    • 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 all, I am trying to find out some information on charging orders and wondered if anyone knows the law in detail on this matter?

 

1. Is there is a limit to the term of a successful charging order? I know that some countries have a limit on the term, I think New Zealand has a 2 year limit for example. I am expecting that there is no limit in the UK (the table seams to be tilted in favour of the creditors on every other matter, so why not this?) but thought I may as well ask out of interest...

 

2. What is the equity slice threshold that is generally required for an 'Order of Sale' to be approved? If there was about 30K equity best case and the total debts amounted to 25k split between 5 creditors for example, would the order of sale be granted? Or would there be too much risk that the sale would produce too little equity to satisfy the debts? If the creditors all agreed to take a reduced slice of flesh so to speak, could it be approved in this way?

I thought this might be of interest to all of you. It is a set of statistics for the amount of charging orders applied for and granted over recent years:

Notes:

 

 

 

 

1. Charging orders allow a creditor for an unsecured loan which is in default to tie that

loan to an asset owned by the debtor. In many cases this asset will be residential

property but orders can also be granted against land, commercial property or other assets.

However figures on charging orders split by type of asset are not available

 

2. Data for all years have been revised, and figures for 2007 are provisional.
