    • Thank you both, I will make those changes. I have also downloaded the compensation list to add to the evidence and complete the protection bit off their website.  I am going to court next Thursday to deliver the bundle; I will confirm this on Tuesday. I have been to court a few times to represent the military when a soldier is in court, but I will be going. Thank you for all the additional advice. Once I have the whole bundle, I will email it to the admin email. Ill be honest, this is not about the money for me, I do not mind losing that, so I will not be signing a confidentiality agreement.   You guys are amazing
    • Actually there wasn't a massive amount of work to do on the WS.  The "meat" was there because of the great work you'd already done. Here is a version which I think is nigh-on finished. However, with Easter there are a few days for the other regulars to suggest tweaks. Defendant WS.pdf
    • Hi all, We bought a part to fix our washing machine approx 13 months ago direct from the manufacturer of the washing machine via phone. This part then failed 13 months later, as confirmed by their own engineer, who was sent by the manufacturer (who is also the retailer for the part) FoC. The engineer actually installed a replacement part, the machine came back to life, but they then removed the part used for testing (and ours reinstalled) as "we would be charged for it". The retailer are refusing to replace the part, stating that they only warranty parts for 90 days. When I stated that I believed the Consumer Rights Act gives me longer than that, they insinuated that it did not, and this was repeated by many representatives. AIUI for goods bought more than 6 months ago, I need to get an engineers report to confirm the part has failed? Or that it has failed due to manufacturing issues? Or would the companies own engineers report suffice? Also, does anyone have any other decent contact details for Hotpoint (or the Whirlpool group)? Thanks, GH
    • Thank you for that "read me", It's a lot to digest, lots of legal procedure. There was one thing that I was going to mention to you,  but in one of the conversations in that thread it was mentioned that there may be spies on the Forum,  this is something that I've read quite some time ago in a previous thread. What I had in mind was to wait for the thirty days after their reply to my CCA request and then send the unenforceable letter. I was hoping that an absence of signature could be the Silver Bullet but it seems that there are lot of layers to peel on this Onion.

    • 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.

Hello to you all

 

I have been reading and digging out numerous threads on RBS and how I can request for a overdraft charge sheet from years back. I was wondering what exactly should be the wording of the letter and what I should be looking out for in the details of the sheets they send me, this is regarding what I can and can't claim back.

 

Many thanks.

Many thanks for your response DX.

 

Does this May 25th has anything to do with the General Data Protection Regulation coming into full force from the EU.

 

Also, a bit of a silly question

but, what is this post 3 referred to in the SAR templates that is deemed imperative to be read before using any of the SAR guides?

Right, I'd contact them first week of June, and then come back with all the info I can get from there to take things further. This is an amazing site and really love what you guys have done here, I wish I knew half of the things I've binge read here in the last 72 hours, would have saved me tonnes of trouble and other ugly financial/consumer dealings from the past. Cheers.

Hi DX,

I'm back again with more questions/queries. Over the last five, six years I've had the following financial transactions/ packages;

 

Everyday Loans (payday)

Very Credit Card

Capital One Credit card

RBS current account

 

Close Military Brothers car finance/loan

 

Very online/catalogue account

 

 

I'm very much interested in sending SAR out to all of them, just to see what I can find and or come up with. Is it ok to use the generic SAR template and throw in a request for any PPI's as well, are they compelled to especially release information about the PPI bit.

 

The last account I closed was Closed Military Brothers, I voluntarily terminated the agreement after paying a little over half of it. I forked out nearly 400 GBP to serbice the car, MOT, as well as two brand new tyres out of courtesy, I still have the receipts for it all. I was made to pay for a Gap insurance addon I had on the agreement before it could terminate, I asked for receipt which they claimed was not possible as they don't issue receipt for the gap insurance payments so they fobbed me off on that one.

 

Two months down the line these people came back telling me I owed them 2 months worth of late payment/arrears because the car was in my possession. This situation came about as a result of them not being able to find a car auctioning company on time to come take the vehicle rght after the agreement ended. And twice they sent someone out to my address without informong me. They were very adamant that I owed them till I threatened to escalate the issue to the FOS/FTA as my wife was getting stressed out by their barrage of phone calls and letters to my address.

 

They suddenly dropped the case and also deliberately refused to send me a copy of the agreement affer I had explicityly asked for it, thing is, I do not have the original agreement and feel there's something I might have missed and which they either dont want coming out or me discussing it.

 

Anyleads on how to go about this one specifically or I should just go ahead and SAR them as well after 25th May and take it from there?

 

Find attached as screenshot of the last post from them
