    • 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.

Christmas is nearly upon us so I want to wish everyone All the Best and everything you wish for yourselves.

I'd love to buy you all a drink, but I'll have to content myself with raising a glass and toasting you all!!;):D

 

There's a lot of you so it might take me a while.......;)

They may need some Christmas cheers

 

I echo that sentiment, Matty.

I wish all at Lyons Davidson, and Plymouth College of Art a very merry Christmas.:D

Whew, after 4 days, I finally reached the end :D

 

I'd just like to say that I've been an avid forum user for 11 years, and I'm on the site team at a couple of places, and I have never in all that time seen such a shining example of the power of a forum to help the underdog as this thread. Everyone who has given so freely of their time to help should be very proud of themselves.

 

I wish I knew more about legal stuff to be able to help, regrettably I'm primarily a computer wiz, and am still feeling my way around CAG a bit. But I'll be keeping close eye on this thread now that I've found it, both to see if I can make any suggestions, and because I can't wait to find out how it all ends :D

 

If there's one thing I cannot stand, it's people who would pick on the defenceless, whether it's animals, children, or some poor sod being hounded through the courts like this. I'm particularly looking forward to certain people getting their comeuppance.

The most recent substantial development was this on 17th of November

 

An order has now arrived from the court following the applications hearing last week.

This is what it says:-

Upon hearing counsel for the claimant and the defendant in person, it is ordered by consent, that

1a) The hearing listed for 17th November 2009, be vacated.

1b) The defendant is permitted to rely on the amended defence and counterclaim filed on 6th August 2009.

2) The defendant's application relating to striking out and the police caution to be listed on the first open date, after 6 weeks, namely on 9th February 2010 at 11am.

So there we are, another delay.:)

Since then Patma has been asking for a video expert to look at some footage for her

9th of february, that's what I was looking for, thanks Bedlington, couldn't remember if it was January or February. Have a rep on me. (oooh look at that, you get 2 blobs now! LOL)

 

Can't think of any video expert, sorry. Maybe find a forum of photo and video nuts and ask there?

Wonder if she'll have vacated before the siht hits the fan?

 

One of the requirements that a prospective candidate for this job must have is...

 

''As Chief Executive the person appointed must clearly have good financial management skills and understanding.''

 

They've noticed that the previous encumberant didn't have these attributes then!
