    • 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.

good morning Bankfodder.

 

My claim will not be under five thousand, so that removes the small claim application

 

The money claimed are

 

1. Value of the car taken.

 

2.Cost of new engine and money spent on car.in the 6 month up to them taking lot.

 

3. Taxi fare for getting to appointments (work) and to shops etc

 

4.Money to put a replacement car on the road and the hire of car. this is an on going bill. The hire will stop on the day that I have replaced my car.

 

The total to date is around £1300 This figure has to be left open because of the hire cost.

 

I would put my claim as a fast track case because it is not a fixed cost.

 

The I would ask courts for compensation for destress.

 

Does the fact that it is a fast track application change any of the details sett out in the small claims guide please advice

 

Thanks

 

The amount claimed

Hi SITE TEAM,

 

We have a big problem that till now has not been looked into. We are all concerned about getting some form of Judgment on LBL.

Brill if we do but how do we enforce this to get our money back.

We need some serious advice on what can be done

No good having Judgment if its worth nothing

High all victims it's important that any judgment order includes ALL of their companies ........ including certain named individuals & addresses.

 

Those already in court should advise their legal reps of this asap

 

Don't assume that because their paperwork names certain individuals it's correct it may not be ;)

 

I'm (or rather someone else is:D) organizing a list which I'll let everyone have very soon

Hi Guys,

 

Can any body please point me in the right direction for making a claim under restituional damages from my unlawful bank charges.

I have already asked the FOS they seem to not have any form of understanding of this at all.

They seem to think that its to do with the interest on the charges.

Is the any letter that has already been formed to do the request.

 

many thanks

Hi Nicky,

Why do you need another case to refer too, you have receipts for expenditure spent on car, no?

 

In any event, if they have in mind to settle, and they generally don't until they are forced to, generally by cost implications, or an impactive judgment that would make a precedent ruling opening the floodgates for others.

 

They will simply obtain a CAP valuation, giving them the retail valuation of your make and model of vehicle, trade and disposal values of vehicles with a similar mileage and base any offering on that.

They will quote you " As you may be aware CAP is used as the industry benchmark for used car disposal values and provides the latest used car market values drawn from analysis of recent disposals data, including approximately 1.5 million transactions per year from all sectors of the motor industry.They may or may not accept some additional value for the other works done on the car and make a commercial offering.

 

You will than decide if you want to accept or decline.

 

Any evidence that shows real material loss, or expenditure spent like taxi fare receipts, or any other necessary expenditure laid out as a consequence of being without vehicle, will substantiate any claim on your behalf.

 

Don't forget, once a car was purchased by yourself, you personally, would have mitigated any further loss etc.

 

So gather all supporting evidence and present it to them with an offer for them to be commercial and settle.

 

Otherwise, this could drag on, only for the judge to direct that you both have further time to settle or he will penalise either or both parties for being obstructive.

 

Again, just my penny's worth with the usual caveats.
