    • Can anyone help please? A while ago I booked an apartment in France for Sunday 9th June for three nights. Today I had a message via the site that following an unspecified problem the host has to cancel our stay. I asked about a refund of what I've paid and the host indicated I need to speak to Booking.com. Booking.com have said that they won't charge me for the apartment but my understanding is that I've already paid in advance. Their website has a lot about what happens if the guest cancels but so far I haven't found anything about what happens if the host cancels. Any help would be much appreciated. HB
    • Hi Shakey, you're in a good spot being so close to SB date. Do as advised by dx, defend for sure! and make them work for it! There's no rush to settle at this stage.
    • The only option available with Money  Claim online is requesting judgement if no allocation of service  submitted. They have done that.  
    • I have received a Claim Form for a debt owed to OVO energy from 2022. Should I try and defend this claim even though it is quite recent and is it different to other debts as this is for electric and gas( I have previously had other claims discontinued) or is it the same process as before. 
    • I know what I need to do in the event of Job but there is no assurance it will be quick... I think for my mental health ill just do the Income and expenses and send the Pro rata letters to each creditor and take control this month and then I am taking control of my fate. Credit file in the end has only gotten me in trouble and more out of control.

    • 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.
