    • 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 guys

 

I've seen 'explanations' as how the FOS works out the repayment after a 'successful' PPI reclaim case - but I'm afraid it's beyond my simple brain! If I lay out the actual figures, maybe somebody could do the sums for me? Please? :-)

 

In June 2005 we took out a 25 year, £89,000 loan.

To this was added a five year PPI policy costing £17,000.

So we owe, in total, £106,000.

Our repayments are c£730/month for the £89k and c£130/month for the £17k. So we pay, in total, c£860/month.

As the PPI policy only ran for five of the 25 years of the loan it expired in 2010 but we continue to pay c£130/month.

 

The FOS has found in our favour and instructed the PPI company to stump up.

 

My simple mind puts the amount we are owed as at least what we have paid, ie £11,700 - 90 months (June 2005 to December 2012) at £130. The bits I can't work out are all the stuff based around the idea of "putting us back into a situation had we not taken out the PPI" (I've has this explained as indemnification - apparently one of the cornerstones of all insurance policies. If we hadn't had the PPI, the £11,700 we have paid would have made an enormous dent in the interest we are being charged on the loan proper. So, 8% of the £11,700 is an entirely inappropriate settlement. 8% on top of the £17k premium is closer to it but still not enough), plus the compensation for the stress it caused us (£130/month 'unnecessary' payments would have been a contributory factor in forcing us into a DMP a couple of years later).

 

I understand the FOS will make us an offer which, presumably, we either accept or reject. If we had a ballpark figure of approximately what to expect we'd know if the offer is about right.

 

Can anybody help me here please?

 

If anybody out there is running an aerospace company and wants guidance on AS9100 compliance I'll return the favour!

 

Cheers,

Gaz

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...

Yeah, I've read all the explanations but I need help with the maths.

 

Once the PPI company receive the FOS directive to offer us recompense they will, no doubt, "do the maths" and make us an offer. Without knowing what to expect we have no way of knowing if their offer is an acceptable one.

 

Can someone please explain it to me - using my figures?

You will need to use this spreadsheet

 

StatIntSheet v101.xls

 

List each payment of £130 you have actually made and the sheet will do the rest for you and give you the amount of refund due.

 

As this appears to be a single premium PPI policy, the future part of the PPI loan will be removed from the account so your repayments should reduce by the £130 per month from then on.
