    • 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,

Newby here so here goes,

 

I had a catalogue debt a few years ago, (8yrs)

 

I went to cab who helped me and

 

I was paying them the min payment of a £1 per month

 

I never ever missed a payment and

 

the catalogue company kept putting their payments up and I said I couldn't pay them and they kept ignoring my letters but i kept paying the £1,

 

they put their payments up to £112.00 and I didn't pay them

 

the debt went sky high as they added interest and missed payment fees it's been a nitemare,

 

I kept paying the £1( last payment was July 2012) hoping it would go to court

 

but instead I got a letter to say the debt had been taken over by moorcroft debt

 

I looked at my credit file and it as been added by the catalogue company as a default,

 

tbh I screwed the moorcroft letters up as I was annoyed,

 

last Thursday(15.05.3013) a moorcroft collector turned up at my door,

( i didnt answer so he put a card through)

 

I sent them a letter about coming to my door without a appointment ,

 

don't know what else to do now just waiting for next letter to come,

 

I'm so annoyed

You should really put in a claim to have all of those penalty charges refunded together with the associated interest.

 

Have you got all of your statements.

 

Did CAB not do anything regarding asking the lender to freeze interest?

You will need the statements of account to work out what charges and interest you are going to reclaim.

 

If there are going to be these charges on the statements you are missing then you will need to SAR the catalogue company to get them.

 

You will need this spreadsheet to work out the claim amount.

 

CISheet v101.xls

 

When you have this information your claim will go to the catalogue company.

They will have 40 days to comply. If they do not then they are in breach of the Data Protection Act and you can sue to force them to comply.

 

While waiting for the SAR response, dig out the statements which you do have.

Write to moorcroft and tell them to bugger off. If they are only acting on behalf of a creditor, they cant do anything. At all.

 

Who is the named company on your credit file in relation to this debt?

Ignore Moorcroft. If they come calling again, TELL them to leave or you will call the police. They have zero rights. Its the same as a random person knocking on your door and demanding money. You wouldnt pay them would you?
