    • 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.

On checking what records I have it is possible that I could have paid about 150 to 200 pounds in token payments in 2008 and

nothing since then,

 

the disputed was going with Egg prior to and during 2008.

Hi all

Looks like in for round three,

 

I have been re-issued with a default notice for the full out standing debt from the DCA in their name.

 

it say if I don,t pay full amount by such a date then they will report me to the CRA,

 

this has already been reported to CRA back in 2006 by OC.

 

and then start legal action,

 

can they do this again.

 

how can i be in breach of an agreement which was terminated then dragged through 2 court cases both I won.

 

Any thoughts on best way forward.

thanks

Which DCA has sent this?

 

IMO I wouldn't make any contact with them for the time being, ''if'' they do decide to mark your credit file with a default, then you would be in a very strong position to take them to court and sue them for defamation.

 

If you can scan & post it up, removing all identifiers, then it would be good to see exactly how it has been worded.

Who ever heard of someone getting a job at the Jobcentre? The unemployed are sent there as penance for their sins, not to help them find work!

and, poss a counter claim for damages re all that has happened prior to this new dn, as if no dn prior (as the J accepted) then they weren't entitled to terminate etc before?

Thanks for your reply.

 

I will try and upload letter with header and footer removed also any id info.

 

This was original an Egg card,

that's who put default on CRA and

 

Egg Terminated the agreement at the same time.

 

It was then purchase by Aktiv that's who I have been to court with twice now,

 

going again I think would be an Abuse of Process.

that's not the real letter

show us a scan of it.

 

its layout is also important

 

**you can post up images/letters by this method immediately..you don't need 10 posts**

.

set your default scan page size to A4 less than 300DPI [150 will do]

scan the required letters/agreements/sheets - as a picture[jpg] file

don't forget you can use a mobile phone or a digital camera too!!

'

BUT......

ENSURE: remove all pers info inc. barcodes etc

but leave all monetary figures and dates.

Headers and Footers have been removed by the OP. This looks like a compliant DN.

Any Letters I Draft are N0T approved by CAG and no personal liability is accepted.

It would be the other way round default then terminate.

That looks nothing like any DN I have ever seen??

 

If that is a DN then if the amount they are claiming you need to repay shouldn't be the total amount owing, it should ONLY be the arrears accrued.

 

Also what is the date?

It MUST state a physical date ie. dd/mm/yyyy it cannot state ''within 14 days from the date of this letter.

 

That definitely looks like a suspect amateur DN to me..

there is a date for when the balance is to be by, ie before 16th April 2014.

Letter was dated 25th March.

sent first class.

 

the expiration of 18 days is for when they will report me to CRA.

 

The copy of the letter is what I received

 

I have only took of Header and footer and took out account No and amount.

 

This was drawn up and sign by the Legal & Compliance Officer from the DCA,

Hi

thanks for the info.

 

It seem clear that the default notice is for a live agreement and not used for one that is terminated,

 

I also see it states notice of 28 days should be given before default to CRA, not 18 as in default notice.

 

Now would it be better to reply to the DCA and tell them that the Default notice is invalid

and why I think so including you can not default the same debt twice.

 

Doing this could they just change this one and send out another.

 

Or should I wait and let them take me back to Court and counterclaim for damages,

tis a difficult one

 

as has been accepted by the J there was no dn as required,

then technically it shouldn't have been terminated etc.

 

hence the idea of a poss counter re damages.

which things being equal cld negate their claim entirely,

if accepted. that cld be testing the water?

 

then there is the abuse/estoppel issues you mention following the prior dismissal.

 

should you reply?

not sure.

 

could do so saying for eg their dn is not accepted?

 

reminding them of the previous failed attempt at litigation,

and if they make a claim you'll defend and make yr own claim?

 

best wait for further opinion though.

Thanks Ford.

No not look at no win no fee but will check it out, anyway I will see if any other advise come along, but what ever, I will defend again if I have too, if that get away with this then it just means they will keep taking others to court until a judge agree with them, I shall keep you updated on out come.
