    • 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,

 

I had a £20k loan with the Halifax.

 

I took out the loan in June 2004,

It must have been when I remortgaged from the Abbey and had the£ 20k as a seperate loan.

 

I came across this fantastic site by chance,

and after scrolling through different threads,

decided to call Halifax to see if there was any PPI on the loan.

 

Incidently, I paid off the loan in full in December 2005.

 

They were quite helpful on the phone, and informed me that there was indeed PPI linked to the loan.

 

Within a week, I have recieved a letter saying they are sorry to hear of my complaint, and are " gathering information and documentation relevant to my complaint ".

 

They have requested I fill in a F.O.S. designed Questionnaire. They say they need as much information as possible to assess my complaint.

 

The questionnaire asks lots of awkward questions which I am not sure I know the answers to.

 

For instance:

I can't remember what job I was doing.

Whether I was self-employed or not.

What I used the money for, dates of when I took out the Insurance, who sold it to me, etc, etc.

 

I called Halifax today to request some basic information.

 

I wanted to know the start / finish dates of the loan.

What the payments were.

What PPI premiums I paid.

They said they hold no records over six years other than the start / finish dates.

I borrowed 20k in June 2004.

Paid the settlement figure of £19896 in December 2005.

 

I would like help on the following please:

 

1. Do I have to fill in this questionnaire? I don't want to jeopardise my claim by putting incorrect info.

2. I think I may have been self-employed, will this affect my claim?

3. Does my Wife being employed be detrimental to my claim?

4. What PPI would I have paid on the loan? Estimate would suffice please.

5. What can I claim back and how?

 

Thanks to this site and its fantastically knowledgeable members,

I have started the balls rolling on lots of other sharks. Barclaycard, Abbey, Halifax Credit Cards. Abbey Loan, Studio, Littlewoods, Gus, Arrow Global, and a big pain at this moment, Gmac and/or Paratus.

 

Many thanks in advance for your help guys.

 

Really hope you can help.

 

Vaz.

Thanks dx. I have sent them SAR for my Credit Card, but not the loan. Will the information I require be included in my request? They have cashed the £10 cheque I sent them last Monday.

Regards

Thanks dx,

please forgive me for being a liitle wet behind the ears on this great site.

 

Am I correct in assuming the information I require about the ppi on the loan will be contained in all the information they hold about my financial relationship with Halifax?

 

This info will of course be forwarded to me within 40 days?

 

Regards

 

Vaz.
