    • 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.

I don't suppose this is much help but I have a Goldfish account that is currently in dispute (although not by Cabot)

 

Goldfish sent me a default notice that did not give a date for me to make good the arrears but instead referred to a second piece of paper as the date it was sent....it is an invalid default notice...which in itself may not be too much of a problem as they can simply issue another one.

 

However, they also issued me with a termination notice....this notice in effect closed the account and allows them only to be able to claim the amount of the arrears..

 

Following on from that, I receive at a point in the future a notice of assignment from Goldfish to a DCA....however, Goldfish were sold prior to the assignment notice...some 6 months before the assignment notice in fact....and yet the dca stated that they had been assigned it from Goldfish....

 

Further to that the amount owed has increased by 2k since I've been paying the DCA and yet I have a letter from the dca that no interest would be charged on the account....

 

None of the above became relevant until I joined this website forum, armed with my new found confidence I did some research and along the way the above is what I found was a problem.

 

I have sent a cca request to the DCA and they haven't responded and it's been 2 months since..

 

None of this may be relevant to you but this is how Goldfish ended my account with them. I currently consider that the DCA owe me money, I've paid more than what the arrears in the faulty default notice and I do not consider the DCA to have acted lawfully when collecting money from me. I awaiting confirmation from a solicitor as to above circumstances and once I have that and if it is consistent with my own feelings/findings then I will pursue the DCA at any/all levels that I can.

 

So be sure to check the specifics of your Credit agreement, it's default notice and termination and any assignments that may have been made by Cabot etc....you may turn something up...
