    • 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'm looking for some advice on a matter

 

a couple of days ago I got a copy of my credit file from Experian, on it I had a nasty suprise with a £33 default from vodafone

 

It relates to 2009, when I moved properties

 

I switched from vodafone to another supplier as to get a better bundle for home broadband as well as the phone

 

I paid the last bill from vodafone, and gave them my new address and confirmed that i would not be getting any other charges

 

I have seen though that they have registered a default against me for the £33 back in early 2009 - which they hadn't contacted me about (if they had I would have cleared it quick sharp) as i am now in a position that is not exactly credit friendly and looking to get a mortgage.

 

so I know my first step is to get the account number and a history of the account from them which i intend to do today.

 

I'm not too sure what my next step should be, ultimately I want to get it removed, as I feel it is unfair that they did not contact me at the time (by any method) to let me know the charge so i could get it cleared.

 

Thanks all, Gary

 

 

I have found out that the account is xxxxxxxx, relating to number xxxxxxxxxx.

 

According to Vodafone the balance on the account is -£41 which confuses me even more about the default and the late payments.

 

On the experian file it is still showing as an outtanding default

 

Cheers Lee

 

Gary
