    • 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 have recently had a notice that I am going to be evicted on July 29th at 11.30am. I went to court today to hand in my N244 form, and the earliest date they could give me for a hearing is July 29th at 10am! They have said that the judge could still order the eviction to take place at 11.30am, but I would have no chance of being able to get back to where I live in time to get my stuff. (The court is in a nearby town) I'd also have no time to organise somewhere else to move to.

 

I am currently in the process of selling my house, I am going to be renting the house from the buyer. He has a mortgage in place, and we are basically waiting to exchange contracts, but the solicitors seem to be dragging their heels about sending us the paperwork, and that is even though they know about the eviction, and they have me calling them daily to chase things up. I have been told that the judge won't let the eviction go through as I have a buyer, and we are basically just asking for more time for the sale to complete. However, after being told the hearing is going to be just 90 minutes before the eviction is due to take place, I am now really worried, especially as I have two young children - they are 10 and 8.

 

Does anyone have any advice for me? I'd really, really appreciate it.

 

Many thanks in advance.

I would be calling my mortgage Company and letting them know the hearing is taking place that day.

 

I would have thought with you already having a buyer there would be some consideration.?

 

You must also cover your call with a recorded delivery advice ASAP and take a copy of that letter to court with you to show you have told them that day you will be in court.

 

Hopefully some one here will help you write a letter.

 

If not just put the facts and say if you are given extra time for the eviction to take place, and they go to your house, then they will be going against a courts decision.

 

Which won't be good for them I'm sure.

 

Why is the sale taking so long,? I hope your buyer isn't hoping to get it at a reduced price once its been repo'ed.

 

could you also get a letter from your solicitor to take to court advising the sale is in process.?

Thank you so much for replying.

 

I do have a letter from my solicitor saying that they are representing me in the sale. The mortgage company is Capstone, who, apart from one chap, have been really aggressive when I talk to them. I'm 3,900 in arrears, and my last payment was in May.

Sorry, The Plough - I was replying to Bona at the same time you were replying to my original post!

 

The original seller lost his Father just before we were due to sign the contracts, and basically went AWOL. I then found another buyer, and this sale has only been going through for three weeks. My seller was expecting to exchange contracts this week as well, but we're still waiting on the solicitors!

 

I was told by the lady at the court that they would tell the bailiffs that I was at court at 10am, but that, if the judge decided to let the eviction go ahead at 11.30am, then it still would.

Dont panick There is law that if the arreas can be paid within the terms of the mortgage then they suspend as your arreas will and as long as you can show that the exchange of contracts will be iminante then you should be fine
