    • 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 recently moved town nearly a year ago and joined a new doctors surgery.

 

I was diagnosed with Celiac Disease by my previous doctor.

I attended my new doctor for a problem with my skin and I told him it must be connected to my celiac problem.

He said he doesn't have that on record which was odd and he did another blood test

Assuring me I have not got celiac and can eat anything.

 

instead transferred me to a demonologist.

So did eat anything and my skin condition also went worse.

 

I was told that 100 percent I have celiac and had been to specialist in hospital and they agreed in the town I lived previously.

have gone back to gluten free diet and that’s improved my health

I’m still waiting for the skin appointment which is this year.

 

My point is once you have celiac you have it all your life you just goto stay gluten free.

I presume the blood test came clear because I have been on the gluten free diet over a year

I guess it’s right it wouldn’t show on new blood test

 

I went back to doctors and said that he just ignored me and said wait for skin appointment.

I don’t know what to do with the doctor who I believe has not done his job properly which has made my health worse.

Hi

 

When you say you were diagnosed with this disease by your previous doctor could you clarify the following:

 

Was this actually diagnosed by your GP or a Hospital Consultant you were refered to?

 

What were the results of the blood test taken? have you asked?

 

Have you asked your new GP if they have applied for your medical records from your old GP? (when you register they should apply to the NHS central register for your NHS records from old GP)

From my previous doctor who diagnosed me said I do and directed me to consultant and so did they. Just told me to stay on a gluten free diet. I had moved just 6 months after. I had moved 2 surgeries then he maybe don’t have my records from the first one.

Hi. I agree with what stu has said about your records.

 

 

I'm also allergic to gluten and think you should listen to what your body is telling you for now if you feel better without gluten, as long as you're on a balanced diet. I know from experience how eating the wrong thing can make you feel, it's not worth it.

Ghost1, I too wonder if your new practice has received your records yet. When you’re registered on their system it creates an automated message to your old practice to forward your notes to the new practice via what was a very well established process. Until the government outsourced it to Capita. Capita have been all over the news about the delays in collecting, storing and delivering records to new practices. If someone were to transfer from a practice in England to ours in Wales they can expect it to take over 12 months for a full record to reach us. We usually contact the old practice ourselves and ask for a brief summary to be faxed to us so we have something to go on but not every practice is willing/able to do that.

 

I can’t comment on how the blood results would have affected the GP’s decision making as I’m not clinically trained but hopefully the very real possibility that your GP was working blind in respect of your records through no fault of their own might explain their actions.

My views are my own and are not representative of any organisation. if you've found my post helpful please click on the star below.

Re: “demonologist”

 

Sorry to appear too flippant but couldn't help but notice this and wonder ?

 

Best auto-correct ever?

My autocorrect comes up with “demonology” (but not “demonologist”)

I may never be able to see the word “dermatologist” again without thinking of this and chortling!

If you were following a strict gluten free diet at the time the test was taken it would give a false negative even if you are in fact coeliac. the blood test actually tests for a reaction to gluten, therefore no gluten = no reaction = negative test result. I would perhaps wait a while for your records to come over to your new gp then go back to them when they will be able to see your original results. it seems odd that they would test you again rather than simply wait for your records, its not the type of test that needs repeated
