    • 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.

Thanks so much everyone.

I am going to acknowledge service with the court next week and totally defend the claim. I would also love to hit them for the ppi and unlawful charges.

 

So any help you can provide would be most grateful

jboo

 

ill give some teasers to begin with

 

the default notice is crap to beging with

 

all you will be liable for are any arears up to the date of the notice , thats it, kiss the rest goodby.

 

i believe they have charged interest on the acceptance fee before the total charge for credit

 

thats to be confirmed

 

thats a bad copy,

what i would like you to do is write out the figures and a plus b plus c etc in the correct colums and ammounts

 

its the bit that says ammount of credit and total ammount of loan and figures

 

checking on something as yours is an old agreement

 

you need two colums, one for the finance and one for the micky mouse insurance, also i believe you need to sign accepting the insurance products,

thats two signatures

 

thats to be confirmed as the rules might have changed

 

there are no list of charges on the agreement

 

no total ammount payable

 

do you still have any policy docs for those insurance products or did you infact get any

 

medicare

 

they saw you comming

 

that lots just off the top of my head

 

like i said

 

ill get on with this over the weekend

 

i just realised its dlc

 

they were not happy with me when i pointed out those things on my agreement.

 

they know full well these agreements are crap, thats why they are trying to get a judgement by default or as quick as possible

this claim is going noware

 

you need to send the sols a cpr request for specific info

 

ill post it later for you

 

you can smile now

 

dlc have yet another lemon and they are not a major player in the dca stakes:D

Have a read of this post where the intricate details of Default Notices are dissected by Banker_Rhymes_With

In your case, Welcome Finance did not provide you with the required 14 days to remedy the breach as required by section 88, Consumer Credit Act 1974

hi postggj

 

The only other document I have is called insurance suitability which I will scan later. I do not have any insurance policies, come to think of it there was probably no paperwork sent to me after the loan was taken out. When I CCA'd them all I got was the Credit Agreement, Application Form and the insurance suitability form which I signed.

 

In your earlier post you asked me to display the figures.

These are:

 

Amount used to settle existing loan £ 1196.83 (a)

Amount of new cash advanced £ 803.17 (b)

Medicare 24 £ 150.00 ©

 

(Optional) Payment Protection £ 687.41 (h)

Amount of Credit £ 2837.41 (i)

Acceptance Fee £ 75.00 (j)

Total Amount of loan £ 2912.41 (k)

Details of breach of agreement and action required to remedy, or pay compensation for, the breach

3

A specification of:--

 

(a) the provision of the agreement alleged to have been breached; and

 

(b) the nature of the alleged breach of the agreement, specifying clearly the matters complained of; and either

 

© if the breach is capable of remedy, what action is required to remedy it and the date, being a date [not less than fourteen days] after the date of service of the notice, before which that action is to be taken; or

 

(d) if the breach is not capable of remedy, the sum (if any) required to be paid as compensation for the breach and the date, being a date [not less than fourteen days] after the date of service of the notice, before which it is to be paid.

 

I think that is pretty conclusive that the Regs require a date not the words "fourteen days"

Hi everyone,

 

I'm going to acknowledge service with Northampton County Court tomorrow stating that I am going to defend the claim, and my defence will be produced later.

 

In the meantime I am going to write to their solicitors Young and Pearce for all information held on me from Welcome Finance under the civil procedure rules. Can anybody reccommend a suitable template letter for me to send to the solicitors.

 

I will let you all know of any further developments.

 

Many thanks jb000

Starting to get worried now, 28 days are up on the 9th June, still have'nt heard anything about the CPR 31.14 request from Young and Pearce solicitors. When would be time to put in the 'embarrased defence' and how would I go about it.

 

Many thanks

The default letter was blank.

 

 

So the DN came in the post with no Letter head or registered office details on it ??

JB, what was the date on your claim form. You said you received it on the 14th May.

 

You get 5 days from the date of issue then 14 days to acknowledge then a further 14 days to submit your defence, either in full or embarrassed.

 

I make 9th June = 26 days since you have RECEIVED the docs

 

If you havent received any documents from the solicitors then you are going to have to go with an embarrassed defence. Do make sure you get it on time (perhaps a day or 2 before the due date) to avoid getting a judgement by default.

 

BTW, exactly what did the POC say :)

Hi

 

Claim form was dated 12th May, CPR Request 18 May

 

Sent off Embarressed Defence today by recorded delivery, so may have jumped the gun slightly, but wanted to get things in well before time because I know Welcome Finance only too well I would not put past them doing a mucky trick.

 

POC only stated that (allegedly) I owe them £XXXX and they are seeking to recover.
