    • 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.

I have been trying for months to find someone who will actually speak out about this site but no one will cone forward because everyone is scared of getting evicted.

 

Some just have no back bone.

 

I am still on Golden Sands but they have threatened to evict me and turn off my gas and electric. I was miss sold my caravan in May 2014 I gave them a deposit of £24.500 plus a 2013 caravan as part exchange plus extra finance.

The caravan was £58,000.

 

I was under the impression that I could live on this site. Everyone told me I could and I spent nearly three hours with the sales man informing him that I was moving from another 12 month site to live on here.

He just let me believe I could but never said I couldn't. He just said to get my post delivered to a post office address.

 

I was told so many lies which was misrepresentation and against the law.

 

Its so long this story.

To put it in a nut shell I moved here after selling my house not to evade paying council tax but to build a new life for myself.

I have been in tears so many times as they do not listen to you when you go to the office if you say you have been miss sold a caravan they basically throw you out. Last week I went into see them as they sent me a letter with lies in it mistaking me for someone else.

It was stating they remember having conversations with me where I informed them that my husband had died? Never. I went in to challenge them and they made me leave and informed me they were going to get the police.

The Manager was holding the door open repeatedly saying Byee see you in court. Now how professional is that.

 

My case against them has been going on for months and is now in the hands of the Ombudsman. I feel really sorry for you and any other person who has suffered at the hands of these lying bullies and this has to be stopped.

 

Elderly people who have been ill are walking away from their caravans and the site are benefiting from this all the way to the bank.

I am on my own here and they know I cant stand up to them on my own. I feel so alone in all this because there is no one who will support me with it.

 

 

If you or anyone else can help me in this case or if i can help any one else plese do not hessitate to ask.

I do feel for you & what your going through right now.

 

Have you made a formal complaint to Bourne Leisure Group (Inc Haven, Butlins etc) Head Office?

 

As a Park Manager will only get away with what he says & does, if no one above him is informed of his bad attitude & behaviour!

 

I've worked for a Park similar to yours as a Park Administrator. We had a Park Manager & above him was an Area Manager as well as Senior Managers @ Head Office.

 

So as your getting absolutely no where with your Park Manager & you could be facing eviction, then I would go straight to the CEO & write to him. State exactly what has gone on & what you are trying to achieve here. Be concise, firm & provide as much detail & evidence you have re your situation, as you are now looking to him to also help you get this sorted out.

 

CEO Email.

 

john.dunford@bourne-leisure.co.uk

 

I see you have the Ombudsman involved as well, have you heard back from them at all as yet?

 

I do hope you get the resolution you are seeking.

 

Keep us informed on how you get on...

 

Good Luck!

I don't suffer from insanity, I enjoy every single minute of it!!

My finance is with Barclays Partner Finance.

 

 

I wrote to them as instructed by Consumer direct and they didn't acknowledge the two letters.

 

 

The Ombudsman wrote to them and they replied immediately.

 

 

They stated that it was down to the Caravan park.

 

Supply of goods (implied terms} act 1973 changes to expressed terms of contact

and also the misrepresentation of information.

 

I am awaiting news regarding this from the Ombudsman

 

Not sure what to do next.

 

Kind Regards

Hi

What is not allowed,

 

 

Thanks

 

That wasn't aimed @ you Alfieob, it was a message for Sean.

 

 

If this were me in your predicament, I'd still write to the CEO as I said above.

 

If he ignores the 1st or 2nd letter, then write again, until the CEO sees you are not going away.

 

Your Park Manager has to answer to his Area Manager & him to those in HO. Surely there is no way Bourne Leisure would condone his actions.

 

I've personally worked in a Park Managers office & to me, it sounds like HO has no real idea what is actually happening on this Park!

 

Good luck!

Wasn't there a Face the Facts programme about this outfit on Radio 4 a couple of years back? If so, this case would be far from unique. It could have been a similar company but even so might be worth checking via BBC website to see what it had to say.

 

[RT: Sean had provided offline contact details, contrary to site rules.]

Hi Rainbow tears,

 

 

Thank you for your response

 

 

I had followed the link because it was saying about Golden sands in Wales. I have just found out that this is a Hoeseasons site have you any idea who I contact in regards to this.

I thought there would have been more people replied to my post because people have been evicted from the site and people just handing their caravans back every week to the finance companies and walking away. There are caravans empty all over the site that have been just left. Golden sands have now asked for planning permission to site 37 more caravans on the football area of the site. They will be earning thousands and thousands and it will have cost them hardly anything.

 

 

Regards

Hi Rainbow Tears,

 

 

Thanks for the information.

I am going to take your advise on this matter. Would you know if the people who work on the caravan sites i.e. the Manager and Salesmen are employed by Hoeseasons?.

 

 

Kind Regards
