK for a business trip (3-4 days). I am in process of applying for a visit visa - business and was hoping to find out if my visa will be rejected due to debts or CCJ.

 

I tried to check if I have a CCJ through Experian sometime ago but the address I lived in was locked (basically they couldn't provide any details and send a letter saying someone tried to check to the address).

 

do not know if I have a CCJ and will I have any problems in getting a visa.

 

Would appreciate your help.

 

 

Regards,

Baz

Thank you.

 

Can the debt collection company issue a CCJ in my absence.

 

Lets say the landlord told them that I was no longer in the UK?

 

Also is there a way to find out if I have a CCJ?

and if yes,

will I have an issue obtaining a visa?

 

As part of my visa application,

our partner firm in UK issued a letter that I was visiting for 3 - 4 days for a business trip and that I am well known to them and stand in good stature.

 

 

Thanks in advance.

Baz

"HAVE YOU HAD ANY UK COURT JUDGEMENT AGAINST

 

YOU FOR NON-PAYMENT OF A DEBT, OR RECEIVED A

 

CIVIL PENALTY UNDER UK IMMIGRATION ACTS?"

Thank you for this.

 

The form I am completing is an online form so slightly different but the question 6.12 is identical. Actually on the online form the questions is under travel and criminal history section.

 

In your opinion and from your experience, will I have issues in obtaining a business visit visa in case I have a CCJ ?

Baz
