    • 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 Alan,

 

Not got any experience with LILA but do with bankruptcy.

 

they won't ask how and why but you would need to declare everyone, even the ones thats over 5 years cause then they cannot demand any payment etc.

 

 

just try and gather any papwork you have, when i went Bk the trustee came and seen me at my home and he was very helpful and proded me along even when calauting my outgoings ;) minding me that i smoked etc and need monies for things like that.

 

if by any chance you do forget any creditor your BK is placed in the edinburgh gazette inviting creditor to contact the trustee and if you ask your trustee about this i am sure mine said just elt us know if anyone contacts you or just tell them you BK ref no etc.

even if you know you r a due a company money but donlt have any corress just write it down as well and apporx amount etc

 

this is what you will be filling in so you can have a nosey at it:

you wonlt get in trouble, I promise what the mean is a lot of people use BK but maybe do not include ticky loans from provident or greenwoods and keep them up so they can still get more etc etc and obviously you delaring what income you have.

 

re the bank account: unfortunatley some banks are unhelpful during BK.

 

At the time of my BK i bank with TSB and my waged went into it paid my dd's and was not due TSB a penny. But every payday they wouldnlt let me use my cashcard and had to go into a particular branch to withdraw funds which when working fulltime was difficult.

 

I spoke to some at BOS, who incendently were one of my creditors, and they opened an account for me with a visa electron ( I used ebay and bought online so needed some type of debit card) and had great pleasue going into the TSB branch and closing my account and the reason for it. Then relacimed the 3 bank charges with them and they made a mistake nad paid me 6 :D.

 

SO just beware and when you file the BK and make an appointment with someone at the bank you bank with and ask them if them if your banking with them would be affected.

 

anyhoo, as on a thrd i hvae just posted, when you file your BK and it goes through, think it of as a new start. It was great for me. Couldnlt get credit so anything i needed or wanted we had to save and are not due anyome anything , have no credit at all and donlt want it. Update to date with all utilitied and have everything we need with a litlle abit more. Made up appreciate money and everyhthing else and more and very happy and content ( second time tonight i have said similar things :eek: )

 

 

Don't worry there will be no lecture about bad spending.

 

Your new life starts here

I don't know how long it takes to get any paperwork through but the postal strikes are ongoing and sme peopkle havenlt had mail for over 4 weeks. the are striking at different parts of the country each day so some people arenlt affected at all but most are delayed. that could be one reason.

 

it was different in my day ;) the trustess actually came to my home and went over everyting and he was very nice. didn't as questions like how this happened but was very helpful with my outgoings. he mde sure that everything was accounted for like any vet bills that may arise

 

bu anyhoo, if the have confirmed it went through that's the main part confirmed.

 

 

do they not have an email address you can use for contact?
