    • 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.

When i had the same kind of response in the past what i have said is:

 

Dear Sir,

Further to your recent correspondence dated (**). I am afraid i am unable to supply you with any further information regarding my identity to enable my legal request for information to be fulfilled than has already been supplied previously.

 

The fact that you have been writing to the above address and to me by name requesting payment towards the above account has confirmed to me that you already have the correct details. This address and the occupier has been satisfactory to you in past communications therefore you have until the 19 Jan 2009 to supply me with the information i am entitled to otherwise i shall make a formal complaint to the Information Commissioners Office without further notice"

 

Amend as needed and if they don't comply the make then complaint to the Information Commissioners Office:

If you are not being chassed for the debt then it is less urgent although personally i would be aggrieved to be asked to visit the Branch (after i had been writing to them and they know my details and address etc) but if he is happy to do that then it's fine I'm sure. (If it's easy for you to do. If it's at all difficult or inconvenient then they will just have to lump it.)

 

A creditor does has a duty to take reasonable steps to ensure the person they are giving the data to is the right person but be aware that they may be trying to get him in person for some other reason (although i can't think what, maybe they just want to give him a loan eh!) and you are under no obligation to play it there way if you don't want to. They cause any problems or start asking dumb questions then walk.

 

Others may have some thoughts on this ....

 

I'm very suspicious by nature (probably overly so these days). :)

..I could say we didn't receive it..

 

I'd stick to the truth as much as possible. You don't want to get caught up in their games. If you are ever asked by the I.C.O or creditor about the matter then simply state you didn't feel it was needed (after they have been writing to you by name) and it was inconvenient for you to do visit their Branch. Enough said really.

 

As you say, wait for the time limit to expire then report 'em ;)

I would not sign anything (red or otherwise) as a red signature will look black once it's been photocopied. Digital signatures only, which are certainly adequate.

Any future agreement that could turn up bearing a digital signature would be proof to you that it wasn't what you physically signed.

I mean that creditors are deceitful, dishonest, underhand and not trustworthy. They don't follow the law or the rules so they look at ways to get around the law.

 

If they don't have a proper agreement then they can 'make' one up using your signature and Photoshop.

 

Send me your real signature in purple, orange and yellow ink and i could send you back a loan agreement, bearing your black and white signature showing you owe me £17 million (assuming i had your address.) :)

Would take ten minutes.

The LBA could be used as a scare tactic to give them a nudge. Personally i am of the mind these days that if you send an LBA you must follow through with the threat should they not comply/ignore it.

 

Worth trying though as they could well cough up. :)

Haven't had much experience with the ICO but it's true that i wouldn't put much store in them actually doing anything for you. You should certainly complaint (make as many complaints about different lenders actions as you like) but it should be seen as a formality and to put a little bit more 'pressure' on the lenders and you never know, you may get a fair result from it.

At the end of the day, regulatory bodies don't have your best interests at heart, so it's up to you to get a result you want.

 

Have you looked at the Civil Procedure Rules route (Pre Court Action.)
