    • 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.

Court Bundles have been sent off on recieved by both Barclays litigation team and Northampton County Court (Royal Mail Special Delivery).

 

Now considering the Court Date is a mere 17 days to go, anyone in the Northants area fancy a morning out? Coffe, tea and biscuits will be provided.

 

servercountdown A count down to the hour I'm due up in court against Barclays... Knowing my luck, they'll turn up as well.

In sixteen days time, I'm due up in court, just wondering if anyone on these forums (more importantly Barclays) due in court sooner?

 

As I am hoping to hear from Barclays sometime in the next week. Failing that, who is the best person to phone in Barclays litigation team to get an out of court settlement?

 

Cheers....

 

PS. Since no one has replied to coffee and biscuits for a morning out in Northampton, I'll throw in lunch too.... :)

hi hunny!

 

rebecca connelly is the best person to speak to in the litigations and disputes dept, someone has a number but it escapes me who. Just go through to the main number and ask to be put through to her, they should either give you a number or transfer you???

 

Ill keep an eye on your thread see whats going on.... Cxx

Time to update peeps about my claim, which was due to go to court on the 23rd January.

 

Barclays have sent a letter giving me the full amount claimed, so time to chalk up another one to the Bank Forum, time to update the survey, and to make a donation to this wonderful cause.

 

Hold tight everyone, you will win in the end - even I thought at times I wouldn't.

 

ChesterB, no need to keep everything crossed now, money has been repaid! (Your other half can breathe a sign of relief now... ;) ) (I mean you can walk properly without falling over, infact live normally now.) xxx
