    • 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.

With all the information available on the web, im am getting all confused and would love some advice on how I should get started for a reclaim of PPI for a Firstplus loan i took out in 2006.

 

I initially took out a loan with Firstplus in April 2005. This loan was then superceded by them in Oct 2006 where i paid off the outstanding balance and took out a new loan with them. I paid the loan off in full 10 months later. Both loans to my knowledge had PPP against them. I dont have my paperwork anymore, so i called Firstplus yesterday and asked for a copy of my agreements. They have sent me the agreement for the second loan, but not the first.

 

Details were

Loan £30,000 PPP £5979 Total £35979

180 Repayments 7.2% Interest.

 

I dont know what the original loan details were for, or how much I had to payback when i paid the original loan off. Also, for the 2nd loan which i paid off in 10 months, i dont know what the redemption figure was there either.

 

My question is, how should i proceed to look into this further. Should i go back to firstplus and request for more information on the payments and how much i paid before proceeding further, or should i go in a bit more hardball and ask for an SAR. Or do I go right in at the deep end and put in a complaint letter asking for a PPI refund ?

 

Any help would be much appreciated, a know this might be a long battle, so i want to get off on the right foot.

Many Thanks

get an sar done

 

your reclaim will be alot more if you can get datails on the financed one

 

thats prob why they are being obstuctive

 

they know rolled over PPI + PPI int in the first loan

would have extra PPI + int again added in the 2nd one!!

 

normally adds good few +£100's to any reclaim.

please don't hit Quote...just type we know what we said earlier..

DCA's view debtors as suckers, marks and mugs

NO DCA has ANY legal powers whatsoever on ANY debt no matter what it's Type

and they

are NOT and can NEVER  be BAILIFFS. even if a debt has been to court..

If everyone stopped blindly paying DCA's Tomorrow, their industry would collapse overnight...

Hi there. Me again.

I have sent off my SAR request on the 16th May 2012.

However, to date i have received nothing.

I was under the impression that companies had 40 days to respond.

That took them upto the 25th June 2012.

 

I wrote a letter mid June to confirm that they had received my initial request,

and after 2 weeks they responded by saying that they received my letter on the 31st May 2012 (15 days after i posted it), and i should a response in due course.

 

To my reckoning 40 days from the 31st May is tomorrow (10th July).

 

If i receive nothing by tomorrow, what cause of action should I take ?

 

Are there any penalties for first plus (or any other company) for breaking this 40 day rule ?

 

Does it make any difference how long it takes them to respond ?

 

Any help would be appreciated, I still no know if I have a case as yet, and am trying to get all the information to hand to decide about what to do next.

 

If Firstplus are going to be difficult about even sending me basic information, i feel i am in for a bumpy ride.

 

Many thanks again
