    • 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.

:mad:About 18 months ago i bought a Samsung 32 inch lcd tv, I took out cover which i thought was a to make sure that if anything went wrong that it would cover me.

Then a mark apeared on the screen, so i phoned Bright House and they sent someone out to have a look and they took the tv away. They left me a Philips tv to watch in the mean time, with the wrong remote so i could not retune so only had 7 channels. This went on for 6 weeks being told that they had to send it to two places... so i kept paying for it.

And 2 weeks later it came back with the mark gone so i thought ok took its time but then two days later mark came back on the screen. I phoned them up again and the bloke came again to look at it and said to me its no good we will have to get you a replacement. I thought troubles over till he told me that they would replace it with a tv of same age and condition ......wtf........ extra cover for what? The manager says like for like so after really getting ****ed off with them i had no choice but to accept this so i waited to hear from them to tell me when i would get this tv. Months past no word, still paying for the tv. Then i went into the shop and asked manager and he said i forgot about it will get on to it straight away. So he phoned me up saying cant get you a Samsung but we have a Philps tv i said no way i payed for a Samsung and that is what i want! So he said i will have to ring up area manager to get a new tv,so he rings up and says it is ok to give him a new tv.

So i thinks thank god this is sorted he said we will have it for you next week Waited still no tv, and then he phones me and says we have found you a replacement talk about messing me about so he says to me phone me monday and i will give you a date for when it will come, as he is going away on hoilday. So i phoned him Monday and he says still dont know but i will defo have it with you this week.

He is now on hoilday and no tv,so i rang up today and spoke too someone else and they looked into my details and said there is nothing on your file about getting a new tv. Nothing has been update since you had the mark fixed.

That is it i am not paying anymore! I have phoned up head office and waiting to speak to the bloke at the top and im going to take legal action against them this has been going on since March its now September so i have been treat like crap and is very ****ed off.......................:mad::mad::mad::mad::mad:

Bloomin heck, could you possibly put some paragraphs in and full stops or something... it's really really difficult to read at present!

When you've had all the help you need, make sure you stick around to help others too!

Just think, if everyone left the site after they'd got their help, there might not be anyone left the next time YOU come back needing more assistance!!!!!!!

Hi there

All the problems you have had with BrightHouse are because you agreed to accept "like for like" replacements when you signed for their Optional Service Cover.

You should CANCEL your Optional Service Cover policy at once, and invoke the power of the SUPPLY OF GOODS (IMPLIED TERMS) ACT 1973.

You will find all the information you require in our BrightHouse factsheet HERE

Hope this helps.

Cheers
