    • 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

 

I have received a letter from Natwest this morning offering to settle in full - but they want to credit the money to my account, which I no longer use.

 

Can they do this? I would rather have the cheque.

 

Should I just write back and ask them to confirm that they will send a cheque?

 

Thanks

If you have closed your account they will send you a cheque. If you have a debit balance they may take a different view.

My advice has hardly any legal foundation whatsoever, however you never know it it might just work!

Sorry is your account is overdrawn? If so is it agreed with the bank?

I had an agreed overdraft about 5 years ago, and due to financial problems, I switched accounts. The amount I owe is now being dealt with by a debt collection agency, who I pay each month. They then send some payments to Natwest to pay off the outstanding balance (I only found this out recently, as far as I was aware, Natwest closed the account, as I have had nothing paid in for years, and the money from the debt collection agency only started going into the account in the past few months.)

I think the money will go directly to Natwest to pay off your debt with them. This might not be what you want to hear.

Is the debt collection agency charging you for their service? I don't mean to pry but you may be better off using the CCCS if you can get out of this agreement,

It's your money.

 

But the amount you owe to Natwest, well, it's their money.

 

IMO, they have every right to offset the refund against the debt.

 

But HEY! One less debt to worry about, one less lot of interest to pay every month, one step closer to financial recoverry!!! It's a GOOD thing! You never expected to see that money again anyway, so be happy!

Your debt will be further reduced by the charges refund. All good.
