    • 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.

Has anyone tried to launch a complaint against an employee of this company? Tried to launch several complaints against a member of staff but head office just keep fobbing me off. What this chap has done is unacceptable as ive written several letters to him requesting all communications to be done in writing...he seems not to be able to read as he still phones, and what really 'gets on my goat' is he phones work and this i demanded was to stop. Any suggestions?

only about 5-6weeks....seems pretty lame. ive looked through the OFT and trading standards website, so my next letter will be containing some interesting quotes. of course it shall be reg post as these clowns will probably deny getting it. Im afraid the police can do nothing about it, they wouldnt be interested. Many people in their jobs dont really know as much as they should, i find this with some bank clerks.

Hello lostinspace. There are various Template letters in the Harassment Section Of CAG Libraries. Use the One for Telephone Harassment (obviously) that should bring an end to the calls, but don`t hold your breath. If you send it and he ignores it, is there any way you can record the calls, great. If not, make sure you keep a log of times and dates of all the calls. May be handy later. Here`s the link. Edit it to suit the situation and insist there are no calls to you husbands work or you will contact Trading Standards.

 

5 or 6 weeks is not Pretty Lame. The **** Monkey Shouldn`t Do It!

 

The Consumer Forums - Harassment

 

Has he ever done a " Field Call " to your property?

 

In my mind there are two ways ( three actually, but using the third is only for your own immediate gratification, and will get you in big trouble ) to deal with " Doorstep Visits ". First is to send the Other harassment template dealing with planned visits. They seem to listen to this more than the Telephone one.

 

The other is to wait until he visits again ( if he does this) then dial 999 and report a trespasser who is Stalking and Harassing you. If he is still there when they arrive, which I doubt very much he will be, then make sure the Police Understand that this is a Criminal Offence and they are Not there to side with him, but to Prevent a " Breach of The Peace " and in your view they should escort the Stalker from the property to prevent a " Breach of the Peace " from happening.

 

It may also benefit you to start a thread on the Debt Collection Section. There may be some thing there that helps to give this animal his comeuppance. Even the Legal Issues area might help? Here are the links.

Dear Sir/Madam

 

Re:− Account/Reference Number 4563210025897412

 

This letter is a formal request pursuant to s.77 to s.79 of the Consumer Credit Act 1974.. I require you to provide me with a true copy of the credit agreement relating to the above account, together with any other documentation the Act requires you to provide.

 

I expect you to comply fully and properly with this request, within the statutory time limit. You are reminded that should you fail to comply with my request, the provisions of s.77(6) will apply.

 

Your attention is drawn to ss.5(2), 3(b),6 and 7 of the Consumer Protection from Unfair Trading Regulations 2008 (CPUTR).

 

I enclose a postal order in the sum of £1.00, which is the statutory fee. Note that these funds are not to be used for any other purpose.

 

If you are unable to comply fully and properly with this request, you should confirm this in writing at the earliest opportunity, and certainly within the statutory time limit for compliance, and return the fee.

 

We look forward to hearing from you.

 

Yours faithfully

 

 

print your name (not sign) and enclose a one pound postal order, send it to head office at :

Send the letter Ozz has posted. And The ones I linked. Let`s see what happens.

 

When you get the reply to The CCA Request We will know what charges you have, and what can be claimed back. That £25 for a start. They have 14 days to get this to you. If not then you can legally dispute the agreement, at least until they do send it.

 

When/ If You do have the CCA Post it up for more advice. Then we will send A subject Access Request ( SAR). This will give us the real measure of how they have treated the account and what remarks they have made about you and your husband. They will have put down all calls and visits and the reasons WHY they made them. there should also be transcripts of the actual calls I beleive. These are normally very interesting. We can go from there with a view to sorting out the people at your local office. If it still exists?lol;)
