    • I understand that you have had difficulty messaging me the information that I asked for. However, I asked a number of questions above which need to be answered on the open forum and you haven't responded to those. If you want to get some idea of possible solutions or approaches to this issue then you will need to give us the details that we ask for
    • Also, how much did the warranty cost you? Follow our link to see what we have to say about extended warranties. You should cancel the warranty immediately. You should send a separate letter referring specifically to the warranty and cancel it. I think you have 14 days to cancel the warranty and so you are just within time if you do it straightaway. Don't hang around
    • As advised by my site team colleague above, you need to send the letters of rejection as quickly as possible. I would suggest that you post the letter here for us to have a look at. If you have sent a letter already then let us see what you have sent. You seem to have posted up part of a report which you received. Please could we see the whole report. Upload it in PDF format. I'm not quite clear who it is produce this report. Was it somebody connected with Big Motoring World or was it from an independent inspector. Did it cost you anything? I'm aware that you have coming from Facebook and the point has been already made there that although the assertion of your right to reject it is an important step, the big problem will be getting Big Motoring World to act correctly and to accept the rejection and to refund you. How far are you away from the dealer. You bought the car 13 days ago. How many days have you actually had use of it? What date did you take it into the garage where they discovered the faults? You have told us that some of the purchase price was financed. Who provided the finance? I think my site team colleague above has asked you this question and you need to tell us.  
    • Politicians not being totally honest applies to 99% of them these days. Whoever wins the election will have to find money to pay for all of works needed to repair the damage done during the last 16 years. I say 16 years, as that is when the Banking crash made a huge dent in the UK economy. The Tories have managed a gradually declining country. At least Labour understand they need to fix Britain. The Tories are more willing to accept a broken NHS etc.

    • 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.

Interesting... "can confirm that the reverse of this agreement contained the prescribed terms required under the CCA" but not god enough. Their word is useless to you.

 

Don't worry, they always mention collection activities. You are no where near Bailiffs. You would have to go to Court first, fail to pay if a Judge ordered. Just be aware that debt collectors sometimes call any visit (which is highly unlikely to materialise) a 'pre bailiff visit'. This is a LIE. There is no such thing!

 

Besides, you need to have been sent a valid Default notice before they can take you to Court. (Copy of Default should be included when you SAR) apart from the issues of their compliance to your request for the agreement which could be used to halt any potential Court Action.

 

Here's a thing, before I have a real go at them: is it permissible for the PTs to be on the reverse of the signator document? I need to be sure, in case they're hiding something from me. I don't think so, because they sent the terms in a separate document.

 

Wonder why they won't show me the reverse? Why are they stalling?

Update.

 

Bothe DCA and the bank have now - after a few months of glorious silnce - started calling the house again. I have warned them right away about harassment and what I intend to do about it.

 

I also need some clarification about a loan argreement, as opposed to a credit card one: would their signatory documents both be in the same format, ie, will the loan doc have to have PTs on it as well, as I would imagine? Just need that cleared up.

They would still have to have PT although on a cc they can say something like we will determine the credit limit, on your loan agreement it should have all the figures relevant to your particular case i.e. loan amount, charge for credit, etc. there's a link on here somewhere that details all the PT that each agreement should bear. :)

Ok,

 

They have fudged me on the cards but I think that, finally, they have supplied the correct agreement with PTs for the loan. Can you guys confirm this, please, by having a look here Scans :: Appform5 picture by kakkadoo - Photobucket

 

The Terms and Conditions appear to be on the reverse, but I think, as far as I understand it, the PTs are on that document.

as long as you have blanked out the figures etc then yes it looks enforceable to me

Yes, I did.

 

I will start paying them again, but now both the bank and DCA - which was out of the loop whilst the bank gor re-involved - are now sending Final Demands threatening 'action' if arraesr not paid within seven days. Strangely, their letters took nearly that long to arrive here. At no time have they asked me, since supplying these correct documents, to start paying again; only the DCA has aksed, with the threatening final demand.

 

Incidentally, the bank were adding interest when the account was condisered in dispute. Isn't that illegal?

It's amazing, the amount of BS they throw at you and expect to swallow.

 

My bank has written to me, saying that they had no notification from the DCA that one of the accounts was indispute. They state that the DCA have no record of my letter notifying them of the account being induspute after going beyond the 12+2 days after they were CCAd. How interesting! I have kept a copy of the recorded delivery slip and have today written to the bank with the time and the date the DCA signed for the letter!

 

Another example of a DCA lying and hiding the existence of documents! Send EVERYTHING recorded, Caggers!!

Ida,

 

yeh, the bank has been warned about it being illegal to claim whilst in dispute. This is what they are up to, now: denying that their lapdog DCA has ever received the 'in dispute' letter. But I can prove otherwise, to a degree, because I have today sent the bank scans the proof of posting receipts and demanding that the call the Post office automated tracking service to find out when the DCA actually received the letter!

 

Funny, though, how they are both rocking the boat on an account that I have accepted as being enforceable!! It's great, as i have FINALLY gotten a letter form the bank saying the DCA never got the dispute letter!

 

Rock and Effing Roll! :-x My lawyer is now involved; watch this space.

Oh, BTW: the banks and the DCA are VERY quiet over the credit cards that are in dispute! Silence when they know they are caught out; threats and letters akimbo when they know they can collect their pound of flesh.

 

Know thy enemy; I do.

I've just found out that section 77(6) does not exist!! The subsection (6) instrument is only applicable under section 78!! The relevant subsection under section 77 is subsection four!!

 

HAve had to dodge the bank with a typo on that one! Watch out for this!

Update.

 

Ladies and Gentlemen, fellow Caggers. Today, I welcome into my life the wonderful Moorcroft, whom it appears have taken over one of my accounts where Blair, Oliver & Scott failed miserably. I must admit they came on very strong, with one section of their threats being the 'registration of an inhibition against any heritable proerty that you may own..'

 

How evil is that?

 

Anyway, what I'm puzzled about is this: if Blair, Oliver & Scott just yapped away and couldn't do anything, why has HBoS now instructed another, different DCA? Also, in a recent letter, the bank witter on again about not having to provide the signed document and that they will do so in court. Why change DCAs, then?

 

I'm actually getting bored with this to-ing and fro-ing with them all. I warned the bank today about suddenly supplying signed agreements at court, for I'd want to check their authenticity. I don't trust them one bit. I just don't see how they think they'll benefit by employing another lapdog.

One idea is that the bank have instructed another DCA to restart the CCA crap all over again but I'm not having it. What I will watch out for, though, is the possibility of Moorcroft marking my CF. I guess I'd better have a look at the CF, anyway, as I'm sure Blair, Oliver & Scott may have been at it as well.

this just proves even more that they do not want to go the court route and a quick bemused letter to moorcrfot will see them off

After a week's blissful silence, my Fife chums rang up again. I spoke briefly and polietly and told them if they had anything to comment on they were to write out to me "NO!", came the raised voice from the other end. I then put the phone down.

 

I'm so annoyed that I've forgotten his name for here was proof of a DCA monkey refusing to write out!

 

However, now that I've started paying the two enforecable loan debts, I have the feeling that the bank and the DCA are going to start hassling me to increase the payments. The bank have admitted such in a recent letter which states that I should contact the DCA do 'discuss a mutually beneficial way forward'.

 

When dealing with a bank or a DCA, nothing can be mutually beneficial!

 

So, with regard to these enforceable accounts, can the DCa, or bank, drag me to court to get me to pay more towards them?

if they did take you to court, you would apply for a time to pay order and this would you be filling in an income and exp sheet and saying how much you can afford. the judge wouldnlt make you pay anymore than you can afford.

 

if you stick to your payment proposal then theres not much they can do

Thanks, Ida.

 

They are already in posession of an updated income and expenditure sheet and the instalments have been brought up to date after I withheld payment to them during the CCA fiasco but I know they are going to start trying to get me to up the instalment amount, just like they used to.

 

I am heart sick of them, really, and I would not put it past them to drag this particluar account to court, even when it's getting paid. My concern would be if the beak ruled that I had to pay the whole lot off! Possibility?
