    • 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 Guys,

Was contacted by erudio last year about the change of ownership.

i didnt want to sign the deferment letter.

Came on here read up and decided to request my CCA for the loans back in October.

No response only threatening letters. i sent a second response and no reply.

They eventually wrote to me in december saying they will look into my request.

I heard nothing until today - they have actually sent me a copy of all my CCA's, signed.

Wondering what are my options here? They did not comply to the 14 days from my request.

The date of the loans are 97, 98, 99 and 2000

HOWEVER - of all the CCA's, there is a few things:

- only 1999 and 2000 are signed the others are blank

- 1998 only has the DD section ignored

- only 1999 is signed by an official from student loans

They are photo copies though. but the others do look completely blank

Thanking you in advance

Ok il scan up shortly - what do you need to see on them and what shall/can i cover up?

 

I last deferred the last year before sale, so i have pretty much deferred most years. As soon as it switched hands to Erudio i haven't signed a thing.

Hi Guys, re-bumping this rather than starting a new one.

i refused to sign erudio's dodgy upgraded deferment form.

Eventually they sent by debt over to Capquest.

 

Firstly i sent them a template on here 'i dont acknowledge' CCA Request, nothing yet more letters,

i recently sent them a 'prove it' style - they have not responded

 

Shall i send a letter again?

I did request a CCA from Erudio and they sent me pieces of this as mentioned above

I remember DX and i remember your priceless help (thank you again!)

 

Ill follow previous advice..

... Reason i started these new thread is i really dont want to have to go to court again and set aside another Statutory demand

 

:( plus its messing up my credit file

, i cant get any finance or even start to for another 4 years. However i see your point and thanks for the reminder

 

I spoke to credit reference agencies and they said i can dispute the marks on my credit score

- you suggest to try this?

Because the one at the time requested i sign a new form.

 

i read up countless people having the same issue and were advised send your own deferment letter under the same terms as previous not erudio ones

 

. I did, and i got the same reply... i need to sign their one

Thanks for that..

. just read the whole 6 pages, and have the deferment form.

Yep ill have to do another for this year too i guess, so send them that with the letter i presume.

 

Reading that thread... you state to sign and alter slightly, they didnt sign, so do i or dont i sign?

 

And i draft a cover letter along with the SLC DAF to Erudio explaining :

 

"I have been contact by capquest informing me i have a debt in arrears and defaulted for my student loan.

 

i have sent you the SLC DAF previously which is acceptable by FOS,

i have attached this years DAF also.

 

i request you accept my DAF demand you REMOVE the whole account from my credit file.

Otherwise i shall complain to the FOS. I expect to hear from you in 14 days"

 

something like that?

 

Anything else?

 

I can see that person in that post actually never heard back nor got a response, and instead like me their debt was sent to capquest and in the same position. I am just following protocol here then i presume to protect myself in the event it goes to court?

Still not sure about signing this one but i guess i must. Just worried if capquest get hold of it they pay copy/paste. But hey if i must i must sign

 

Will be sending today, i kept it very blunt and demanded as you say - thanks again

Hey guys, thought i would update you -

 

received a balance statement from erudio following my dispute letter and sending my deferment for again (Thanks DX100UK),

 

they have been removed from my credit file.

 

This letter was dated 4th sept.

 

All looks like its ok?

 

Maybe not.... i received no acknowledgement of my letter,

AND also received this:

 

Around the same period (i didnt open my post) i received a letter dated 29th AUG stating the following:

 

Thank you for your recent correspondence regarding your studenrt loan.

We have now investigated your complaint raised on decemeber 2015 and unfortunately we have not recieved correspondence from the FSO.

We would ask that you send us a copy of the outcome, to be able to investigate further.

Capquest will place a 30 day hold on your account ......

Any advice on the next steps?

 

Shall i send my deferment letter recorded again?

 

Doesn't seem they have acknowledged and/or are mocking it

Thats what im puzzled about.

 

No i didn't, i requested a cca using the template link on here when they said they wouldn't accept my original deferrment,

 

i then sent a no cca response letter again states nothing about FOS.

 

Nowhere in my letters did it state this at all?

 

These letters were sent to then in 2014 not 2015.

Hi Guys, update:

 

Received a letter from erudio telling me my account has now been passed to allied international credit, obviously they have ignored my previous letter and my deferment.

 

Shalll i send another letter outlining the DAF acceptance by FOS and also write a complaint to the FOS?

Haha ok, i know they are useless but i just cant believe erudio are playing this game when im complying with FOS. Shocking but oh well!

 

Enjoy your weekends!

 

You definitely don't think its worth complaining to the FOS about this like 'pluthero' did in this thread?:

Got another letter from AIC offering a reduced rate dropped by £1000. Ridiculous, i sent my DAF!!!

 

I know its too early to complain to FOS about the DCA harassment but this shouldnt be with a DCA anyway as i have complied with the DAF terms. I feel i should write to erudio stating this again?

 

Thanks

Not 100% sure WarrenBuffet, seems the DCA industry is quite incestuous and very blurred lines who owns or relates to what company.

 

They have different addresses though, whether directly connected or just work together im not sure. Ive tried researching this.

 

All the same nonsense tbh.

 

Im shocked erudio have been able to act this way when taking over students loans

HI GUys,

 

 

update: erudio have sent me a 'Remedy of Account' letter for each of my years student loans.

 

It outlines my arrears for each account and period with an attached FCA 'Managing Arrears' leaflet.

 

Should i reply?

 

extremely annoyed at this i have sent them a deferment (original SL one only) every year

Update guys:

 

Received a letter today from erudio saying the management of my debt has now been passed to drydensfarifax solciitors, which seems to be a sister arm of erudio from what i can see. I suppse i will receive a county court claim.... wondering how i should proceed/prepare?

 

Just a recap, i never signed their new deferment or agreement and only ever sent the original one to them yearly, but my income is now above the deferment threshold.

 

Thanks in advance

 

Thought i would check the post and i have a letter from Drydens already - its a PAP form

Thanks again DX100uk, just had a little browse, seems they are in very similar positions.

i guess i also have grounds as these should have never gone to arrears,

i havent written to FoS with a complaint, i see one of these posters has.

 

Going to have a full read again in the morning, start at this PAP

 

OK i have had a good read of those other threads.

 

Update - seems i am still in the threshold! its been raised 2018-2019 and also 2017-2018 i was under also, however those are irrelevant anyway as i was in contact and they were not responding to my letters to take me out of arrears and default to get the a stage of deferment and or pay them anyway, just round and round with every DCA they can use.

 

So now i have the PAP to complete, im going to use this one

https://www.consumeractiongroup.co.uk/forum/showthread.php?481827-The-Pre-Action-Protocol-for-Debt-Claims-is-made-by-the-Master-of-the-Rolls-as-Head-of-Civil-Justice.-1st-Oct-2017(1-Viewing)-nbsp

 

and send a CCA request again?

 

I think i have grounds here to argue i have sent my deferments and been ignored, arrears and defaults have not changed at all.

 

My defence i feel is: Still being in the deferment threshold, been sending SLC DAF, i am entitled to defer under the original SLC DAF?

 

Am i missing something?

 

Next Step:

So my only course of action now is to reply to PAP through drydens, i dont contact erudio also?

 

To send:

1 - PAP from link above not their forms (and CCA?)

2 - should i send a copy of only my current SLC DAF to drydens?

3 - should i send payslips? i presuming answer here is no, just the DAF would be sufficent

4 - should i send anything else?
