    • Not really. His claim will succeed simply because its a simple matter of a lost parcel and no insurance. Its not a complex case so I think he’ll be fine, especially as it is P2G who arent very good at defending claims but I ageee its not been handled at all well.   My only concern with withdrawing is that he loses £35 in the case of £240 but thats a matter for him   I dont think it has a reduced chance of success if OP actually replies and actions things but if not then ofcourse it will struggle.   My concern is if he starts again it’ll be just as sporadic.   Maybe close thread and let him make a new one if hes ready to engage?
    • Please will you start reading up on the stories on the some form especially the pinned post. I have to say that I'm concerned that you feel that a warning from P2G is going to affect your rights and is going to subvert statutory law. I think you've been here for a few months and I would have hoped that by now you would understand that terms and conditions must always be interpreted in the light of overriding statute. Also I suggested that once you have done the reading on the sub- forum then you would understand the information that we would need in order to give you the best help. The fact that you haven't told us what the item was suggested also that you haven't done the reading. Please give us full details including identity of the item, value, where these properly declared? Dates – blah blah blah. Not paying attention to P2G. Pay attention to us
    • P2G can make clear whatever they want frankly, the judge isnt going to sit there and go “they told you to buy their insurance and you didn’t” and then dismiss your claim.  I would say you should send a formal complaint then after 7 days sent a LOC. Day 21 from now submit your claim on OCMC.    
    • I thought i could just use ( copy and paste)  the terminology from my other post earlier in the year when i previously claimed against P2g .   The parcel hasnt been 'officially ' lost yet i have another 13 days before their 'investigation' ends and then theyll probably offer the postage back as i didnt take the 'insurance'   But to recap ,  The parcel was booked through P2g and sent with Evri. No Protective Insurance was taken out. The parcels value is only £48 plus postage of £3 and the value of the parcel was declared The parcels tracking says while it was in Evri's system it was sent to an 'incorrect' depot and tracking would be updated in 24 hrs which it didnt and the delivery date passed, i then had a live chat with P2g who opened an investigation and im waiting to hear what's happened. My only concern is,  last time i claimed P2g made it clear that in future i must take out their protective insurance which i gavent and im wondering whether this will ' complicate' things ...  
    • it is precisely for these reasons that the OP should withdraw the claim and begin again. Firstly, the case has been badly handled from the start. The OP hasn't come to us and stuck to it in a regular engaging way. Secondly, it seems that the OP is now being advised on the basis of it being a matter of principle rather than looking at a sensible and pragmatic outcome. We have a duty to the people who come to help us to try and get the best solution for them that we can. Secondary is that we want to notch up a further victory against the parcel delivery industry – and frankly it doesn't matter which company it is as long as we get a victory. If we simply urge someone to continue a case at their own expense in a claim which has a very reduced chance of success, simply because it gives us personal satisfaction, then this is really contrary to what we do and certainly contrary to the interests of the claimant. I'm now urging the OP (Original Poster) to withdraw and to start again and work with us very closely in order to get a much more certain victory. By continuing this claim, not only with the OP risk even more money, it will take more time in the sense of failure will be demoralising. Better to feel that one is in control by exercising one's own choices and taking the long view

    • 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 hoping someone can help me solve a problem with my mk 3 ford mondeo tdci. A week or so ago the glow plug light came on and the car had no turbo boost when under pressure. A few days after that the ecu light came on and the car starting cutting out. I got fault code PO251 from my mates code reader which said there was a fault with the fuel pump. I took it into Ford yesterday for a diagnostic test which said it could be one of a number of problems (fuel meter, fuel rail, fuel filter, kinks in fuel pipes etc). The fuel pump was not listed as a possible fault. I changed the fuel rail & valves previously and also fuel filter so that wasn't the problem. I have changed the the fuel meter today and the car won't start now - Ford have said the engine doesn't require recoding after this. I don't think there could be any kinks in the pipes as they have never been touched. I have done everything I can possibly think of but to no avail. :confused: Really hope someone can help me out. Thanks in advance.

Sounds like a lack of fuel problem. Need to go back to basics here. First check lift pump is delivering to filter. Then get some tube the same size as the leak off tubes ( the ones that go from injector to injector and back to the filter/tank on no 4. Get 4 jars/bottles the same size and put tubes into them. Remove IMV (metering valve fuse and assumed you have checked this) and crank for about 5 seconds. You should see about 20cm3 in each jar. Anything significantly less and the HP pump has gone pop. Other signs are black hard deposits in the tank and fuel filter. To the best of your knowledge has it ever had petrol put in the tank? I am not aware that the HP pump will give a code but other things should register as a result. These things can be of questionable parentage to start at times when disturbed which is why you need to remove feed to the metering valve. This forces the fuel up to mega pressures which is why you need to crank for 5 seconds only.

 

If the fuel amounts in the jar seem to be correct then crank for a bit ( could be 30 seconds) and if it fires up then all well and good but do not run for more than 15 seconds. It should have bled properley then.

 

If still refuses to start then squirt easy start in the manifold for a bit to see if it will fire. This removes any mechanical issues.

PO251 - Injection pump fuel metering control A, cam/rotor/injector - circuit malfunction.

 

Wiring, injection pump, ECM

 

Erratic idle, fails to start.

 

Remove fuel filter

Drain contents, inspect for depsits (black with silver particles)

If 11mm diameter or more, remove fuel tand and flush.

Crikey Conniff, where do you get this from? 11mm? it will sound like marbles rattling around!

 

From the intial description and your contribution it does sound like the IMV valve was at fault but if the OP has followed the guidelines I suggested it will either confirm whether or not the pump has gone pop."Ouch"!!.

 

These HPCR engines especially the early ones can be a pig to start despite being supposedly self bleeding.

 

Can't see how you can remove the filter and check for 11mm deposits as it's a sealed unit unless you cut it up and even then I can't see it LOL Thats bigger than the internal line diameter.

 

Would be interesting to see the outcome from the OP.

Hi, I saw an article from Ford that suggested this too, though they suggested 10mm and that would indicate pump rotors and cams breaking up. Some early ones had suspect case hardening! Am currently going through all this heartbreak too. 54 plate TDCI Mondeo, bag of spanners!

Although you won't get better advice than from the two previous posters, it may be that someone else has had the same nightmare, so as a last resort try the "Scottish Mondeo Forum". On this site, mondeo owners discuss various problems and their solutions. Hope this helps.
