    • 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.

Well well well, almost 1yr to the day since my last post and guess who has another letter from Aktiv Kapital - this time offering a "New Deal" where I only have to pay £800, how nice of them!

 

Again I thought this was done with after last time, I just want to check if the advice given is still valid?

 

Should I call Yes Loans? Yes Car Credit? Aktiv Kapital?

Should I be writing to them or calling them (remembering the golden rule)

 

I am 100% going to try and get my money back - this thing needs to be put to bed as I have let it drag too long thinking it was done with, only to have the debt pop up again and again.

 

So could someone please point me clearly as to what steps I should take, and what I should be saying / asking in regards to following that plan.

 

Thanks in advance!

 

PS. dx: I have re-read your posts, and they are still like riddles to me haha!

To claim unfair charges/PPI etc you would need to get full statements from them (SAR) and then fill in a spreadsheet to work out what they actually owe you. Then you send a specific letter.

I'm not claiming back PPI or charges, I would be claiming back all money paid by me upto the point the broke the agreement (by taking the car by force without a court order).

 

I was also told in this thread about the "deposit fiddle" on my agreement which basically makes it null and void, but not sure how this affects me claiming back my money as per the agreement?

 

I'm just confused as exactly what I need to do, in simple terms, to get the ball rolling on getting my money back - as there are so many things you should/shouldn't do and in the correct order etc.

Hey dx (riddler lol!)

 

OK so I should contact Yes Car Credit...or Yes Car Loans...or Aktive Kapital (the orig finance company)?

What should I be saying on the phone / putting in the letter?

 

Please tell me in full sentences as I find it hard to follow your style of writing, especially when I know one wrong move / phonecall/letter can cause so much trouble.

 

Thanks in advance.

Thanks dx,

 

So I after reading that I think I should send Aktiv Kapital a SAR - and not phone them?

Aktiv are the company listed on the new letters I am recieving.

 

I still have all the letters from the last solicitors (Buchanan Clark and Wells) that tried this, and after I requested documents and sent the £1 PO I got it returned saying they wouldn't bother me again - but I don't think that was a SAR as that is £10...

Thank you mate, so just to confirm - I should send a SAR to Provident (as per your link) quoting the policy numbers etc from my agreement?

 

Once they reply is that all the ammo I need to reclaim monies paid due to the duff agreement / taking it without a court order.

I'm also dealing with Yes Car Credit and I sent my SAR request to Direct Auto Financial Services, PO Box 1135, Bradford, BD1 9PU. They sent me a CD with all of the information I needed, including the agreement and a statement with all the payments that had been made. My agreement looks pretty much like yours, with the deposit taken off the insurance as well. It took them nearly all the required 40 days.

We bought a car from them in 2002. It was completely paid off in 2006, but we are trying to reclaim the PPI and the other warranties that we were told we had to have when we bought it. I've already sent off the FOS questionnaire to them with the spreadsheet. They've got until the beginning of next week to come back to me. I'm just waiting for the letter now to tell me 'no' as, reading a lot of the other threads on here, that's exactly what they will do. As they weren't regulated back then, it can't go to the FOS, so it looks like it will have to go to court. Just been searching around for the legal argument that I need.

Thanks for the info darrenfan - very similar cases indeed, hope we can both get our money back.

 

I'm now confused as to how you are dealing with Direct Auto Finance as dx posted a link to a thread saying they no longer exist?

 

Who should I send my SAR to?

Should I completely ignore the letters from Aktiv Kapital?

 

Thanks.
