    • Just an update for all. I received about a letter every other week, increasing in threat levels. Then I hadn't had one for a about two weeks, then Saturday received a carbon copy of the very first letter they sent me in February. Made me laugh, rinse and repeat.

    • 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.

despite the fact there were two witnesses plus me, police have written to say they can not locate driver. I was stationery at a roundabout on my motorcycle waiting for on-coming traffic, and she drove into me from behind, causing me a few back problems and a broken gear lever on the bike. We all got her reg number. The police have written saying they can't locate her and I'm left thinking - was it her husband's 4x4 and he has simply denied that the vehicle was being at the time! Is there anything else I can do? Is it worth me applying for her name and address from DVLA? What could I do about it? I am not rich so can't pursue a private prosecution.

PLEASE give blood. Please write a Will. No, NOW!

Contact a solicitor regarding claiming for damage to your motorcycle and back injuries.

 

Make sure you Google a firm and they can act on a No Win No Fee so you won't need to fund the claim yourself.

 

If you have the registration number then you can get her insurance details but running a MIDs search.

do you mean the motor insurance bureau MIB? yes, they will be able to provide the insurance details (if any) of the car involved. then make a claim against that insurer.

If the vehicle is registered in her husbands name, DVLA will not be able to provide you with any details.

 

I find it hard to believe that Police cannot locate her? How long have they been looking. There is a form that they can serve on the R/K of the vehicle which demands they tell Police who was driving at date and time of offence, if they do not comply, they commit an offence - do you know if they have served this form? I cannot remember the name unfortunately, but I know the Police find it a handy form for finding out who was driving at time of offences etc. Remember, the onus for speeding fines etc, is on the R/K telling Police who was driving at time and date etc etc.

 

Get them to confirm they have sent this!!!

Its an NTO; Notice To The Owner. I too find it hard to believe that the police cannot trace her. I would be talking to someone higher up the ladder at the local nick for an explanation. BTW the DVLA will release details to anyone with appropriate reason to request them. However, I think they charge around £2.50 for this.

 

Also, have you passed the details onto your insurers? They should be able to trace the TP's insurance company and submit a claim to them.

I see where your coming from Sailor Sam, but original post seems to think it is the husbands 4x4. The DVLA will only hold his details and not the females. If the Police speak to him, he has to provide the dets, but if he says he cant remember etc, or doesnt know, then the offence will be failing to disclose the info, but the Police will not be able to prosecute him for the accident, the witnesses all say a female, and so the only information gained from DVLA will be the R/K info, if it is a male, it will not help the prosecution for the accident.

Well OK so she may escape prosecution BUT the RK should get hit with a £1k fine for non-disclosure. In any event, i'm surprised that the OPs insurers arn't being more pro-active. They will establish the TP's insurers so should be dealing with the matter. That's what they are paid for. Also, I don't understand why they are telling the OP his NCB will be affected when surely the claim will be met entirely by the TP. The only thing the OP may be left with is his excess.

Click here to apply for the third party's insurance details if you really want to:

I would personally instruct a solicitor and let them do the leg work though...

 

Why? Unless the OP only has third party cover, he has insurance for that!!!

For the uninsured losses?

 

A solicitor will only do what the OP can do himself. Write to the TP to ask for his excess and consequential losses to be paid and then if necessary, take the TP to court. The latter won't happen because at some stage, the TP's insurers will settle the OP's un-insured losses. Why pay a solicitor?

The OP referred to a back injury and so could claim for the personal injury element. The OP said he wanted to claim but could not afford to fund it so I recommended instructing a solicitor on a 'no win no fee' agreement. Don't really see your issue TBH.

Because of the injury, you should employ a solicitor. You'll need written witness statements describing the vehicle and if possible a description of the driver. The DVLA will provide the owners details for a fee and a good reason for wanting the data. The solicitor will sort out medical appointments and reports to value the injury claim but the key here is going to be the witnesses and their statements. Leaving the scene of an accident is a crime and you should make a formal complaint to the police with the witness evidence. If the third party refuses to provide their insurance details, this too is an offence under the Road Traffic Act and the police should be taking it more seriously, particularly in light of your injury. I trust you have sought medical help for your back. This all mounts up against the TP. If they still continue to deny involvement, despite the witness evidence then court action will be your only course of action but your witness must be available to attend to give evidence.
