    • It's a GR Yaris - Finance is with Alphera, who are part of BMW I believe. I'm sure the unit is very expensive to repair, I have even told them I would be happy with a refurbished/reconditioned unit, in trying to be reasonable as well.
    • Without seeing this envelope, document and sticker it is impossible to advise properly. However, just going on what you have told us, there are two ways you can deal with this: !. The easy way. This has the lowest risk but the guarantee of a penalty for speeding.  You can respond to the SJPN by pleading “Not Guilty” to both charges. In the “Reasons for pleading Not Guilty” box you can explain that you responded to the request for driver’s details but it was recently returned to you, seemingly not actioned. However, you are willing to plead guilty to the speeding charge providing, and only providing, the “Fail to Provide Driver's Details" (FtP) charge is dropped. You could also ask the court to consider sentencing you at the fixed penalty level (£100 and 3 points) as this prosecution seems to be the result of an administrative problem outside your control. 2. The not so easy way with higher risk. This could see you convicted of the FtP charge but has the possibility that you escape with no penalty whatsoever. You can do the same – plead not guilty to both charges. If you go down this route the speeding charge cannot succeed as they have no evidence you were driving. This comes from your response to the request for driver’s details which the police say they have not got. You can mention in the “Reasons” box that you returned the request for driver’s details as required. You will then face a trial for the FtP charge and you can produced your response together with the envelope and sticker showing it had been returned to you. The risk with this is that if your defence fails you will be fined a week and a half’s net income, pay a “Victim Surcharge” of 40% of the fine, pay prosecution costs of around £650 and have six points together with an endorsement code (MS90) which will see your insurance premiums rocket.

    • 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.

Not sure on the above. Can you post the garage invoice up for us to have a look at.

 

Just had a quick look at the CCA and the basic arithmatic on the form seems OK, even if the way it's laid out is very confusing.

 

Can somebody please run the figures through the APR calc to see if that is all OK?

Firstly, what is the date of the agreement? - the rules changed somewhat on 31st May 2005. If it was signed after that date then there will be several non-fatal problems.

 

Secondly, it's hard to check the maths on this because they do not state the rate of interest, only the APR (which isn't at all the same thing).

 

Thirdly, I'll bet that that £195 acceptance fee has been treated as credit, which, pending the judgment of their lordships in the Court of Appeal, make it unenforceable.

Re Welcome finance agreement the Finance was charged at 27.3% and the ppi charged at 24.7%

 

 

I have attached the garage invoice showing the £20 difference Welcome told me to contact the garage as its nothing to do with them and teh garage says to contact Welcome so just going around in circles

 

At the moment the ombudsman is looking into this for me as all these peopel want me to do is sign a new agreement the office in Hull where I have been paying my money to has been getting me to phone a mobile and I pay the money over the phone they reduced my balance in may to £2000 yet the compliance department say I still owe £3790 so haev a real battle do not know what to do al they want to do is take the car and sell it at auction? over my dead body

Just need some help

Hi what was welcomes explanation for the £20 difference? or have you still not got a firm answer? I'm pretty sure if the total amount payable on the agreement is incorrect than this has serious implications...probably making it unenforcable.

Thanks so much for the reply this is welcomes response

I note that the amount stated on the garage invoice is £6571.00 which is £20 less than on the amount of credit. I am unable to advise you on this issue and would like to refer you directly to the garage with this query.

 

So Like a lemon I phoned them and they said its not theire responsibility

 

Cannot afford a solicitor and not sure where to turn to

 

Thanks

I contacted the branch in Hull and they agreed if I started making payments to reduce the balance to half so i started paying them O then got a letetr from the ombudsman stating they were refunding £1200 plus a £500 cheque on the condition I sign a new agreement I said no so we are arguing over the PPI now I have a text from the office in Hull stating I owe £2000 so why would I sign a new agreement for £3780.

 

I have a official complaint going through now and hoepfully the ombudsman will help me, I am fed up of fighting these people they tell liars and will not listen

 

I want to take them to court and fight this but I cannot afford a solicitor and there is no win no fee help available

 

Thanks

Hmmm, you have a few issues to tackle here by the looks of things.

 

If it was me, Id be pursuing the PPI through the ombudsman first, with the aim of getting the £1700 offered to you as a cheque for you to put into your bank (ie not just taken off your loan balance)...without signing a new agreement obviously.

 

If you manage this, you can then tackle the unenforceability issue and if necessary the fact they agreed to reduce the balance to £2000.

 

Best case scenario then is no loan and £1700 sitting in your bank.

 

With regards to the £20 discrepancy, Im not too sure on this one...in theory if any of the prescribed terms were wrong then this would make the agreement unenforcable, but knowing Welcome they would probably just say that they were given the wrong figures from the garage and therefore drew up an "accurate" agreement with the figures "they were given". IMO this would be tough luck for Welcome as they should check these things, but how a judge would see it is anyones guess.

Hi I am at present dealing with the PPI dept Welcome will not pay me any refund they are adamant I have to sign a new agreement before refunding it to my account they refuse to give me a cheque and the ombudsman will not push them.

I have a letter from Hull asking me to sign the leter I sent to them asking them to deal with it and not Compliance but Compliance do not believe I have been dealing with Hull as they do not talk to each other

I am in a no win situation I feel with these idiots

 

Thanks

I think if you have arrears they are allowed to use the refund to pay these off then send the rest as a cheque. For instance, if you were £600 in arrears they would put £600 on your acccount to bring it up to date and send you the rest as cheque.

Not made a payment for 16 months as this account was been disputed so they will not give me any money and I am not going to sign a new agreement for 3780 when I have text message stating my balance is £2000, Hull said I do not have to sign a new agreement I have a letter from them yet Nottingham say I have to sign a new agreement so not sure what is going on they are liars :eek:
