    • 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.

Good evening......

 

I had the pleasure of a member of Resolve Calls team visit my home this evening with regard to an old debt of an unsecured loan taken out with Northern Rock in 2004

- last paid via debt management in 2014.

 

Cabot took up this debt in 2015,

I sent them a CCA request in Jan 16 but from memory only received a standard response.

 

I have two questions i could really do with some advice on

 

1) Should I write to Cabot reminding them of the outstanding CCA request or resend the request?

From memory i think they sent a generic response effectively saying they were 'looking for it' .

I know i should have kept this info, however the original signed agreement was definitely never provided.

 

2) Is there a letter or anything I can communicate to prevent these people just turning up at my door?

They wrote to me months ago informing me of Resolve Calls involvement but i assumed it was fairly generic.

 

The guy was very polite and non-threatening,

I gave him no more info than he could find from the electoral roll,

his objective seemed to be to get me to call his office on my doorstep at 7.30pm in the dark.

 

At this point i politely told him that wouldn't be happening so he gave me a card with details on to call.

I work away fairly often and do not want these people turning up when my partner and young son are at home alone.

 

Thanks in advance for any advice

1.no.

 

2.no.

 

next time he calls tell him to leave your property.film him with a mobile phone

 

tell him if he ever turns up again you will ring police 101

 

totally powerless door knockers wanting to pocket any money he gets off of you.

DCA's view debtors as suckers, marks and mugs

NO DCA has ANY legal powers whatsoever on ANY debt no matter what it's Type

and they

are NOT and can NEVER  be BAILIFFS. even if a debt has been to court..

If everyone stopped blindly paying DCA's Tomorrow, their industry would collapse overnight...

Thanks DX,

Is it worth re-submitting a CCA request to Cabot?

I cannot for the life of me find their reply or proof of my postage.

I want to do something to stop these people turning up in the evening!

 

My last payment to this debt was in early 2014 via a debt management company, is it likely they will proceed with a CCJ against me?

sending a new CCa will not stop collection activities.

hi guys,

thanks for the help...

I will take no further action and be sure to tell any further callers where to go.

 

As per your advice DX,

that collection activities will not stop regardless of CCA request being sent,

Cabot have had this debt since around 2015.

 

In my mind i think if they were going to proceed with a CCJ they would have done it by now but as you say cannot see into the future.

If they do proceed with this, and i have no copy of the original agreement from them does this work in my favour?

If there is another thread for a similar scenario,

please let me know and i will have a look.

when you say "They wrote to me months ago informing me of Resolve Calls involvement but i assumed it was fairly generic."

Was it just one letter and then this house call? I am kind of in the same situation and also have a small family so don't really want them knocking on the door and causing concern to my family - was your original letters from UK Asset Resolution?

Hi Jackman,

 

I think I had a couple of letters well before Christmas, but nothing recently then the guy just knocked the door about 7ish last Wednesday trying to phone Resolvcall in my presence and pass the phone to me. To be honest he seemed more nervous of me than i was of him, once i told him it was time to go he left pretty quick. I have just told my missus to do the same if/when they call again.

never engage in anything.

they are POWERLESS.
