    • 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.

Hello all,

 

I just have a quick question on PPI if you would be kind enough to help me

 

I have had a mortgage on my property with RBS for 7 years. Does anyone know if I may have been charged PPI for this as I have no longer got the original policy documents from all that time ago? (I know you wont know about my specific arrangement with RBS - im just asking if its possible that I have been paying it in my monthly repayments - I dont believe I ever paid an up front lump sum at least)

 

I have recently requested a copy of the original agreement etc from RBS but not yet had a response.

 

Aside from potential for PPI I was also hit with a "higher lending charge" of £4k because my deposit was small - this I would imagine there is probably nothing I can do about, but I am wondering if anyone knows otherwise? It just seems to me that if people are reclaiming PPI etc then I guess it is feasible that such an unfair charge isnt right either?

 

Any advice on the above would be great. Thanks all.

Hi

 

The higher lending charge isn't a claimable item...at least I've never seen one successfully claimed.

 

If you didn't pay single premium PPI i.e. added to the loan at the outset then it would have been a separate monthly payment to your mortgage.

 

If you can get a copy of the agreement then that will confirm or deny whether you had single premium PPI.

 

If not you will have to check your bank statements to see if a second payment was going out alongside your mortgage on or about the same date. This would likely be to a third party.

Hi, thanks for the fast reply

 

I have written to them using a template from moneysavingexpert requesting a copy of my original agreement with them from 6-7 years ago and enclosing the £1 payment they might have wanted to provide it. Sent it recorded delivery and they got it a few days ago.

 

I have gone through my old bank statements online from those times, and can see no seperate debits coming out alongside the mortgage.

 

Guess its just a matter of waiting for them to send me that copy of the old agreement before I know how I can proceed?

For info we had MPPI on our RBS mort which we did claim and got back. Ours showed as a completely separate direct debit which initially said it was for direct line insurance, then later RBS insurance. TBH if I hadn't known what it was I may well have assumed it was car or house insurance on the statements. It certainly was linked to the mortgage and was paid on a completely different day of the month.
