    • 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.

Hy everyone ,i'm new to this site and i need your help and informations.

I will try to explain my situation as accurate as possible:

I'm living in UK for 7 years now but i want to go back to my country. I have accumulateted some debts(aprox 20-25k) and i'm with a debt management company at the moment.my wife also has about 15k debt.

I just want to get rid of the stress and go back but i can't just leave everything like this(the debt)as the creditors may follow me abroad.

What options do i have???Thank you!

Hi and welcome to CAG.

 

Which country are you moving back to and when roughly are you considering moving back? Are you moving back permanently?

HAVE YOU BEEN TREATED UNFAIRLY BY CREDITORS OR DCA's?

 

BEWARE OF CLAIMS MANAGEMENT COMPANIES OFFERING TO WRITE OFF YOUR DEBTS.

Payplan are one of the good ones -if your wife is not already with them you may want to advise her to discuss her situation with them also, or with the CCCS.

 

As to your creditors following you abroad, yes they more than likely will -depending on who your debts are with, when the debts are from & the type of debts.

 

If you are wanting to clear the debt before you go, then that may be very difficult, however, I'm sure there would be no problem in continuing with Payplan after you move are wanting to continue to clear your debt.

 

If that is the case then I would speak to Payplan to let them know that you are moving & they will advise your creditors who will be more agreeable if you let them know you are moving than them having to find out the hard way.

if i will do that then all creditors will have to accept a lower repayment rate as the wages back home are lower.is there a minimum i have to pay or they will take the level of wages from back home in consideration?

Also if we agree for an amount , will i pay that amount for the rest of my working period(until retirement)or there is a set time limit?

also is banckrupcy an option considering that i'm not comming back?do i have to justify every penny to the court if i do that? i have a house home inherited from my grandparents,if i go bankrupt do they have acces to assets abroad?sorry for all these questions!

Thanks for your reply!

You will probably need to do a new income & expenditure letter to show that you need to reduce payments due to reduction in income. Payplan will go through that with you. There is no set time limit to pay back by, but it can be re-evaluated at any time.

 

Bankruptcy is an option that you can consider, but you will need to weigh up if this is an option that you want to persue as it may affect things for you in the future. You also have to pay to be declared bankrupt -around £200 last time I heard but I wouldn't be suprised if this had increased. I would discuss this with both Payplan & the citizens advice bureau to see if this is something that would be a possible option for you.

 

As to the house you inherited, I'm really not sure 100% so can't help you with that! Hopefully someone else on here can give you some info!
