    • 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.

how old and what is it?

 

typically 'old' stuff needs to the chipsets to be installed first before the display drivers.

 

goto the makers website and download the install manual and check.

DCA's view debtors as suckers, marks and mugs

if no joy, I personally go to device manager, find the properties and find the PCI vendor ID number of the graphics adapter, then google it and see what results other people have had.

If in doubt, contact a qualified insured legal professional (or my wife... she knows EVERYTHING)

 

Or send a cheque or postal order payable to Reclaim the Right Ltd.

Hi and thanks again for the responses... the laptop is an old Tiny A535 SiS mother board with AMD4 processor...I have actualy resolved the problem now, via downloading software and driver from SiS website.... website offers free scan of system and re-load of upto date drivers and software for your type of system....FANTASTIC....don't come across many companies that 'll do that nowadays.

I hope this is of some assistance to those who are having or might have some of the issues that ive had !!! in the right hand corner of the page is a box that says " Idetify model number of SiS products, click on that and follow prompts, once it has loaded scan it will give a list of all installed and misssing software/drivers, all of which are "upto date".

Best Regards.

I'm not familiar with Driver Magician but if it's similar to DriverMax, it should be avoided. DriverMax is simply a collection of all the drivers downloaded from users of the service, worldwide. Drivers offered as a match will often cause conflicts, they are highly unlikely to have come from or been tested on your specific system.

Manufacturers drivers /software are always the safest option, if available.

The SIS site is the way all these technical sites should be. I recently upgraded a PC with a new Gigabyte motherboard precisely because they have a similar system. Their site scans your whole computer and downloads exactly which updated drivers or software it needs or tells you where to get them ........ Bliss.

There is one very good solution, if you donot know much about the model of your hardware and want to find its driver. If you are using Microsoft Windows XP or above just start Windows updates and select custom from the selection manu. After scanning click on the hardware tab and you will find the drivers for your hardware. This method will work with about 80% of the hardware.
