    • 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.

Hi to all that read this and thank you for any information that can be offered:

 

About 6 years ago I got with a girl and we dated for a while, the girl wanted another child and asked if I would be interested in being a dad, which I replied no ( I wasnt ready financially and in the relationship) the conversation was left for a while. After a few months later she said she wanted another child and asked me to be a sperm donor and would ask nothing from me financially or as a farther role. I thought about it for some time and agreed, as long as she did not expect me to support them which she was fine about. we split up some months after and the child was born in 2008.

 

Last week I recieved a form from the CSA stating that the girl is claiming CSA and I am liable, even though we both agreed before the child was conceived.

 

Do I have a legal rights as i didn't want to be a farther? Can I refuse to pay?

 

Any help would be much appreciated as i am at wits end.

 

Mark

Mark,unfortunately if you are the bilogical father then you have to pay. There was a recent cae where a husband and wife asked a woman to recieve his sperm donation to have a chikld for them, she agreed they paid all her costs and in the end she decided to keep the baby the father is now paying £600 per month CSA. Dont want to depress you but you have been trapped http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-1375861/Child-custody-Couple-ordered-pay-surrogate-mother-monthly-baby-wont-meet.html

however if you are the childs father then I dont think there is anything worng with making a contribution to bringing up the child and also getting involved as well, the child I am sure will grow to appreciate this
