    • 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.

They didnt give any headings on account 1 so presumed it was date then balance Calculated Interest, Interest rate used and PPI Paid

 

Account 2 date, Balance ,Calculated Interest, Rate used and PPI Paid what the last 2 cloumns are I haven't a clue

The first column on each must be thier transaction numbers I think .

Sorry IMS interest was stopped in an agreement on 19/11/2011 on number 1 account and 19/09/2011 on the number 2 account sorry should have told you earlier. I have tried to fathom out thier workings but just hit a brick wall . Cards are still running but no interest being charge as my friend reached an agreement through ill health.

Hi IMS wondering how things were with these workings. I have been trying all over the weekend to see where they get thier figures from . There is a gap on the no 2 account where the balance was at nil I wondered if that made a difference. I cant even fathom out 1 line. I dont really wnt to accept thier offer if its wrong I know they have been wrong before . Really appreciate your help !!

Hi IMS

What an idiot I am they have sent the balance on the account the interest and the PPI paid but not thier workings what they have offered is on Acc 1 PPI Charged !1244.12,Contractual interest £989.72 8 % Interest £760.43 Total 2994.27

 

ACC 2 PPI Premiums £720.09, Interest Charged on Card 581.78 8% 430.72 Total £1732.59

 

I am going to do a spreadsheet with the correct APR for each Line to see what the difference is.

 

Sorry if I have wasted your time, I might need you to look at new s/sheets

Good morning I have reconstructed the spreadsheets with each individual APR rather than an average as stated on thier breakdowns and still am not near thier offer acc 1 =£4113.15 as opposed to £2994.27 Offered and account 2= £2456.43 as opposed to £1732.59 offered . Should I go back to them and ask for the actual workings . The lists they sent were just of the monthly balance PPI and interest rate which I already have. The compound interest runs rather short or should I just accept it any advice would be welcome I used the Compound Interest Calculator regulatory Method

I have had the same, and look for a thread started by I think emmtay on the same subject. They have not taken me seriously at all until I did one simple thing. Companies house search, directors home address and then s234 (not sure on number at mo) application to registrar as they did not reply to reasonable request and correspondence to the service addresses. Had to go though registrar ( as I agree for security as a bank) rather than direct (though I had very ****ed off direct replies from two directors) and they started to promise by email from reasonably senior that it would be dealt with. However they have not kept up bargain so back to registrar as it is now 18th .

I have put some of their figures into the spreadsheet and come up with different figures for the contractual interest that they quote.

 

I think you need to contact them and get the to tell you exactly how they have worked out the contractual interest giving the date that they calculated it to.

 

Tell them that you are not prepared to accept their offer until they have provided detailed figures that enable you to check whether the offer is correct or not. Tell them that you are not simply going to accpet their assurances that they are correct, you want to see a set of figures that can be thoroughly checked.
