    • 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.

My wife received a letter today from lantern saying they have been trying to contact her.

It says she owes £722.91 but doesn't say who to, it simply has an account number.

 

She has no idea who the debt is with and nothing is on her credit file.

 

They are saying unless she pays up in 7 days they are referring her to resolvecall.

 

How should we deal with this?

moved to the lantern forum

 

they usually only chase payday loans they have bought

 

resolvecall are [as with all DCA's] totally powerless and are NOT BAILIFFS.

should you get a dirty mac brigade at your door

say nowt bar tell them to leave else you'll call police 101.

 

you say her credit file is clear?

and her old addresses are all showing ?

well I was thinking that someone might have used her details because she obv didn't update creditors etc when she moved

so some little tyke might have used all the stuff still sent thereto gander her pers details to open fraudulent credit accounts everywhere in her name

but as theres nowt on her credit report, that seems remote now. but not impossible

well today we have received a reply.

 

they say that there were 2 accounts with northway financial. both are payday loans, 1 for £200 plus costs and 1 for £250 plus costs.

i have asked my wife about these and she says she doesn't recall them at all.

 

they have supplied some paperwork that implies they were from 2008 at 1 of my wife's previous addresses.

none of the paperwork shows any signatures and they say they are unable to provide us with a copy of the deed assignment as this is legally privileged and commercially sensitive that contains details of third party accounts. should we require a copy of this documentation, they say we need to request a copy through the courts.

You asked for the deed of assignment? Or you didnt and its them being clever?

 

Yes identify theft

If they were defaulted more than 6yrs ago they wont show no.

 

But that also smacks of them being statute barred?

When was last payment do they say?

we didnt ask for deed of assignment,

we sent them a cca request as you suggested.

 

it doesnt say that any payments were ever made.

all it says is the amount on loan and duration of 29 and 31 days respectively for the loans, both taken out early 2008.

 

from what i can see, nothing as ever been paid back.

  • 3 weeks later...

i did as you said and sent the statute barred letter.

 

we have received a reply stating that the account is on hold while they conduct their investigations

 

. however, we have since received a letter from resolvecall saying they have been instructed by lantern to arrange a personal visit.

 

today, i have come home from work to find a card on the doormat saying that they have visited and want to speak to my wife immediately

Ignore resolvecall. Completely.

Any advice i give is my own and is based solely on personal experience. If in any doubt about a situation , please contact a certified legal representative or debt counsellor..
