    • Paragraph 18 – you are still talking about Boston stolen items. About time this was fixed??? Paragraph 19  In any event, the claimant's PS5 gaming device was correctly declared and correctly valued. The defendant accepted it for carriage and was even prepared to earn extra money by selling sell insurance in case of its loss or damage. New paragraph 20 – this the defendant routinely sells insurance in respect of "no compensation" items (a secondary contract contrary to section 72 CRA 2015) new paragraph above paragraph 20 – the defendant purports to limit its liability in respect of lost or damaged items. This is contrary to section 57 of the consumer rights act 2015. The defendant offers to extend their liability if their customer purchases an insurance cover for an extra sum of money. This insurance is a secondary contract calculated to exclude or limit their liability for the defendants contractual breaches and is contrary to section 72 of the consumer rights act 2015. New paragraph below paragraph 42 – the defendant merely relies on "standard industry practice" You haven't pointed to the place in your bundle of the Telegraph newspaper extract.

    • 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 eveyone, new user here need some adice plz.

 

ive read this online in my local paper

 

 

GINA Carey, 22, of Wilson Street, Derby, was handed a two-month community order with curfew, and ordered to pay £85 costs and a £60 victim surcharge for stealing a £575 television from Buy As You View, Derby, on June 27.

says someone got community sentence and a fine for STEALING a tv from buy as you view!! £145 in total, not enough if you ask me!!!

 

Serves em right if you ask me, if you don't pay what you owe then what do you expect

 

question is will there be more people getting in trouble (maybe sent to prison?)

for not paying their buy as you view (and others) reckon that would be a good thing

as I hnow loads of people who just dont bother paying ever

and its not fair on people like me who pay £12 month for a tv

and never miss a payment pay every time lol!

please don't hit Quote...just type we know what we said earlier..

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...

Nobody has ever been convicted or sent to prison for "not paying their buy as you view". Failing to pay a debt is not a crime, it is a civil matter. It would only become a prison matter if the customer could be proven to have acted with intentional, criminal dishonesty. For example by signing a contract for the TV in a false name and then selling it to cash converters the next day.

 

But you can just just keep making those payments Owen, and have a laugh at others who aren't as smart as you.

Strange one this. As BAYV have no stores, this must have been a rental in which this person didn't pay which is a civil matter.

 

The only conclusion I can think of is that BAYV reported this as a theft OR took out a civil claim for repossession and the lady failed to surrender the TV so the article in the newspaper should have been more clear.

 

owenrotten, why, when you posted for advice did you then go on to post the link? Don't work for BAYV do you??

So if you order a tv and then dont pay and refuse to give it back its not theft? I think you will find that is criminal, not civil.

 

I once used buy as you view. I had no house insurance, no contents insurance etc but was paying their monthly insurance. My tv(bayv tv) was pulled over by my then child and smashed. I phoned bayv who delivered a new one the next day as accidental damage was covered. This must have been 10 years ago now, but for me, the insurance was worth it. A bit pointless if you have contents insurance though.

But the OP, if he has the relevant insurance in place and was missold the insurance, does need to claim it back.

IF the lady had physically taken the TV with the intention to permanently deprive then that IS theft however, as BAYV have no stores, this TV must have been taken under contract which is a civil matter. Our speculating as to what happened is a bit moot as we don't know the full circumstances but as the OP posted the link, we can.

 

There is the option of renting the TV then selling it on which could be classed as a criminal act.
