    • 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 all,

 

Its been a while since I posted on CAG, however I have always kept an eye on the forums regarding DCA activity!

 

I need some help, probably rather simple, however I hope someone can point my in the right direction?

 

I have been paying an old CCJ (Lloydstsb creditcard debt) to SCM since 2007 and would like to find out how much I have left owing as I have never heard from them prior to the standing order being sent up in the same year.

 

Does anyone know the contact address or telephone number for them?

 

Also, on a separate note I have never checked statements for charges / interest, so would this still be possible or even worthwhile looking into now?

 

Any help is always appreciated.

 

Many thanks.

Hi Maroondevo52,

 

Appreciate the quick response.

 

On a debt like this is it worth a SAR to them and in your opinion would it be worthwhile this far into paying it off?

 

Many thanks,

 

iwcmd.

DCA's view debtors as suckers, marks and mugs

NO DCA has ANY legal powers whatsoever on ANY debt no matter what it's Type

and they

are NOT and can NEVER  be BAILIFFS. even if a debt has been to court..

If everyone stopped blindly paying DCA's Tomorrow, their industry would collapse overnight...

And as far as I'm aware I'm pretty sure they cannot add contractual interest if they don't supply that notice? Someone more clued up than me can clarify that.

 

 

Pre litigation ....post litigation would depend on the the judgment and the original T&Cs of the agreement.

We could do with some help from you.

Isn't it the case that contractual interest on post octomber 08 judgments cannot accrue as part of the judgment anyway?

Hi All,

 

Thanks for your comments and thoughts on this matter.

 

The CCJ was back in 2005/2006 and is not on my credit file.

It was for a Lloydstsb creditcard debt £13k if I remember correctly.

I don't know f their was or still is any charges / interest applied as I have never SAR 'd them

and I have never had a statement or contact at all from them since prior to judgement.

 

I pay £100 / month (it was £150 / month until I reduced it due to personal finances in 2007).

 

So, I really have no clue as to what is left owing, how long I need to carry on paying etc.

 

Also, I had an old overdraft with Lloydstsb, which I defaulted in 2003

(around £5k after charges / interest and still taking DD for old loan) and have never been contacted by them on this,

so would it be risky to SAR Lloydstsb directly possibly stirring up a wasps nest?

 

Many thanks for any input you can give me as I do understand there are a lot of people with more pressing situations on CAG.

 

BR,

 

iwcmd.

The problem we have is that once a CCJ is in place and payments are being made

there is no accounting from most of if not all Judgement creditors.

 

This also applies to Consent/Tomlin Orders there is no accounting or statements provided.

 

I assume that this is because the debt has been wrote off and tax relief claimed on the bad debt that those payments are miscellaneous and unaccountable.

 

There is no requirement to supply statement or notice of arrears as the agreement has now ended and been replaced by the judgment.

 

Regards

 

Andy
