    • 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 all

 

took out a loan with Blemain on 25/09/07 ,is due to finish 25/09/2017

 

£11k loan ,interest charge £11,316.77 plus brokers fee £1375 and acceptance fee £310

 

all together £24,001,77

agreement states 120 monthly payments of £200.02 interest rate 14.40% variable

 

totals £24,002,40

 

have never missed a monthly payment ,

only receive a yearly statement ,

 

going on their calculations there will be a shortfall of at least £5,000

,have received the occasional letter that they will charge the account for not issueing them with a copy of buildings insurance straight away,

admin fee is always £30.00

and insurance charge is a contingency one ,

which they never say the cost and does NOT appear on the yearly statement,

 

all that appears on the yearly statement is interest charge 14.40% ,

 

They do however state they charge interest on what they consider to be late charges ,insurance charge being one of them ,mmmmmmmmmm £5,000 of extra charges over the loan period, me thinks they make rules up as they go along

 

so in short guys

 

last payment this month ,

there will be at least a £5,000 shortfall ,

so what do i do,

 

the debits should stop anyway

,but they will contact me about the ridiculous shortfall ,

who do i contact about this ,am getting in a right state about this

 

kindest regards

 

Robert

update by myself the monthly payments of £200.02 were calculated at 19.9% over 10 years ,it would appear the 14.40% interest charge is in addition to the original ie: making it a whopping 34.3 % in total,surely illegal ,how on earth do they get away with it

Have had similar problem with another company in the same group. There a nasty company and you will need a firm of solicitors willing to take them on. Be aware they play dirty and I have had to change my solicitors twice. If you want any assistance or compare notes then I will try and assist but my hands are quite tied at the moment as my case is subject to appeal.

Get reclaiming!!

Did you already have buildings ins with another lender

 

All the fees can be reclaimed and all the fake insurances

 

Sar them

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...

you need a clear and understandable breakdown of your account that includes all penalties, charges and add-ons, If they are saying you owe money they need to prove it

Blemain / Together is a nasty rip off company that are so embarrassed they have had to change their name to enable them to continue ripping people off.
