    • 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 sf99,

 

Congratulations and well done.

 

Citb sent me the good news which I was very pleased to read.

 

I'm sure Restons will not be proceeding further now they've had a biff on the nose from the Judge about their procedures.

 

I do hope you'll have a relaxing evening and enjoy a cheeky toast to you, your family and your barrister.

Hi Snoops

yes be getting out some wine tonight! :DThanks to you to for encouraging me in my fight against MBNA:)

Well done!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Hi Welshmam

Thanks for your congratulations!Thanks also for your moral support and being there for me since MBNA battle turning legal! plus your kind pms!:)i You helped keep me sane and hope things go well in your battles too,It must have been a shock for Restons when they got me to AQ stage thinking that as a LIP not being legally trained and not having a grand job just being an ordinary shop assistant and giving no indication up to then that i would be involving soliciters they were proabably rubbing their hands together thinking i would be easy prey and get their hands easily on our house as i am sure they want to get their grubby mits on it!and one of the reason they decided to go for me:mad:well they not going to get their hands on our hosue without a fight! They are acting like bullies picking on people who they perceive to be weaker and easier prey!i wonder if the Judge realised that too!

Great news sunflower,really pleased for you and one in the eye for restons.

Keep us upto date with progress.

 

Got me thinking how far restons and optima etc would actually push a case if they knew they weren't being faced with a lip and actually had to deal with a trained barrister.

Hi Blueotter !

Thanks for your moral support too,It is great we all standing up to these bullies together!:)

I wouldn't call you that, (within slapping distance):eek::eek::eek:

 

Seems to me the arrogance of Restons is such they think they can walk on water.

 

Really is excellent when they get a 'bootie':lol::lol::lol:
