    • 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 everybody

 

There are so many different addresses for Lloyds SAR requests. Bit confused which to use.

 

Does anybody know of correct one as sending tomorrow.

 

Thanks

There is no point in sending an SAR tomorrow. The new GDPR rules come into force on 25 May – 10 days time. The existing rules provide a 40 day deadline. The new rules provide a 30 day deadline. That means that the time limit for producing the disclosure will be exactly the same if you apply tomorrow or you wait until the new rules.

 

The difference is that under the new rules the SAR is free of charge and you can apply by email - subject to satisfactory evidence of identity. Under the existing rules, they will charge you £10 fee.

 

Also, I expect that under the new rules at least for a few months they will be superefficient about what they do because they are very worried about the consequences of breaching their obligations. It will depend on the ICO, but they may eventually fall back into the usual disregard of anybody's legal rights, but to begin with it should be pretty impressive.

 

Also, if you want to send an SAR now, you will have to identify every data controller within the group and send them each an SAR. Under the new rules, they have a cascading system. You identify the data controller and you send the SAR there and they have a duty to make sure that the disclosure request is satisfied by every organisation within the group.

 

They are also required to inform you with whom they have shared the data, and if you want the data erased – assuming that you are entitled have erased, they are obliged to take all reasonable steps to have the data erased. You are also entitled to ask them how they came by the data and what it's used for and also to ask them about any automatic processes that have been used for decision-making. Some of this is already available – that you will find that these companies will have renewed their focus.

 

Which company are you sending the SAR to? Identify the registered head office and send it to the data controller. Do it on 25 May

I just noticed that your thread is about Lloyds so I understand that you are sending it to Lloyds. Lloyds habitually breach their SAR obligations. They are thoroughly unreliable and dishonest – I would expect that under the new regime they will be a bit more careful – at least in the short term.
