    • 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 everyone,

 

I have an account with Studio which is currently in dispute as they have not provided a proper agreement following a CCA Request.

 

I am in the process of claiming back all the PPI premiums ever paid which is in the region of £1500 without interest. I wrote asking Studio to refund the PPI premiums and all penalty charges, they refunded the penalty charges but are refusing to refund the PPI premiums.

 

What I need to know is should I send them another refund request or ask them to reconsider and if after further consideration the answer is not a positive one then they can consider the letter as a Letter Before Action.

 

Any thoughts

Hi everyone,

 

I have an account with Studio which is currently in dispute as they have not provided a proper agreement following a CCA Request.

 

I am in the process of claiming back all the PPI premiums ever paid which is in the region of £1500 without interest. I wrote asking Studio to refund the PPI premiums and all penalty charges, they refunded the penalty charges but are refusing to refund the PPI premiums. (if you have their refusal in writing you can submit a claim to the Financial Ombudsman Service claiming mis-selling of the PPI) providing you do have a valid claim for mis-selling. Check out the stickies at the top of the forum for reasons PPI was mis-sold here is a link and there is much more info available if you read the stickies......

 

PPI - Some Notes for Claimants.. and this is a longer one with even more links to help you reclaim.

Mis-sold PPI? Want your money back? use these links to help

 

 

What I need to know is should I send them another refund request or ask them to reconsider and if after further consideration the answer is not a positive one then they can consider the letter as a Letter Before Action.

 

This is your call it would be inappropriate for me to offer advice which you may not be agreeable to.

 

So the choice is yours to:

 

write again asking them to reconsider your claim.

tell them you do not accept their decision on the repayment of PPI and that you intend to take further action through the FOS or Court (again your choice on the preferred route)

 

Any thoughts

 

 

All my thoughts are in blue including links to help you out.

------------------------------------------------

Bank charge successes:

Halifax - Full settlement incl interest.

HSBC - Settlement, goodwill no admission of liability about 75% of claim.

RBS - Settlement, goodwill no admission of liability about 70% of claim.

2 ongoing claims for bank charges with HSBC with more to come. (Supreme Court ruling could have upset these claims) They did :mad:

PPI Successes

PPI 4 settlements on 9 loans. FOS involvement on 7 added on the 8 % Statutory interest another 30% to both.

2 claims settled in full with LV without FOS involvement.

2 claims settled in full with HSBC without FOS involvement

 

PPI Claims ongoing with:

Cap one Now with the FOS

Barclays. Paid up today 24/04/10 cheque received for over £4,500 and in the bank.

LTSB still have to decide on this as their SAR production was abysmal. Papers data mixed up documents missing etc

 

1 Complaint not upheld by FOS they said it was ICO issue. Complaint upheld by ICO. See this..

***RBS PPI Claim Long fight but, WON***

 

Please do not PM me for advice as it may be sometime before I can respond.

 

Keep at them. Do not give way and do not accept all they tell you, they will delay and stall for as long as they can to prevent repaying you your mis-sold PPI.

Thank you alanalana,

 

I will make another request to Studio asking for the ppi premiums but this time i will also be wanting contractual interest(i know you think 8% statuory is the way to go) in-order to make them take the request more seriously as it more than doubles the ppi premiums.

 

If they dont respond then i will take up the FOS solution or look into the court route.

Good luck, you have made a start on the road to getting your money back.

 

Just post up questions as you go along someone will look in to advise.

Update:

They wont up-hold my claim and the letter they sent had the following paragraph.

We sell insurance on a non-advised basis and therefore only provide customers with clear balanced information to enable them to make an informed choice. On this basis we do not take into account existing insurance that a customer may have in place nor do we make any recommendation on the suitability of the product

[end quote]

 

Oh and they remind me of my rights to refer the matter to the FOS

Anyone have any thoughts.

I have tried exactly the same with Studio. They refunded the charges but refused to refund the PPI payments quoting the same wording.

 

Any advice on how to proceed would be appreciated.

I asked for the refund of PPI and they sent letter 1 in reply.(in pdf below)

I asked them to reconsider and they sent letter 2 in reply.(in pdf below)

 

I have read on here that they have paid up after receiving a letter before action but would like a bit more input from other caggers regarding this.

The letters that studio are sending appear to be their standard response. Yes, I would like some info regarding sending a letter before action.

also like to say i got excellent advice and help from BankFodder re: PPI. Within a couple of days sending letter all PPI dissapeared from my account like it never existed. No explanation/no apologie/no regard to the fact that this may have caused an unfair advantage in there favour. But hey....I havnt finished yet.
