    • 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.

Hello, I am trying to reclaim PPi from 2 places, One is First Plus and the other HSBC, HSBC are my bank and I have banked with them for years I had loans dating back to 2001, which at the time I was only contracted to work for 10 hours a week, and was told I was not able to have PPI, however they did charge me PPI and now I want it back as if I had ever needed to I would not have been able to claim, apparently you have to work for 16 hours a week at least to be able to have PPI, so the sales lady told me to put down that I did overtime, which sometimes I did but not always in order to have the PPI, they are not allowing me my money back as they say my loans have been settled and that is that. My other niggle is FirstPlus, who unknown to me make you repay interest on the PPI for the whole term of the loan even though the PPI itself only lasts 5 years, I am not a happy bunny as they also will not refund or let me cancel my PPI saying that if I did I would only get a small reduction in my monthly payments as more of the PPI is put onto the first year of the loan (confused I am) why shoul dI pay them for 25 years for something that only lasts five and then I would have to take out extra PPI, to cover the remaining 20 years hence paying twice. Help :-x

One more point on this is it is a joint loan yet only my husband is covered for accident, sickness and redundancy, I pay for this loan from my bank account yet it seems that I have to die (god forbid) before I can make a claim can this be right. Sorry this is the FirstPlus loan only not HSBC. Surely joint cover should be both of us.

Hello there I have sent off first letter to Central Capital who broked the loan for me for FirstPlus, they have sent back a final response saying no. With HSBC I have sent of a request for the PPI repayments along with documents like my contract of employment at the time stating that I only worked 10 hours, they also say no even though I was told I was unable to have PPI due to the hours that I worked so I am stuck now, not sure what to do next.

Hello TM,

 

MMMmmm the loan with First Plus is not going to be a easy one I am afraid, due to the fact Central Capital arranged the loan for you. They will blame each other. Gemini's thread is similair as she took out loans with Ocean Finance. Maybe have a read of that thread, I will post it up for you to read.

 

Now HSBC would say no, even if you did not work, were over 70 and had every medical condition going. Keep at them and do not take no for the answer.

 

What did you say in your letter????

Knock me down with a feather, received phone call from HSBC last night saying they are going to support my claim and are refunding over £2000, oddly enough yesterday morning I spoke to them to see what else I could do and they said that they were still looking into it again, maybe it was because they had received my Contract of Employment and they can't argue with that but less than 4 hours later received phone call making me an offer, strange really I was geared up for a good old fight. Now I can concentrate on FirstPlus. Thank you I will let you know how I get on any more ideas please let me know.

Hello Twinsmum,

 

Well I never, they are renouned for refusing to even consider complaints. But you have them by the short and curlies, so obviously they know its a good case of mis-selling. Well done

 

Have they offered the whole amount plus interest that you are intitled to, don't want to sell yourself short now do you.

 

You can ask for their rate of contractual interest or the Statutory 8% interest. They have deprived you of that money and in doing so caused you financial hardship:D So you now play the tune

 

If you need help with figures etc, give me a shout.

Had acceptance letter signed it and returned, obviousley opted to have money paid into another account, just in case they try to close my account of something and use some of it to pay off my overdraft (quick thinking) apparently they are closing peoples accounts I think that is so wrong, they did say in their letter that I was a valued customer of theirs (yeah right) and that this would not affect my relationship with them at all. Now going after First Plus and also think I may have a claim with GE Capital noticed Account cover on my card, never asked for that it started off as a Mothercare Storecard and somewhere along the way has turned into a Mothercare Mastercard how did that happen?????. Will keep you posted, good luck to everyone.

Yes, pretty sure they are sending me enough as far as I can work out, they were actually quite nice about it really concerns me a little hence having money paid into my Barclays account instead.
