    • Your page numbers should run through your WX and exhibits so im concerned its page x of 9.
    • Paragraph 18 – you are still talking about Boston stolen items. About time this was fixed??? Paragraph 19  In any event, the claimant's PS5 gaming device was correctly declared and correctly valued. The defendant accepted it for carriage and was even prepared to earn extra money by selling sell insurance in case of its loss or damage. New paragraph 20 – this the defendant routinely sells insurance in respect of "no compensation" items (a secondary contract contrary to section 72 CRA 2015) new paragraph above paragraph 20 – the defendant purports to limit its liability in respect of lost or damaged items. This is contrary to section 57 of the consumer rights act 2015. The defendant offers to extend their liability if their customer purchases an insurance cover for an extra sum of money. This insurance is a secondary contract calculated to exclude or limit their liability for the defendants contractual breaches and is contrary to section 72 of the consumer rights act 2015. New paragraph below paragraph 42 – the defendant merely relies on "standard industry practice" You haven't pointed to the place in your bundle of the Telegraph newspaper extract. You have to jiggle the paragraphs around. Even though I have suggested new paragraph numbers, the order I have suggested is on your existing version 5. You will have to work it out for your next version. Good luck!   Let's see version 6 Separately, would you be kind enough to send me an unredacted to me at our admin email address.

    • Yep, those 'requirements' not met to shareholders satisfaction seem to me to be: 1.

    • 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.

I booked my Jaguar XF for servicing at KWIK FIT located at 136-142 New Kent Road, London SE1 6TU, due to a "service needed" fault light.

On my way to the garage on Thursday 9th November, I receive a battery fault light and I had to call the RAC and when he arrived, the RAC technician checked my car and said it was an alternator fault, so I decided to take the car to KWIK FIT to fix both the Alternation and servicing.

 

KWIK FIT called my phone after checking the car to inform me that i needed;

 

1. A new alternator

2. A new battery

3. Four new tyres

5. Whole set of brake pad and disc for the whole car

6. Servicing

 

all this was now totally £1,700,00.

 

I explained to them that The RAC technician tested my battery and confirmed to me and the KWIK FIT manager, that my battery was good and all I needed was just an alternator and servicing and only the rear brake pad because, when I done my MOT last, it stated that my rear brake is getting worn out and I should change, but in contrast, KWIK FIT was forcefully persuading me to carry out a repair not needed.

 

They were also forcing me to buy four new tyres even though my tyres were not bad, saying that the tyres on my car is for BMW, so I have to buy KWIK FIT tyres.

 

After all the forceful offers by Kwik Fit, I decided to get a

New Alternation, new battery and servicing from KWIK FIT at an amount of £850.00

 

The result of all this was a disaster when I picked up my car on Monday 13th of November 2017.

 

* KWIK FIT did not stamp my service book record that they claimed to have stamp after the work, so I had to go back to inform them and make them stamp it.

 

* KWIK FIT left a car part cover from my car abandoned on the non driver front seat without replacing it back from where it was removed, and when I complained, the manager said it was not a problem, that it does not matter to leave a car part cover on my seat because "it will not stopping the car".

 

* The service light KWIK FIT claimed to have reset after servicing my car was still illuminated on the instrument panel, as it was before I paid KWIK FIT to service my car.

 

* KWIK FIT damaged the rubber pad liner on my driver side door, causing my driver door not to close properly anymore.

 

* KWIK FIT offered me a battery I did not require, even though an RAC technician tested the battery and said to them it was okay.

 

Just after two days of driving the car after collecting it from KWIK FIT, I discovered that there was a hot vapour water brewing continuously from the engine and when I opened the engine, there was brownish engine radiator water all over my engine bonnet surroundings and the hot vapour was dangerously coming out from the engine.

 

I contacted the manager to explain to him but he was very unhelpful, arrogant and showed a non nonchalant attitude and was trying to make it act like nothing wrong had happened and when I asked for his area manager contact number or their customer service to complaint, he said I must drive down to his garage to get their numbers, if I wanted his customer service or area manager's contacts.

 

I eventually searched online and contacted their head office and spoke to a person named sofia, who say she will get the area manager to ring me after 2 to 3 working days to discuss my predicament and disastrous service I have received from the staff at Kwik Fit New Kent Road.

 

In summary; Kwik Fit New Kent Road,

 

1. KWIK FIT sold me a battery I did not need, even when RAC tested my old battery and said it was in a perfect state.

2. KWIK FIT collected money for servicing and it appeared it was not serviced as the service light is still showing,

3. Persuading me to buy tyres I did not need, even though I just recently changed my tyres and nothing is wrong with the tyres,

4. Damaged the rubber padding of my driver side door badly,

5. Damaged the car after claiming to have serviced it and it is now producing hot vapourised smoke like heated water coming from inside the bonnet and visible to every one and looks like a car that is about to catch fire.

6. Covered inside of my engine bonnet with brownish like water as a result of their reckless work.

7. Claimed to have stamped my service book when they did not and I had to discover it before they reluctantly stamped it.

8. Let a car part material on the front non driver seat of my car and said it was okay to leave it there because, it will not stop the car from moving,

9. The manager at Kwik Fit New Kent Road was denying me the opportunity to make a complaint about the appalling service I received, by not providing me their customer service number or area manager contact, thereby intentionally trying to silent me,

10. I and my family depend on this car and my children could have sustained injuries from sitting on the car part car left on the front seat by KWIK FIT, which could have resulted in fatal injury.

 

I am immediately requesting that this complaints be investigated fully as soon as possible and that the rip off culture I have experienced at Kwik Fit New Kent Road London, must be stopped and that my car fixed immediately.

 

I will be taking the matter to court by Monday 20th November 2017, if this matters is not resolved amicable and I will also be letting the world know via social media, the kind of bad and disappointing mechanical, customer and rip off experience, I went through at KWIK FIT New Kent Road London, with wanting to get away with £850.00 of my hard earn income, as well damaging my Jaguar XF.

You have to check the coolant level immediately as the steam is probably a leak or they didn't close the expansion tank cap, or they splashed coolant in the engine bay and now is mixing with oil giving that brown appearance.

Let a jaguar specialist to have a look, it costs more than Kwik fit but at least you won't burn the engine.

The service light needs resetting and Kwik fit don't have the software: Look online for a manual reset, sometimes it's a simple thing not requiring special equipment.

Even if you had brand new tyres, discs and pads, Kwik fit will always try to sell you new ones.

That's the only thing they make a lot of money on.
