    • 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.

Lowell are chasing me for a debt I believe to be over the six year statute of limitations period. I sent them the Stat Barred letter and now they have come back to me saying a payment was made on the account four and a half years ago. They haven't supplied any evidence to support this, just an amount and a date the payment was made. Should I ask them for proof of this payment?

 

In their latest letter they are quoting "section 29 (7) of the limitation act 1980"

Hi

Absolutely, Make them prove when, where and who made the payment.

They have a duty to do so.

Lowells have tried "an attempted payment was made" also, which of course doesn't work.

It wouldn't surprise me if one of their threat monkeys went to a bank and paid a token amount.

If you are asked to deal with any matter via private message, PLEASE report it.

Everything I say is opinion only. If you are unsure on any comment made, you should see a qualified solicitor

Thank you silverfox1961!

 

Yes, their words were "Your last attempted payment date on this account was dated blah blah blah for a payment of £££. We trust this clarifies the situation and look forward to receiving your payment proposals" :rolleyes:

Tell them you were in prison at that time doing time for GBH to a lying DCA.

 

 

:D:D

 

That statement means bu**er all. You have stated SB and they will have to now prove otherwise. If they continue to hassle you, report them to Trading Standards and the OFT

for information, they themselves have recently had CCJs filed against them.

The Leeds Losers are well known on here for their imaginary payments on Stat Barred debts. They tried it on with me. Problem was I was supposed to have made the payment at a bank on a Sunday when I was 5000 miles away.

 

As for these so called attempted payments, they dont count. You either have to pay the money or make a WRITTEN acknowledgement of the debt.

 

Personally I wouldnt even bother responding to their nonsense. You have told them the alleged debt is Statute Barred. They have to PROVE otherwise.

They recently issued proceedings against me.. the curts threw it out as they could nopt provide a copy of the signed agreement.

They still proceed in sending me threatening letters and have now handed over to Red Debt Collection Services. They're threatening me with a CCJ, a charge on my property and Bailiffs. I have told them this is Stat Barred but they persist in telling me it isn't, with wild accusations of attempted payments. Can some one suggest a good template letter so that i can finally get rid:confused: :mad:

i cannot see the point in keep sending them nice letters asking them to stop doing whatever,just let them be,let them get on with it and if they have the right paperwork/documentation then they will file for court proceedings. if not they will just keep pestering you until the cows come home.

Red Debt= Lowells. Same company, same threats, different monkeys. If they feel they have a case, take it to court.

 

My opinion, Complain to them and copy in Trading Standards and the OFT

I have these silly moments. I woke up this morning thinking of this thread :eek:

 

I would also complain to the CSA as what the lowlifes are doing is also against their own guidelines which go something like, "Once a debtor has confirmed the debt is Statute Barred, all collection activity should cease"
