    • 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.

Checked my Noddle credit report, and there is an entry by MMF for a "Student loan"

 

First up, I do not recognise the account or the balance, and secondly I have never taken a student loan.

 

What is my course of action? Do I send a formal complaint to MMF instructing them to remove this entry from my credit files? Advice please. Image attached...

It's likely a PDL or a catalogue card or similar. MMF seem to think they can mark a debt however they feel like and even change default dates and amounts for their own gain.

 

You could add a notice of correction to it on the CRA, while getting a full complaint to the compliance manager at MMF ( if they even have one). The CRA will then ask MMF to explain and give more details.

Any advice i give is my own and is based solely on personal experience. If in any doubt about a situation , please contact a certified legal representative or debt counsellor..

Would a leter such as this be sufficient?

 

FORMAL COMPLAINT

 

This notice is with regard to a default entry made to my credit files. The entry is as follows:

 

Motormile Finance Uk Limited Balance: £ 578 Updated: 01/04/2014 Status: Default

Name *************

Address *************

Date of birth*************

Account type Student Loan

Account number ****6751 0

Account start date 18/06/2012

Opening balance £ 578

Repayment frequency Monthly

Date of default 13/07/2012

Default balance £ 578

 

 

I do not recognise this account in any way. It is my belief that this entry is fraudulent, and as a result, requires IMMEDIATE REMOVAL from my credit files.

 

PLEASE NOTE: This is not an acknowledgement of any debt, and the onus is on yourself to prove without doubt this debt is mine. This is not a SAR request, therefore there will not be a £10 fee for this service.

 

A copy of this letter will be forwarded to the FCA under the heading CREDIT FITNESS, along with copies of your correspondence.

 

 

Yours faithfully,

Inaccurate for the following reasons not fraudulent!

Did you ever have student bank account and or credit card?

As this is a Noddle (2nd hand data) report you need to check Equifax and or Experian for more up to date information and the name of the original creditor, if you are going to challenge MMF you will need to be well informed.

A complaint to the FCA should e headed " Fitness to hold a Consumer Credit Licence".

I have never been a student, therefore whatever it is these muppets have bought, they have described it incorrectly.

 

As MMF are renowned for buying PDL's, I am worried that something has been taken out in my name. This is why the word "fraudulent" is playing on my mind. I do not recognise the debt and sure enough do not want it soiling my credit record.

 

Any advice is welcome.

I have no outstanding PDL's so there is really no reason for this to arise. I guess the CCA request will be in order to find out just what this is all about.

Yes certainly send a CCA request address it to Neil Petty.use signed for post.

A postal order for £1.00 marked clearly " for statutory fee only" is best, don't listen to any crap about them having 40 days to comply it's 12 +2 Working days and no more.

I thought I would try to find instances where Motormile Finance UK Limited have purchased debts

supposedly from pounds till pay day

which is actually the trading name of Northway Financial Limited

or Northway Financial Corporation Limited

part of the

Northway Group Head Office Malta Northway Group. Level 5, Plaza Commercial Center Bisazza Street Sliema SLM 1640.

 

They Motormile seem to operate in this way,

an supposedly outstanding debt of some age

perhaps 4 or 5 years ago from pounds till payday (Northway Financial),

which they state they purchased- suddenly appears as a default on your credit rating,

 

 

usually you have not checked this so

 

 

to give an example you receive a letter stating that an outstanding debt has been purchased

dated say July 2014 for a sum owing from 2010 say November,

 

 

you have not heard from them and of course believe that either you don't owe the money as you have already paid it or that it must be a mistake,

 

 

you check your credit rating (Noddle is best as it is free) and find that two or three months before the letters date they have defaulted you with every credit rating agent.

 

They may say you owe them £500,

you phone and arrange to pay because you don't want any more defaults,

 

 

however, inevitably you find that even after the debt is satisfied that they continue to default your accounts (just a mistake?).

 

 

Of course the original owner of the debt never defaulted you at all concerning the supposedly outstanding sum,

what do you do,

you complain to the Authorities Financial Ombudsman Services, Trading, CSA, Trading Standards.

 

Now if anyone replies to this post I will post the letters and information you need to get these defaults removed,

 

 

compensation/damages and the amount you paid back,

 

 

yes you will need a solicitor,

yes you will need to be patient and

you will need to pay because NO Legal Aid is available to deal with these people.

 

 

you don't need any sols

and you don't need to pay anyone anything.

inc MMF this supposed 'debt'

 

 

paying a debt does not remove any defaults

nor improve your credit rating one bit.

 

 

MMF [as with any debt buyer] CANNOT magically make an account [RE] appear on your CRA file

only the original creditor can default you

 

 

sorry but this sounds like a bit of a spoof or money making exercise.
