    • Hi Caught Shoplifting at John Lewis - Retail loss Prevention/Other shoplifting allegations. - Consumer Action Group Thanks a lot for commenting this experience of yours. I do understand this might be something that you are not willing to talk about anymore but the same exact scenario happened with me today at John Lewis. They took my name/ address/ a picture of me holding a signed banned letter. the only questions I've got are... will I be contacted by the police will this be recorded as police caution or criminal record?  I would really really appreciate if you could let me know how it went.  I am so so so ashamed of myself and am really making changes in my life I feel like I've lost myself for a period of my life but anyways it would be really great to hear back. Thanks

    • 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.

Have received an offer of half from Barclays.

 

They owe me 2115, got the letter on Friday, deadline is today. spoke to Kiran Bogul, Customer Relations Manager 0207 116 2692.

 

She wouldnt budge on the offer, she told me that it would be up to barclays if they want to disclose how a charge figure is arrived at in court.

 

No problems, i look forwards to receiving my 2115 plus 500+ interest and costs from you in the next four to six weeks and trust it will further clogg up the time of your already no doubt panicking legal team.

 

Shall be on Moneyclaim at midnight.

Good for you :lol: The more and more this happens the more and more they are going to look like what they are - pathetic... they spout on about how their charges are fair and yet if they really believed that they would stand up in court, just once, and prove it to us all!

Incidentally i addressed my details to Anita Hicks - the contact on the sticky at the top of Barclays cover page - and it was Anita who passed it on to Kiran, who was pretty useless to be fair.

 

I said it was pointless trying not to give me back what is mine, it is an insignificant amount to the bank and will only mean more work for someone further down the line.

 

' Mr Long, i think it is a fair offer'

Well, she would say that wouldn't she (apologies to Mandy R-D)

The law, in its majestic equality, forbids the rich as well as the poor to sleep under bridges, to beg in the streets, and to steal bread.

Im sure if the securitas robbers dropped 25 million off at the nearest copshop and declared it a ' fair offer ', the police would immediately snatch their hand off and call it quits!

Now someone has advised that i should receive something from the bank in the alloted time period, as such i havent recieved anything from anybody.

 

Can anyone with specific experience or knowledge please advise on this?

You will possibly receive a letter from the bank or their solicitors offering payment in full, as a gesture of goodwill, but without admission of liability. The usual excuses they seem to give are because the costs involved in defending the action through the courts are not recoverable, etc, etc
