    • 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 everyone

 

I've been sent a letter demanding payment in full from iqor (who had the debt passed on from classic card who I've never heard of either!). Prior to that, the debt was held with Blair Oliver & Scott, who I was in written correspondence with (following advice from this forum) and originally the debt was held by the Royal Bank Of Scotland. Are these debts just being sold on to new DCAs every few weeks??!

 

Iqor are going through the pre litigation threats and instructing phone contact to be made. My understanding is that all correspondence should be undertaken in writing. Iqor are also threatening the doorstep call. Now I've just sent a letter to AA Personal Finance as they sent an impersonal card (with no reference to an account or debt) stating that one of their representatives will call at my home on 3.2.09. The letter I have sent to them makes reference to Armstrong v. Sheppard and Short Ltd [1959] 2 Q.B. per Lord Evershed M.R. regarding unlawful entry to private property.

 

Has anyone else on the forum experienced anything similar and could anyone advise whether I'm on the right track?

 

As ever, many thanks

CCA = Credit Card Agreement

 

SB = Statute Barred - refers to a debt that has neither been acknowledged or paid for 6 years .

Hi Werner, IQOR are indeed very easy to get rid of. Frankly, if it's got as far down as them then you shouldn't have any problems.

 

They do respond to email correspondence, so you can tell them to sod off without spending anything. Here's their email address: complaints@iqor.co.uk

 

Regards.

 

Fred

Hello folks - it's reassuring that you've been able to deal these iQor bullies. Having sent the letter to them regarding the legalities of their proposed 3rd Feb doorstep call (which has gone unacknowledged), a letter from them came today 'Notice of Legal Proceedings' demanding payment of the debt in full by 10am on Feb 1st (2 days before the original intended doorstep call??!!). In their letter they have threatened court action (incl. examination of my means), proposed deductions from my salary (they don't know whether I'm salaried or not!) and seizure and sale of my property.

 

Does anyone know where iQor stand legally on any of the above threats?

 

The letter is not signed in any way, there is no iQor named person on the letter for reference, but as ever, there is a number in bold (!) to call and I clearly stated in my letter to iQor that all correspondence was to occur in writing. Should I write to iQor now asking for my original CCA (as I did with BO&S) as iQor have purchased the debt and presumably need to provide proof of the original agreement too - does anyone know if this is the case?

 

Yours gratefully

M

Hi again

 

Just wanted to add something about that that last letter from iQor (demand for payment in full within less than 4 days from receiving the letter!).

 

I can't find an account number anywhere on the letter, just a reference number and also, the proposed pay in full deadline is 10am on a Sunday when their phone lines are closed anyway. Have decided to send the request for original CCA of to them today. Hope this is the right thing to do.

 

Fred - you mentioned about iQor being pretty far down the food chain - could you give me any more info on this - thanks.

 

Thank you all :-)

I would say that this letter isnt meant to do anything other than scare the pants off you. Dont get sucked in.

 

Unfortunately, they have forgotten one thing. To do all they have threatened they do have to get you in court first.

 

The letter in the post below can be amended to suit your purpose.. ;) and should see them off. x BTW, if there is no account number on THEIR letter.. then dont give them one in yours. Use only references that they have.
