    • 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 there.

 

You can go bankrupt wheneever you wish, either before or after you hand the house back. Since you took out the mortgage before the dtae oft he bankruptcy order any shortfall would be included. What you must not do, though, is sign a 'deed of acknowledgement' - which has the potential to make you liable for the shortfall debt after the bankruptcy. In short, never sign anything a lender tries to get you to sign unless you know what it is - or that you've sought further advice.

 

If you have any further questions regarding the process please give me a shout!

 

Seq.

can anyone tell me if selling my home can all the costs for doing this come off the house sale? Obviously we have no money and dont really know what we are doing!

 

Yes, that's possible. You may also see if you lender has an 'assisted sale scheme'.

company If you are going to go down that route, be sure to include absolutely everything, as you can still be chased in 6 years for things that you forgot to include.

 

That's not right. Any debt would be included so long as it's a debt which is 'provable' in bankruptcy. So even if there are debts missed off the application they would still be included.

Hello there. Put it in writing that unless they accept the F&F settlement you'll be petitioning for your bankruptcy. It should hopefully show them that you mean business. Whether or not they accept is totally down to them of course, but it's certainly worth a go for sure :)

That is generally the way that creditors update credit files as far as F&F settlements go.

 

Experian have reliably informed me that a 'P' flag doesn't have much bearing on credit scoring via potential lenders although it's likely to flag up with them - and it could trigger manual intervention rather than a lender using an automated process. This could cause difficulties as some lenders just don't really bother with manual credit scoring. So, I guess the answer is dependant on whether or not you're interested in taking out credit going forward.
