    • 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.

Els...I think we need a "stamia" thread

but then again it takes so much courage and stamian for "all of us" it's such an acheivement for "all" posters on here..

To take on Big establishements like Banks !

I mean this time last year did any of us ever think we'd have a chance to get back what is rightfully ours?

We just went round in circles, most of us chasing our tails and some of us only just holding our head's above the breadline....

But to be honest with you, without sounding sychophantic....it's this site who's given everyone the guts to give it a go..I'd truly have given up with out you lot !

Some people may have claimed anyway and some people may be in a better position to go it alone, but let's face it a problem shared is a problem halved..

And just knowing that I could come in here and get some support when things got tough ( through the claim and any time with bailiffs etc....) was priceless for me personally.

So for what ever reason people use this site, I for one am so glad you're here.

Hello,

I have just read about your long journey, it has given me some hope. I have gone through all the letter stages and today posted a claim with monely claim online. I am quite nervous to be truthfull, as this is not for me, but a friend of mine who is on her own with 5 kids and no computer and the bank (lloyds) has been less than helpful for the last 6 years.

 

I was hoping she might get her money back for christmas, but looking at your list of dates that does look very doubtful.

 

I will keep you informed if your interested. x

hya Fairwinds. good on you for helping out your friend.

It is tough, I won't lie but with all the help you can get on here, it's all worth it believe me.

Timing varies and some people have been lucky and got earlier settlements, so don't be put off.

You just have to follow the time line for allowing them to receive all docs from yourself and the court and fi you've read the FAQ and other threads on here, then you can pick up the answers to any questions you might have.

Don't despair, start a thread re your friend's claim and everyone will follow you and help out where they can.

Tell her to keep her chin up, I felt like giving up a few times and missed birthdays and all through the school holidays but I knew that before long " my day would come" and here it is.....

 

good luck

Freebirdxxx

WOW! At last......

 

CONGRATULATIONS!!!

 

I'm really pleased for you FB, well done:). An epic journey but you stuck at it and got there in the end, and especially well done for insisting on an unconditional settlement. This thread will be an inspiration to a lot of people.

Really don't know what to say. Some threads you read and even though you don't know the person involved you feel emotional (i'm 25/M). You've been through it with Lloyds FB, but you got there in the end.

 

Well done matey and a excellent crimbo to you and your family!
