    • As your Sky Mobile account has more than one SIM, please head to sky.com/manage/mobile/my-number or give us a call free of charge on 03300 412524 to request a PAC that way. Sooo frustrating!! He has one too...
    • Hi Bazze I can't - it won't let me- I have tried...😔
    • If you have the SIM, use it to text PAC to 65075 …… rather than calling SKY
    • Hi All I know this a long shot but ha anyone got any advice please? Nearly three years ago (maybe more) my ex took a contract out for a new phone for my birthday that I ended up paying the bills on (lovely present huh) I have always paid the bill for this. The phone number that I have had for most of my adult life was passed over to this contract and I am old now haha We are now divorced and have not been in contact  - he is abusive and I have nothing to do with him. I cannot enter into any dialogue with him whatsoever. I have continued with my phone contract and number etc but am stuck - I have no access to my bills even though they come out of my account - as the contract is in his name I cannot get a pac code to move therefore I will lose my number if I cancel- sky just quote data protection at me which I get but this is soooo frustrating!!!! I know that the sensible thing would have been to just l cancel the dd lose the number get another contract elsewhere and get over myself and move on but I am just asking out there as a final desperate attempt - can anything whatsoever be done??? Thank you in advance :)

    • 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.

Thanks everyone:), and good luck LT:)

 

with planning the wedding (Valley of Fire is winning at the mo), flights, accommodation, blessing when we get back, reception, doing the cake (which I need to make as it's what I do), trying in vain to sort out the house for moving, and moving itself (no removals men for us after we've spent all our money on getting married!), the next thing I'm counting down to is my impending nervous breakdown. I reckon it's about 30 sleeps away...:D

I got married in Vegas, little chapel of flowers up near the stratosphere hotel.

 

Had elvis too, he sung love me tender as we walked down the asile, stopped the ceremony half way through for the wonder of you and finished off at the end with a rousing chorus of viva las vegas. It was sooooo funny got the dvd pictures with elvis afterwards everything.

 

and yes although it was 9 years ago I DO BELIEVE IT WAS THE REAL ELVIS
