    • 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.

Help, I received this letter today from mucky hall. I had a wonga loan for £400 in 2011 I couldnt afford to pay it back and buried my head in the sand. I had all the usual threats, default notice and a letter telling me it had been sold to mucky hall. I got the usual threats off them, I have not heard anything for around 6 months until today. This doesn't sound like the usual threats and now I'm worried. What does it mean and what should I do. mucky hall are not on my credit report just wonga it shows default in december 2011 though the amount is now showing as £917. There is no way I can afford to pay this off and no chance of maiking any reasonable offer.

It's a regular threat-o-gram. Note the use of if maybe, could etc etc. It also breaches OFT guideline son debt collection, and you must make formal complaints about it.

Thats the whole point of a threatogram. To make you believe it is an offocial legal notice, when in reality it has no more power than your toilet roll.

The OFT. Just email them and let them know whats going on. They dont take on individual complaints, but do take notice of them when it comes to renewing their licence.

Hi Gunner,

 

I've received the exact same threatogram dressed up as something fancier. Looks like Mucky Hall are trying to get their petty cash tin filled by Xmas party time.

 

I've been telling them for months if they believe I owe this (Over £900 of it are charges) to take me to court, but they go quiet for 6 months or so, then start again

 

I am getting fed up with them now so am taking renigademps advice and drafting a letter to send to OFT. The only thing is am I right in thinking that they (Mucky) can't put a default marker on my credit file? I have never been defaulted by wonga and in fact this disappeared off my noddle file over a year ago, (never showed on equifax and I cant remember if it showed on experian)

I obviously don't wanna sound like a numpty when I complain so would appreciate it if somebody can confirm this please.

 

Gunner, don't let them worry you, just keep coming to CAG for advice

Also can a default be added nearly two and half years after they say you failed to make a repayment? I thought it was six months but am not at all savvy with DNs.... Thanks

Hi up 2, wonga defaulted me in 2011 I would love mucky hall to try to default it now. I will be complaining to the OFT. I hope their champagne fund runs out.

I'm slowly trying to sort my debts out this site is a great help. I have no doubt I will need more advice as time goes on.

This site is great, I was a quivering wreck when I found it and the advice and (genuine, non-judgmental) support is fantastic.

 

Wonga never defaulted me, but this also goes back to 2011. Mucky hall must be working in date order lol.

 

I'll also be complaining once I've found the answers to my questions. Keep us updated with how you get on :madgrin:
