    • 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 put another thread on here ages ago about my bank charges by the RBS. To cut a long story short - i had an extended over draft - 'verbal' agreement that they call, i remembered giving them a date of when it would revert back to my ORIGINAL overdraft. However, i forgot about htis and days latter i received a letter - reveiw date, terms and conditions - this letter did no say what it was reffering to, i then assumed it would relate to my EXTENDED overdarft. Anyways they cancelled my extended over draft without notice. This left me over 1k in the red. I called customer services on several occasions to resolve this - only to be told: 'sorry we cant help you'. I also went into the bank to complain about this - they promised this would be taken care of. They gave me over 500pounds in charges because of unpaid DD ect. Anyways, on occasions when i called customer services, i had some DD coming out - i checked online banking and it said the items were paid, i asked the customer services advisors and they agreed it did go through - WRONG - what they did NOT do wa sinform me that if i have insufficiant funds the DD would come back unpaid - this thenb put me in a great position to get my money back - illeglay missinformed information - tut tut RBS.

 

So...this is how i got my money back:

 

I wrote a letter expalining that i recevied that reveiw date - which did not tell me what it was for. I also complained about customer services telling me they could not help me when they sent letters telling me to call customer services to sort this issue out in the first place. I also said they (customer services) told me the wrong information and claimed my DD went through when they did not. I then told them becuase i had no money and they were charging me for everything i was homeless and in hospital becuase i did not eat. I told them i went to the CAB and seeked legal advice and said i would take them to court.

 

They then refunded ALL the money back into my account :D
