    • 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.

Their solicitor claimed the terms and conditions were on the back of the application. I quickly informed the judge that this was not the case as they were current t&cs. However, the judge stated that the original terms and conditions from 1996 would have been sent with the application.

 

Furthermore, the Judge dropped a huge clanger, she read the declaration out which confirmed that the debtor had agreed to the Yorkshire Bank conditions of use set out overleaf. However, the conditions of use

DO NOT contain any prescribed terms and in any event the terms would have been contained in a seperate document as it was admitted nothing was on the back of the application.

paulwilton -you have my support as well. You have 28 days to apply for this nonsense to be setaside on the grounds that the judgement is legally flawed. Go get em.

 

I believe the time limit is 14 days.

 

I have spoken with a lawyer and hope to hear something shortly.

I think I would also complain about the judge not knowing the case law.. definately appeal and ask for a set aside, and maybe you should state that it is and always has been your intention to continue to pay what you legally owe and you have been paying this company back over the years, I would add a list of all the payments you have made against this debt and use it as the first schedule document in your appeal.

It may be an idea to work out how much of the principal you have paid.

 

On each statement subtract the amount of your payment from you actually spent (not including the interest and charges added)

 

In equity, they are entitled to it back, but of course we all know that you pay this off every month. The largest part of the alleged "credit balance" will be interest and charges which they havent been able to show that you ever agreed to pay, nor that the charges and interest levied thereon were lawful.

 

You know this already, of course but it may be useful to show that you did indeed pay back what you borrowed, the apparantly outstanding amount is made up of:

 

1) interest levied which there is no legal obligation for you to pay (no CCA)

 

and

 

2) unenforceable charges and interest unlawfully levied thereon.

 

Of course you and I and they are well aware of this, but the judge may be unaware that you have repaid every penny you actually borrowed.

Was she on drugs or does she need a massive dose of HRT?

 

The solicitor even admitted that Yorkshire Bank had lied regarding the conditions being on the back of the application....Discraceful.

Unbelievable.......Was the Judges name " MRS ROBINSON" by any chance!!!:mad:

 

Time for appealing is 21 days.......but even then you can still make an appeal "out of time" if you are deemed to have a STRONG sound case...an application to set aside is just as good as an actual appeal to the High Court.

What I'd like to know is if there is any comeback on these judges after their idiot decisions are overturned? And I can't see how it could ever be upheld on appeal, given that there is case law from the House of Lords, as well as the CCA 1974 being statute law. I sincerely hope that when cases are overturned on appeal, the original judge does at least get told, in the hope that they may learn.

Subbing amd best of luck on your next move Paul. That was a disgustubg outcome and totally unjustified.

 

It is particularly galling when a judge actually ignores the legal facts, shoes a bias to one party and bases a judgement on nonsense...just makes a mockery :mad:

This was a classic example of Judges getting involved in the politics of a case!!! It is imperitive that judges always remainimpartial and make decision based on the LAW and not what their moral or political viewpoints are!!

 

Shame on this Judge!! Really I feel that these Judges should be quite severely punished - if not removed completely!! Having had binding precedent from the House of Lords brought to their attention, to just ignore it is not only unnacceptible, but it goes against the entire fabric and working of the judiciary!!

 

And then for the stuck up so and so to refuse leave to appeal on the grounds of little chance of success............. WELL THE HOUSE OF LORDS DIDN'T THINK THEIR WAS LITTLE CHANCE OF SUCCESS IN WILSON, DID THEY JUDGEY!!!!!!!!

 

^^ Rant over, but it really does make me angry!!!!! :mad:

 

Best of luck on your appeal mate!!! :)

I am rarely around these parts any more. I only stop by when something has come to my attention that has sufficiently annoyed me so as to persuade me to awake from my nap and put in my two pence.

Unfortunately the Defendant had a mental breakdown whilst an appeal was being arranged.
