    • 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.

John, both of the emails you have received are standard emails. I have received both !!

 

1st - WDA. I would suggest you complete their I&E statement but dont give them bank statements. I did the same and got a repayment plan fairly quickly. I politely emailed them the I&E stating that whilst I was not to obliged to supply them with this information I was doing it to show my willingness to come to a compromise. I did point out that they certainly did not ask for such detailed information when applying for the loan so did not understand why they needed it when trying to repay it. Payment plan was promptly set up !!

 

2nd - ****ty Sterling. I got the same crap about not communicating in anyway other than telephone. I challenged this and eventually got an email from a named person ( I can give you her addy if you want to contact directly ) Dont expect an easy ride with them though. The last email I got was to say that "they dont do repayment plans unless you have entered a debt management plan"

 

I await their response to me challenging this stating they cannot discriminate between those in a DMP and those who cant for employment reasons. Also remended them that they cannot refuse payment from me under OFT guidelines. I await their response.

 

The only good thing about SS is they dont not charge daily interest, just a 1 off fee of £59 when you default. they are VERY slow to reply to emails ( I mean days ! ) but your safe in the knowledge that you are not accruing crazy daily fees.

 

Hope this helps.

Don't hand over any bank account or card details as they will keep trying to take small amounts from your account until such time they hit on your payday then take the lot regardless. If you cant get them to accept a payment plan yourself use a company that will deal with them on your behalf enter into a debt managment plan then cancal any cards that you feel they have details of and be very whary when appling on line again because if you use one of their affilate companies or a broker linked to them they will use that infomation to take money from you
