    • 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.

Quick question.

 

The amount we are claiming on this Abbey account is less than the overdraft (claiming approx £900, OD is £1750)

 

When they refund the charges, will they be awkward and demand the rest of the OD back?

Hi,

 

MCOL still showing 'Issued'.

 

Just downloaded the basic court bundle (thinking ahed). Think I'm going to be totally stuck when it comes to doing it, have Nooo clue what to do with it or what any of it means. Cant even see where to 'adapt' it to my own circumstances...

 

REALLY hope it doesnt get that far, although from reading threads seems theres a high chance it will :(

 

Also, if I ever managed to work out the 'bundle', can I claim anything back for costs of the giant amount of paperwork/printer ink?

 

This bundle thing really putting the s**** up me tho, cant see me getting any further than the AQ.

 

I must be really dense, as everyone else seems to be ok with the bundle!?

 

ok, im done moaning....(for now)

I would like to make a complaint against Abbey for not sending my 'Microfiche' statements.

 

I have looked at the online complaint form HERE but sections 6 - 10 I dont know what to put/how to word it.

 

Has anyone else had problems..? If so what did you write in these sections?

 

:-x

Hi Fuzzy, This is what I put for bcard, cant remember where I stole it from. just amend accordingly

Section 6

On the xx/xx/xx I made a S.A.R - (Subject Access Request) to Abbey requesting details of transactions and charges levied on my account for the previous six years. Additionally I requested that where there has been any event in my account history over this period which has required manual intervention by any member of there staff, or any other person, that I would require disclosure of any indication or notes which have either caused or resulted in that manual intervention or other evidence of that manual intervention in relation to my business with them. They responded with some limited information in the form of statements from xx/xx/xx onwards.

They claim that information prior to xx/xx/xx is exempt from the Data Protection Act as 'Statements are copied onto microfiche in date order and more than one customer statement may be held on an individual film of microfiche. These statements are not stored by reference to account number of customers name and are not "readily accessible" within the meaning of the Data Protection Act. These statements are not retained in a relevant filing system and therefore do not fall within the class of documents to be produced pursuant to a subject access request. They can be obtained from out Customer Services Dept at a cost of £x per statement'.

I believe that they are erroneous in their assertion that microfiche is not a relevant filing system and that their archives are indeed subject to the 40 day ruling of Data Protection Act disclosure. Accordingly Barclaycard have not yet complied with their obligations under the Data Protection Act 1998.

Section 7 - date of fob off letter

Section 9 - All relevant documents - copy of your SAR and Abbey fob off plus any additional correspondance you entered into regarding mfiche

Secion 10 - List them

 

that should do it

Dear Sir or Madam,

 

Re: Your Ref TS6B03/BCT

Claim Ref 6QZ83014

 

I am in receipt of your letter dated 24/11/2006, outlining that you need details of my schedule of claim, showing how the amount is made up with reference to each charge.

You are already in receipt of this schedule, as I forwarded it to yourselves with my ‘Letter Before Action’ dated 28/10/2006.

 

Another schedule of charges is attached with this letter as you requested.

 

A copy of my schedule of charges will be forwarded to you by fax and also by post.

 

Yours faithfully,

I have received the MICROFICHE!!!!!!!!!! (only took 3 months to get them lol)

 

ok, I have checked the 'estimated charges' and was only about £10 out - Estimated total £729.76, Actual total £734.00.

 

What do I do about this now? I assume Abbey will 'Defend' any day now...

 

Will I have to send out amended schedules as I said I would, and to whom?
