    • 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.

It's funny, but someone who is capable of that does not have a good energy about them, they can't have, and for years we had nothing but bad luck, things going wrong etc....

 

Now, the change in our lives is unbelievable! It's as though every bit of negativity, and negative energy they emitted has totally dispersed! We have never had things go so well for us, it actually feels as though a dark and nasty rain cloud of doom has been blown away from above us and our home, and has been replaced by light positive energy - absolute heaven!!

 

I think there really is something in what you are saying here. Bad people do give out bad energy.

Some people are unbelievable.

 

What made me swear today - how sore my head is. I have an eye test booked for Monday. I hope it's to do with that and not the other issue I have, else it's back to neurology for me. :(

 

Oh that makes two of us Nystagmite! I've been getting blurred vision too, and blue flashing lights, it's like I'm in a disco sometimes :lol:

 

I thought it was Migraine at first, but I do think it's something to do with my eyes, so I'm off for an eye test next week! I hope yours goes well love X

Thanks. :) Mine doesn't feel like migraine. The last time I got a migraine, (some 8 years ago) it involved what I think is known as aura. Not had that thankfully. Vision is ok. But given the fall I had last week, it is something that may need to be checked out.

 

I hope if I do go back to the doctors, they won't tell me to just drink more.

 

Hope all goes well Duck.

this made me swear

 

The mother of an eight-month-old baby who died after being left behind in a hot car has been charged with child neglect.

Arlington County police said 32-year-old Zoraida Magali Conde Hernandez was arrested after rushing to Inova Alexandria Hospital with her son.

The baby was apparently left on the back seat of the car last Friday while she was at work for six hours. The temperature in Arlington hit 32C (90F) that day.

Officers said the incident was unintentional.

The mother intended to drop the boy off at a day care centre and did not realise the baby was in the car until she went to pick up another child.

Hernandez is being held without bail at the Arlington County Detention Facility.

Also last Friday, a 16-month-old girl died after being left in a truck for four hours in Baltimore while a relative took a nap.

No charges have been filed yet and the death is still under investigation.

Seconded.

 

Went out for a run just now. The route I take, I have to run past a load of houses. Can't believe the amount of people who park on the pavement. Someone (a relative of mine, unfortunately) left just enough room for me to squeeze past. How difficult is it to park on a road? I am not willing to risk my own safety (I'm partially sighted and my hearing's buggered) by walking on the road.

What made me swear today? And made me sad is the way the estate gardeners for Places for People have just decimated the shrubs just outside my garden :( They have reduced them to 2 inch stubs by applying the usual gardeners tool of the chainsaw! Now the place just looks bare :(

Did a race yesterday, which was so badly organised. It took them until July 7th to tell us that they're still waiting on running t-shirts. My pack was sent and received on Saturday. By that time, I was already in London.

 

I really want to know what my £50 was spent on. Virtually no marshals or toilets and no goody bag.

our very lovely neighbours ( not ) persistantly slamming the front door, specially around 5.30 am, every time they go out they have to slam it, no need as it is same sort of door as ours, also she works for a cab firm and brings a mini bus home, parks it outside and blocks our light out plus she has to leave it running for anything up to 20 minutes while she goes in the house, it is a diesel bus. The are from Portugal but speak English when it suits
