    • 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.

This site is soooo wonderful. Had so much ***t from Lloyds over the years. I have sent off my data protection letter and I am reading all the threads, FAQ's and anything else I can get my hands on. It's about time that bank customers had the opportunity to say "what you are doing is wrong, you cannot do this to me".

 

My 5 year loan run for 4 years without a problem. 6 months ago they started charging me £25 a month as they said there was no direct debit set up on the account. Can I set it up over the phone, no that is too ridiculous. Whose authority have they to take the money if there is no direct debit, appartently they don't need your authority. So what is the point of the direct debit in the first place?!!! They said they had refunded the money, nope, there it was on my statement again at the end of the month. On checking my statements apart from the usual £30 here and there at one point they charged me £60 for a returned DD. So far, I'm claiming £460 but I am a couple of years short of statements.

 

I have also sent a DPL to Barclarycard and my claim will be £180 both without the interest calculated. I'll calculate the interest when it gets to that stage.

 

I can't thank you enough for giving me this opportunity to be able to do this.

Sent my Data Protection letter on 11th August with cheque. No acknowledgement ever received, cheque remains uncashed. However, I have received statements of charges for the past 6 years. I was expecting actual bank statements. Does anyone know if the statements will be sent separately or not at all?

 

Getting geared up for Stage 2.

hi if you sent the template DPA it states a list of charges or altenativley statements. What you have will be fine as long as it lists your charges.:D

Hi I've issued my claim and ever since they have been ringing me twice a day. My account is still open and there is £778OD (as they have removed my overdraft facility) and they want it back. I did set up a direct debit for £10.00 a month to show willing but I don't know what to do about the phone calls.

 

Has anyone been in the same position and if so, how did they deal with it?

 

 

 

 

Claim number: 6TW02404

Issued: 31.10.06

Court: Trowbridge County Court

Charges: £1,1,042.40

Interest: £416.95

Costs: £0.00

Total Claim: £1459.35
