    • 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.

Hi I am at the same stage as you trying to claim my hubbys charges back from the Abbey as I am with mine from Hailfax.

the Haliax were pretty good at sending statements & I've now had a meesly offer from them & about to fill in the moneyclaim

However we haven't got passed 1st base with the Abbey as we haven't had all the statements from them

My point is that most of our charges were in the first few years of the 6 year timescale (when our 4 kids were still at home!) & we don't have as many on the statements we have received so if we estimate them from these statements we wont be claiming enough

also I am getting very confused as to what we actually do after the 7 days letter has been sent who do we complain to for non compliance do we send a letter to court????

hopefully these questions & more will be answered for the very numb of scull like me

many thanks for listening & being very patient x

I have just recieved this letter now :(. Is this a new approach? Have they found a way round paying up full amount?

 

Any ideas or anyone else recieved this one?

 

Thank you for your letter dated 10 September, about the bank charges you have incurred in the past six years. I am sorry you feel these are unlawful.

Having carried out a full investigation, i can assure you the charges are not unlawful and do not contravene the Unfair Terms in Consumer Contracts Regulations.

Therefore, I cannot agree to refund all of them. However, as a gesture of goodwill, I am happy to cancel charges totalling £1,058.00.

 

The regulations say that we must explain our charges in plain language and that we have to act in good faith, which, according to the Office of Fair Trading, means dealing fairly and openly with customers.

 

I therefore reviewed the literature and information you recieved when you opened your account, including the terms and conditions. This explains that charges will be applied if you do not keep to the terms of the account. Because of this, i believe we have been fair and open in telling you about them. The charges were correct, because you did not have enough money in your account to cover the payments requested from it. When i looked at the history for your account i found that, unfortunately, this was not the first time this has happened.

 

I am confident that i have been fair and have taken into account all the points you made in your letter, but if you have any additional points that you would like to discuss with me, please call me on 0845 600 6045. I have enclosed a leaflet about the Financial Ombudsman Service, in case you are not happy with my investigation or decision. If so, you should contact them within six months of the date of this letter, enclosing a copy of it, as they would need this for their investigation.

 

I hope we can work together to help you avoid charges in future. Little things can help, like checking you account balance as often as possible and looking at the dates of direct debits to make sure they are taken shortly after money is paid in. In addition, we might be able to help by providing an increased overdraft facility to give you more flexibility. This could help to keep your costs down, as there are no charges unless you exceed your overdraft limit. So, if you would like to talk to someone about the options available, please call our Telephone Banking Centre on 08459 724 724. Alternatively, if you think you might need longer-term help to manage your bank account, please call 0845 603 9035 and we'll be happy to help.

 

Yours sincerely

Scott Sullivan

There are a lot of things you could write in response to this but, unless you want a penfriend, my advice would be simply to issue a claim at the expiration of the deadline you mentioned in your LBA.

 

If you sent this as you indicated on 27th September, then file your claim no earlier than Friday 13th of October, unlucky for some and in this particular instance for Abbey.

I have had charges refunded and I indicated this on my schedule of charges spreadsheet, in your case, as you have received a part payment I would enter it as a figure on your schedule of charges and reduce your claim by that amount.

Ok court is in Action :)

Just got letter saying The Defendant filled an Acknowledgement of Service on 09 November 2006.

They indicated that they intend to defend all of the claim.

 

Is this normal?

Yes, perfectly normal. You will now receive a copy of their defence shortly. Keep reading and use the experience of others here who have done this already.

 

It does become clearer!

Puffa, look here for excellent information on how to fill one of these out.

 

And no, you do not have any expert reports.

It is not necessary to ask for disclosure and indeed disclosure is not usually part of a claim on the small claims track in any case. Keep doing what you are doing, things are progressing as they should.
