    • 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

Just wondered if a loan account falls into arrears and goes into a DMP, whether the PPI payment is still included on the debt or is taken off?. I have a 2 loans that ended up being paid off via a DMP. Admittedly I do not have all the paperwork as I couldn't cope with the amount of debt at the time but on the paperwork I have it doesn't seem to have been cancelled.

I am looking to claim back PPI but I'm not sure if I only paid it until the account went into a DMP or if the entire cost of the loan and PPI was sent to a debt recovery agency.

Hello there.

 

The PPI wouldn't automatically drop off the amount of the debt. If the PPI is set up as an ongoing monthly payment you should halt those payments as it's likely the PPI wouldn't be viable should you default on the contractual instalments. In addition, if you're looking to reclaim it then you should clearly not continue to pay it anyway.

 

Any PPi reclaim could be used to offer a Full & Final settlement to your creditors. If you need to try and get further documentation from the creditors you could consider a SAR?

I have already paid off the debt s2 I can only assume I paid the PPI premiums as well as I never asked to take it off as I didn't realise I had it. I finished the DMP in December 2009 but the loans were from 2002 and 2004 as well as 2 credit with Barclays and Egg so the time factor maybe an issue.

 

Thanks for the advice, and I like your avatar, one of my favourite albums!

So long as you can get the info you need then it's more than possible to reclaim PPI from over 6 years ago. The key problem is that you may find that the lenders may not supply you with info under a SAR beyond 6 years. Worth a go though!

 

Nice to have people with a decent taste in music on CAG, there doesn't seem to be many of us haha :)

As much as most hate it, I'm an Electric Cafe girl myself!

I've sent off an SAR to Canada Operations, not holding out much hope with the Egg Loan and credit card but the Barclays Loan is much easier as I only just finished paying that and I still have some statements on the Barclaycard so I can at least ask for the money I can prove. I've sent the forms off but I stated I did not need PPI because I get full pay from my employer if I am off sick. If they try and fob me off I will then say I paid PPI but there was no way for me to claim after entering a DMP even though I paid for it.

  • 5 weeks later...

Hi guys, just to let you know that I received a cheque from Barclays this morning for just over £3000. Can't believed they rolled over so quickly with no fuss. It only took around 6 weeks and even so my case wasn't so straight forward as I entered a DMP also. I can only encourage people to stick to their guns and keep on persevering.

Just on the flip side however,

 

I also found out today that Barclays have trashed my credit file with incorrect information with regards to a default on the loan which I recieved the PPI refund.

 

Even though I have paid it in full my credit file still remains at default so overnight my credit rating has dropped from excellent to fair.

 

I have posted a new thread in the credit reference agancy sub forum so if anyone has any info I would really appreciate it. Thanks.
