    • 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.

No I was being a bit thick Jules (as usual, I know), and thinking they were going for the joint names thing to strike out, but it's the full and final settlement that you haven't agreed to isn't it, and I think your letter says it all really.

mmmmm, nice of Miss Ross, of course the general devilment making part of me would suggest that perhaps a complaint to the Law Society about her behaviour in this matter may be in order, still probably best to leave it to the discretion of the courts

Update so far

Account No.1 Handed in AQ today 13/10/06 .....oh bugger its friday 13th

 

Account No.2 Hearing set for 20/20/06 after YB said I had cashed the £200 part settlement cheque and have accepted this as "full and final settlement"

 

I dont think so Miss Ross.....I`m sure I sent you a letter to the contrary and oh whats this in my hand ......the £200 cheque UNCASHED

 

Would love Miss Ross to attend hearing on 20th but I have more chance of seeing Jesus dancing the maypole.

 

Keep you up to speed

BOOOOOOOOOOOOO....... to Miss Ross

 

Letter dropped through post this morning....words to the effect of........

 

We realise we have made a mistake(damn right you have) and we have written to court removing or application for a strike out as you have not cashed the cheque and you did not agree this to be a full and final settlement(ooooo you don`t say).

 

They have instead entered a defence against my joint account claim (usual blurb)

 

They have also sent an offer of £300 + £50 costs (no 8% interest though) for the period November to July(funny that i was claiming another £100 for October too)

Will accept their offer if they also include the £100 from October I think.

 

Writing letter to that effect and sending Monday.

I have had a few charges also since I started my claim approx £100>150 , anyone think I should ask for these at the same time or separately:???: :???: .

 

Your input and advice would be appreciated guys :grin: :grin: :grin:

I asked this in my thread hun, and was advised I'd be better to put a second claim in once the current one was over, to avoid any confusion.

Update .........

Went to court on the morning of 20th october just to make sure that Yorkshires request for a strike out hearing had been declined and it had..........Boo beginning to wish I had not sent letter to court explaining cheque had not been cashed or accepted and just turned up on the day to smear egg all over Yorkshires faces.

 

Any Ho..

 

Received letter from court saying that on the 16th of October Judge Glentworth decided that my case will be transferred from Wakefield County Court to Leeds County Court.If I wish to object to this I have to respond within 7 days I think.

Don`t mind the case going there as it is only about another 6 miles away and dont want to delay the case anymore than I have to.I am expecting Yorkshire to object just for the sake of it as another delaying tactic , but hey who cares , the clock is ticking and the interest adding up!!!

 

Sorry for the late update(Caro:rolleyes:)will try to keep on top of things a bit better.

 

Good luck with your claim too Callyday if I can help you in anyway don`t hesitate

to ask.

A.Q handed in 6/11/06 for joint account (the one Miss Ross said was settled) .

 

Talking to girl on counter (who is also claiming her charges tee hee) and she says the reason my own account case has been transferred to Leeds is because the Judge wants to deal with all the claims in the area .

 

No fee for this A.Q (thank god as I am skint)

 

Soooooo I will just sit back and wait for a silly offer from Yorkshire Bank and carry on as normal.

 

BTW Caro come and see us in The Bear Garden (a bit earlier in the evening ,what are u a vampire???)

Hi Everyone,

 

About time i updated my thread ,its been a while

 

Both cases now transferred to The Mercantile Court in Leeds:eek::)

 

This means one of two things as far as I can tell

 

1, The bank will have to go to court reveal their true costs for charges lose and have to pay me back then open the floodgates re charge costs

BUT UNFORTUNATELY THIS WILL NEVER HAPPEN !!!!!!!!!!

 

2, And this will no doubt be the case , the banks will crap themselves at the thought of having to reveal true costs pay me in full + costs + 8% and I will buy a few large drinks for the usual suspects at

 

http://www.consumeractiongroup.co.uk/forum/bear-garden/50525-yorkshire-cag-do-26th.html

Then once my overdraft is cleared and most of the money has gone onto paying credit card balance and of course my donation to this site, its onto round two for all I have been charged by Yorkshire since entering my claims.

 

Oh yes then credit card companies , store cards , mortgage Early repayment charges and whatever else I can think of .

 

I`m sure my sister still owes me a tenner............... starting my prelim letter to her now ( Don`t laugh she works for Barclays so she deserves it PMSL)

 

Will keep you posted

Jules

Take a look at thread called JDW v Yorkshire in this forum, but all the folk down for the Mercantile are in the same boat, so I should keep an eye on the Mercantile forum, and probably post there too so you can support each other.
