    • 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.

Original cc debt was with Sainsuburys, they passed it on a few years ago and I've been paying Robinson way ever since. They send a card so it simply gets paid each and every month. However, the debt has increased somewhat since they took it on.

 

Anyway, I now no longer answer any of their letters, they send the same one each month saying I'm late with payment blah blah....it's simply that I don't pay them when they want paying but instead pay them the same time each month ....all it would take is for one of their staff to update their systems to reflect the date I pay on rather than churning out needless letters saying they haven't received payment etc..

 

Anyway, I have now opened the last two from them, one is the same as they usually send the other is a statement....but I can't quite work it out...it says at the top of the satatement...

 

Account Number xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

Account Type Terminated Agreement with Robinson way (ex sainsburys)

 

and it gives a statement period and shows all payments..

 

but at the foot of the statement it says 'Closing Balance' which is significantly higher than the original owing amount....but is this a closing balance and they've also terminated the agreement (not that I have ever agreed to anything with Robinson Way...

 

or is just their usual annual statement.

 

 

My next move will be to Subject Access Sainsburys..there is nothing on my credit file with them...but the debt exists and I guess I've only used the free online credit report from the one CRA...i'm probably on others CRA's files....Original agreement which I have yet to request a cca was pre 2000

They are required to send you a statement of account every year under the CCA 2006;

fully implemented 01 October 2008;

if they do not, then they cannot enforce.

 

It is up to you, as to whether you wish to challenge the authenticity of the agreement upon which they rely.

 

If so, then make a Request under section 77/78 of the Consumer Credit Act 1974; requesting a true 'executed' (signed) copy of the (alleged) Consumer Credit Agreement and any other document referred to in it.

 

The statutory fee payable is: £1 GBP, mark this payment: (postal order is best)

CCA STATUTORY FEE ONLY.

 

As stated above, they have 12 working days + 2 for postal delivery to reply.

  • 1 month later...

Sent of a CCA request to Robinson re a debt with a well known supermarket chain, ...1 month on and I receive from Robinson a 7 page

credit agreement with their reference number written in pen at the bottom of the page.

 

There are zero details at all of mine on the agreement re myself and the supermarket chain....there is no place from my details, no boxes ticked, no

signature boxes nothing.

 

They also enclose a letter requesting that I now make good the balance within 10 days.

 

Next step? I'm tempted to just ignore them and contact the original creditor direct, I've paid Robinson for 5 years with no payments missed and yet now all of a sudden they want it in full on the back/absence of a true signed agreement and with no thought given for 5 years of payments made etc

I'd be tempted to send them Scots letter below & see what their response is;

 

Re: my request under the Consumer Credit Act 1974

 

Thank you for your recent letter sent to me, the contents of which are noted. I appreciate your quick response to my original letter. However, the reply received by me does not fulfil your requirements under the Consumer Credit Act 1974.

 

The Act demands that I be supplied with a true copy of any properly executed credit agreement that exists in relation to the above account. I may ask for this on demand providing that a fee of £1.00 is paid. This fee was sent with my original letter.

 

My request remains outstanding. The items you sent in your reply, does not constitute a true copy of any credit agreement that may or may not have been signed by me on the opening of this account. It neither confirms that I am liable for any alleged debt to you, nor gives me any chance to evaluate whether any original agreement was ‘properly executed’.

 

I still require you to send me a true copy of the original credit agreement that you allege exists. As you will know, under the Consumer Credit Act 1974, a judge is not permitted to make any enforcement order unless the creditor can provide a true signed copy of the original credit agreement. This means that unless you can produce such an agreement, this alleged debt is not enforceable in law.

 

You had until XX/XX/2008 to provide me with the true copy I requested. You are now in default of my request. Any account I hold with you is now in legal dispute. Whilst the account remains in dispute, you are not permitted to ask for any payment, nor am I obliged to offer any payment to you. Furthermore, whilst the dispute remains, you are not entitled to charge any interest on the account, nor make any further charges to the account. Additionally, you are not entitled to register any information on this account with any credit reference agency.

 

To register information with a credit reference agency, you must have written consent from the customer to collate and share such information. This consent is given in the form of a signed credit agreement, so until you produce such an agreement, you may not do this.

 

The requirement for consent to share data is a clear requirement of the Data Protection Act 1998. any such attempts to share my data without my consent will be met with a complaint to the Information Commissioners Office

 

To sum up, I will not be making any further payments to you until you provide me with the document I have requested. Whilst you remain in default of my request, you are not permitted to take any action against this account. This includes adding further charges and passing any information to the credit reference agencies.

 

Should you not have any signed credit agreement in relation to this alleged debt, please confirm this in writing to me.

 

 

I look forward to your reply.

 

Yours faithfully

Print name do not sign

 

**amend to suit your circumstances.**

I'll SARS the Original Creditor and speak to them direct and send Robinson the letter above.

 

Not sure what is to be gained by them sending me a credit agreement but with my details or signature on it, it quite clearly does not meet the requirements of the CCA, true signed copy and all that.

Robinson way seems to ignore the law regarding an original credit agreement, surely they must be abusing the credit consumer act, by sending out false and forged credit agreements when customers use they rights to ask for them???

I have wrote a similiar thread, which as a copy the the credit agreement robinson way sent me, forged signatures and no account numbers, what is this country coming to if the law allows these people to get away and abuse the legal system..

I didn't even get that, just 7 pages of a credit agreement without any of my details or indeed anywhere where my details could have been...

 

Totally worthless them sending it to me , if they're so stupid to think that I'll now continue to pay them in the absence of any agreement well that really is their bad luck.

Looks like they have nothing, exactly the same in my case, and are trying to bluff you into paying. They will know it works with a percentage of the people who contact them so for them its worth a try, even though its wrong.

 

Cerbs letter will illicit a response, but bear in mind Sainburys may have a copy of the original and did not pass over to Robbers when they bought the debt. So not home free just yet;)

 

Stick at it though.

I can go one better, in reply to my CCA Robinson Way made one up and put my latest address on it; that’s two addresses on from when the account was opened in addition they used up to date default charges ect. When I sent the CCA to Sainsbury’s all I got was an application form with no prescribed terms on it. In a word Robinson Way made up a Credit Agreement and purported it as coming from Sainsbury’s.

  • 4 weeks later...

I used the section 77/78 letter from the template section.

 

I got back a month later from the DCA a copy of a Credit Agreement and a paragraph or so down it states it's also 'conditions of use' .

 

The document is 4 pages long, mentions in a table format the interest rates and a few other bits and pieces and gives at the end a right to cancel with a place to put a signature and date it. There is no place on these four pages where I could sign for the credit agreement...I guess this is fundamentally an issue, I should at least be able to see where I have to sign for the agreement? There are no dates mentioned on the sent document

 

I wrote to the DCA after they sent the above stating that I did not feel it was what I had originally requested and went on to state that I required a true and signed copy of my agreement so as to be able to check it's validity etc.

 

The dca responsed stating that in their opinion they had sent what they needed to (enter the thread on here ' why not to send off for a cca re the 77/78 etc)

 

They have written several times since but given they haven't in my opinion sent what I requested then for me the account is still in dispute (I sent the dispute letter previously)

 

In any case, I've now had a read through the 'credit agreement/conditions of use card and contained within this 'credit agreement that the dca feel is consistent with their obligations under the request I made under the CCA 1974 are three what I think are pertinent bits of information (watch some cagger piddle on my parade)

 

1, At the top of the agreement is a line that contains in print my name and address. So, it's feasible that this agreement may be part relevant to me ..sounds all correct.

 

But then it gets a bit strange because

 

2, Also contained in this alleged agreement is reference to a particular 'Act' and

3, Reference to another piece of 'legislation'

 

The problem is my original credit agreement was in force 2 years before these acts even existed.

 

Am I right in thinking that either A. The DCA has sent their own knocked up agreement and just inserted my typed name into the four pages or are the OC entitled to send out 'condtions of use' and Credit Agreements at varying intervals during your stay in credit with them so to speak?

 

I tend to think the DCA have been somewhat dishonest....

Just a couple of questions.

 

When was your agreement taken out ?

Who was the card issuer ?

Who is the DCA ?

Latest epistle from them received today contained a sentence in big bold beautiful lettering at the foot of the page stating

 

Please note that by an agreement dated xx xxxxxxx 2009 your account noted above was assigned by Robinson Way & Company Ltd to whom all monies are now due.

They have in the past alleged that they own the debt they're attempting to collect from me but a SARS mid August 09 from the original creditor showed my account as being updated by them (the OC) with each and every payment made to Robinson Way.

 

Their above assignment 'notice' seems simply that of a trimming of their company name, they don't own and never have owned my alleged debt but 'to whom all monies are now due' seems just a little misleading.

I think this may be RW reassigning to themselves in a slightly different company name following a management buyout.

 

It's strange wording... 'assigned by' ... doesn't really make sense! Assigned from who to who?

Robinson Way & Company Limited have passed all their LEMONS on to their new company:

Robinson Way Ltd.

 

Yesterday, I received a letter and at the bottom was a giro slip upon which stated similar.

Basically it says that the LEMONS have been assigned by;

Robinson Way & Company Limited to:

Robinson Way Ltd.
