    • 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.

Curly Bob,

 

You are not being thick. Banks and other credit companies set up things like PPI to be as complicated as possible, so the average Joe cannot understand it.

 

Unfortunately the text in your link is just too small to read.

 

Please try and repost with larger text.

 

If all the necessary information is there you may not need to send a SAR.

 

 

According to the FOS guidelines in order to put the customer back in the position they would have been had the PPI not been mis-sold:

 

1) The bank must refund all premiums paid under the agreement plus any associated interest. ie: Monthly repayments x no of repayments.

 

2) Pay the customer at 8% simple interest per annum on each monthly repayment from the date of repayment to the date of settlement.

 

You should have known this claiming that you used to work for the FOS.

Bob,

 

Thanks for reposting and as you suggested there is not enough information on the letter to do proper calculations.

 

Normally I would agree with you that the way forward is a SAR, but I fear RBS will just come back saying we do not hold any records as it is more than 6 years.

 

Do you have another way to obtain the information we need?

 

1) Amount of loan and/or total charge for ppi

2) Interest rate charged

3) Number of monthly repayments

 

I realise it is a long shot, but do you happen to have a copy of the loan agreement?

 

Or perhaps you could check on your bank account how much the monthly repayments were?

 

Also suspect you would have been charged PPI on the consolidated loan you took out in 2004 which they have made no mention of refunding.

 

Good luck

Bob,

 

I can help you with the calculations for the consolidated loan. Just need to know what date this was taken out.

 

With the first loan, do you know how much you borrowed and what the interest rate was?

Bob,

 

I am a bit pressed for time at the moment but will take at look at the calculations for you asap.

 

Looks like you have a fair idea what you are doing there though, just make sure you calculating the 8% on each monthly repayment from the date of each payment until the date they repay you.

 

Now as it is impossible to know if or even when they will settle, I would use 30th April 2011 for the purpose of this calculation.
