    • 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.

Your help would be much appreciated Capquest through HL Legal issued a court summons against me for a personal loan with HSBC. I have never had a personal loan with HSBC!

 

For 3 months Capquest and HL Legal ignored all my correspodence. As you can imagine my wife and I were going out of our minds with worry and had many a sleepless night....

 

After I threatend legal action HL Legal wrote back confirming that the debt did not belong to me and a mistake had been made. They have offered £100 in compensation which we feel is derisory.

 

The summons was for £600 we feel they should compensate us for this amount (they havn't even apologised) if they are willing to send out Court Summons incorrectly for this amount they should be prepared to compensate for this amount also?

 

Do you feel this is reasonable? I am new to all this so would appreciate some help. There seems to be a lot of intelligent advice on here... Thank You!!

Hi Furry when was the summons issued?

Have you AoS ( Acknowleged service) or had the claimant discontinue?

Hi Andy. thanks for response. A summons was issued which I defended on the basis that the debt was not mine....heard nothing for months despite writing to capquest/HL

 

I then wrote to the court who confirmed that I could pay to have the case struck out...before doing this I wrote to Capquest/HL threatening legal action.

 

They have written back saying "they cannot locate any agreement between me and HSBC and will be taking a practical view and not proceeding" offering me £100..

 

I have spent hours on this matter and the stress we have encountered has been unbelievable as we always pay everything on time...

 

We cant believe that a firm of Solicitors would issue a summons without any proof of a debt!!

I then wrote to the court who confirmed that I could pay to have the case struck out...before doing this I wrote to Capquest/HL threatening legal action.Did you submit a AN stating same?What was the response?

 

They have written back saying "they cannot locate any agreement between me and HSBC and will be taking a practical view and not proceeding" offering me £100..Well its should cover your Costs involved and a little somthing along with an apology would be nice

 

I have spent hours on this matter and the stress we have encountered has been unbelievable as we always pay everything on time... Well you can issue a counterclaim with the costs and time involved dealing with this nonsence but do you really need the aggrovation!
