    • 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,

 

First post so be gentle with me!

 

I sent a SAR request to Lloyds for all my personal accts and business accts before Xmas. They have missold PPI to me in the past, but I need the agreements to collate how much and when. Everything relating to my personal accts came on Day 40, with the following letter->

 

"Thank you for contacting LLoyds TSB Bank plc to request your personal information held in automated systems and manual files.

 

I am pleased to enclose the information, which has been compiled in accordance with the act.

 

We are still collating information with regards to your business accounts and this will be issued as soon as it is ready. I am sorry for the delay.[...]

 

Your entitlement under the Act is to your personal data, rather than photocopies of all documents. The personal data we hold is enclosed."

 

They give me a phone number to call if I have any queries, but funnily enough anytime I call I get a 'there's no-one available, please call back' message.

 

A few questions:

1. What do I do now that I'm still waiting for the business acct stuff? I've looked at the ICO site and they want evidence of chasing up the bank, but I'm not getting anywhere on the phone with them - is a protracted letter exchange the only way to get this moving?

2. What IS my entitlement with SARS? Am I not entitled to photocopies of my loan apps etc? (they took my tenner!)

3. Any other advice?

 

My feeling is that they are stalling with sending out the business stuff because they know what's coming. What can I do to move this forward?

 

Any help would be gratefully received.

Hi

 

For the information that is now out of time i.e. 40 calendar days send them a failed SAR letter here as this is something best not done on the ppohine as you need a paper trail

 

http://www.consumeractiongroup.co.uk/forum/content.php?593-Data-Protection-Act-Non-Compliance-Template-Letters

 

Some banks do not send details of the agreements as a result of a SAR request while others do. You could add a paragraph into the failed SAR letter that you haven't received details of agreements and request them to send them to you. Alternatively, if any of the accounts are still live, you could get the details via a CCA request...template in the CAG library, the link to which is at the top of every CAG page in green.

 

As a sole trader they should really be treating this as personal data so normal DPA/SAR rules apply.

 

Some members have found that a call to the bank branch can yield the information from the agreements over the phone.

 

Try all angles

Firstly, so sorry for the monosyllabic 'yes' earlier - I really wanted to reply to you before I left the house this morning, but I had two toddlers making unending demands for breakfast so I had to be quick!

 

Thanks for your help with this - I will definitely get that letter off to them to chase them up for being beyond their 40 days. I'll also try to give the branch a call or my business banking manager a call to get more information too.

 

Will keep you posted!

 

Many thanks for all your help - it is greatly appreciated.
