    • If that was the reason then that is good news. The whole reason that being able to charge £100 for breaching private car park rules is because the law Lords decided in a celebrated case that the rogues had a legitimate interest in keeping their car park spaces available for all motorists . {parking Eye v Beavis]. However when the business is closed then there is no legitimate interest in keeping spaces free so to charge £100 is a penalty. As such any Court would automatically throw out the case when the penalty charge is accepted.

    • 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.

OH pestering me to take out more life insurance. This was after we'd discussed what to watch on TV tonight, when I realised that the only things we actually watch together are those shows which focus on spouses that kill eachother! Anyone else see a pattern here..........?

Well I wanted to swear yesterday really but have only been able to post it now. There was an underground electrical fire at about 5pm yesterday, and 90% of the area had no electricity until during the night. Very awkward when you have to feed your kids and get their clothes ready for school. That's the second time that has happened in as many years.

 

I hope all them Sirloin steaks are ok in the freezer.:oops:

 

 

If all else fails, kick them where it hurts and SOD'EM;)

The horrible, horrible, useless, inadequate dementia care in the area I live in. Watching useless Doctors being compensated for by brilliant Nurses. Very nearly having the lift I got from the brilliant Nurses (and if Doctors get a capital letter, I'll be damned if the Nurses don't BTW) ruined by a health care assistant who is quite clearly in the wrong profession.

 

It's just as well I've got a sense of humour, let's put it that way.

Please don't take this the wrong way; it's not meant to be... Myself; am looking at a mid case scenario that I'm facing a nursing home! I'm 43!!! Unfortunately, when I became severely physically ill I didn't tick all the right boxes. No worries thought I... Not so said they (social services). Two years down the line I'm still 'fighting' for everything. My home, care, benefits. I paid my taxes, NI, everything... Naively thinking I'd done the right thing. Where am I now? Facing an almost worse than death sentence because I suffered an hypoxic brain injury almost two years ago. I have no idea how long I have to be 'compus mentus'. A week, a year, a decade?

WARNING...massive rant not directed at anyone in particular ahead. Feel free to skim over and move on.

 

BB, not taken the wrong way at all - in fact, I fully symapthise. Mum and Dad are the same - never been unemployed, worked their backsides off, only had two kids, bought their house - did absolutely everything that society asks of people. Now they're here at 67 and 70 respectively, and where has it got them? My poor Dad is a walking misdiagnosis, they seem to think that because my elder sister is a Nurse and I used to work in a dementia centre my Mum shouldn't need any support. Lovely idea, but not when we both work full time - how the hell are we supposed to help? My Mum has been ripped off to the eyeballs, firstly by CrapFest then by some dodgy debt management company. Where's all that support they were promised, from the cradle to the grave? I'll tell you where - it's beating a hasty retreat over the horizon. In the meantime, my Mum (who is the size of a house sparrow) has been left with my 12 stone Dad, a commode and a bed in the dining room. If he fell, he'd take her with him. Even the paramedics who brought him home said he shouldn't be there - they didn't actually DO anything about it, but they did mention he shouldn't have been discharged. Thanks for that, lads. He fell again 15 minutes after they dumped him on the doorstep, and ended up being readmitted.

 

The only reason...ONLY reason...things are starting to move now is because my Sister (God bless her) has started chucking her professional weight around, which makes her feel horrible. How people with no knowledge of "The System" cope is utterly beyond me. If the mark of a society is how we treat our elders, we're a bloody disgrace.

 

OK, rant over. Tomorrow's another day and another opportunity to plant my boot up someone's backside if this keeps happening.

 

BB, again, you have my full sympathy. I know how hard it is fighting for someone else, never mind having to do it for yourself. It's all wrong, it really is. Sending you lots of good thoughts in the atmosphere - it's not much, but it's about the best I've got at the minute. :-)

My poor Dad is a walking misdiagnosis,

 

I am in the same situation, unfortunately. :( Your dad has my sympathy. With me, they also hid important stuff from my parents, which led to me having a head injury as an 11 year old and they also blamed every problem on a disability I have. We found in September that it's possible that my problems are sod all to do with this and are in fact, something more sinister.
