    • 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 got spoofed out of £1,000 by these fraudsters and the bank have refused to give me my money back.

I was stupid enough to fill in the form on line and then I found it strange

called bank to stop cards and they said it was online Sc@m.

They said they would watch my account, not to worry, and issued new card and pin.

 

3 days later my cards came and i got a call from "the bank" but it was the sc@mmers.

(They had my number from the online form I filled out for the fake refund).

 

They said they would send me a code to my phone and to confirm the code for security reasons.

I gave them the code and they started talking to me about what had happened and said someone tried to take £500 out my account but they blocked it and was calling to make sure it was not me.

During this time, they downloaded the bank app onto their phone and using the code, transferred online 3 transactions totalling £994.

 

After the call, I checked my account and noted then called the bank who stopped the account but could not stop the transactions.

 

After an investigation they said because I gave this code to them I am liable.

 

I have complained and they said I won't get my money back.

 

I want to know if this is right.

They knew this fraud was happening but did nothing to warn me and had a duty of care to watch out for me and protect my money.

 

I did not authorise these transactions, even though they had the code to download the app, the actual authorisation and transfers were not done by me.

 

I have been sick and unwell because of this and wondered if there was anything I can do because the bank should have done more to protect me and the transactions were not authorised.

I know.. I was really stupid and it all happened so fast and didn't think they could be so scandalous in the way they manipulated me.

i complained and they sent me a final letter saying they won't refund me.

 

Can you tell me if i should give them a letter before action

- I am unsure of the content though

- legal stance or what information i can put in the letter to encourage them to pay me back.

 

Any help with the letter would be appreciated.

Update: Today I obtained the DSAR.

They said on the letter "your request for credit information", I actually was explicit in what I wanted. Anyway, they only sent me bank statements and a password protected disk.

 

They did not send:

Account notes

Translation/transcript of calls

Any information relating to my banking app

No information about text messages sent to me from the bank.

 

1. What is my next step regarding this. As far as i am concerned, they have deliberately withheld this information/failed to comply with my GDPR/SAR request??

2. I have sent them a recorded letter giving them 7 days to refund me. They already sent a final letter clarifying their position, which is; they won't be refunding me. I am filing in a small claims court application after 7 days and will update you thereafter.

Update: Court papers filled out and submitted. Awaiting bank defending/responding.

 

Question: Can anyone advise me of any terminology or rules or onus which refers to a bank having a duty of care when it comes to protecting customers accounts/money? Is there any information I can refer to at all regarding this information? The general bank contract/agreement is void of any such information. Thanks in advance.
