    • 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.

Just heard the result, a disgrace, I am hoping though HFO have now dug themselves a hole they cannot get out of, cos if Rio appeals, they cannot discontinue.

We/I may have made errors. Let's not judge till we get the story and the transcript. Lots of life in this one yet...

 

Now, now, we did everything possible, lets use what has happened to our advantage, we presented the true facts, they did not and this can be proved, I have had an interesting email tonight and will be digging further, time to play dirty, but within the law of the land.

tbf until we get a full report all we have is the judgement which is disappointing to say the least. I would be interested how they managed to bamboozle the judge.

 

S.

It may well have been surprisingly easy if the judges area of practice was equity or trust law, or family law,

 

if you need brain surgery you have a brain surgeon, if its heart surgery its a heart surgeon, the same principals apply in law,some judges arent up to speed in a particular area of law, and therefore need assistance of the parties to set out the case for them. If you cant present the case then you risk the judge applying the legal principles which he considers correct to the problem

 

A good worked example was surrounding document which was required to be served under a provision a consumer protection statute. The trial judge was specialised in Landlord and Tenant Law, therefore when the issue over the notice arose the judge applied a Landlord case ( Manni Investments vs Eagle Star) and held that a bad notice was not fatal, it wasnt in the landlord case, but ought to have been under a well known case from the Court of Appeal.

 

The point is that the judge would have made an error in judgment if it hadnt been for the fact that the lawyer in that case had drawn a court authority and legal commentary to the judges attention.

 

The above was a point made to me by the solicitor who was involved in the actual case, that solicitor is a good friend of mine now.It goes to show that you cannot expect a judge to know everything, and you must bring the case to the table and set out your case properly and know your arguments properly.

 

 

We really need to know what really went on to be able to see where this case is at and if there is a prospect of moving this forward

Hi

Welcome to The Consumer Action Group.

 

 

I am just letting you know that as you haven't had any replies to your post yet, it might be better if you post your message again in an appropriate sub-forum. You will get lots of help there.

 

Also take some time to read around the forum and get used to the layout. It is a big forum and takes a lot of getting used to.

 

 

Once you start to find your way, you will soon realise that it is fairly easy to get round and to get the help you need.

 

It can be bit confusing at first.

Please be advised that my time will be limited for the next few weeks.Thanks for your understanding.

Have you had a statement in the last 2 years, do you know how much you still owe.

I'm getting the feeling they're trying to rake in as much money before they finally lose there licence.

No statements just a letter today about if I miss a payment they will add interest from notice of letter 3rd january said they would post out a formal letter rememberthey sent a letter about six months ago it was three thousand then

 

Just wanted to know if it was a good thing to do and would they remove the charge or sell on the county court judgement ?

I know what I would do if they still had the CCJ and CO they had against me.

As I said in previous post, I think they're trying to grab as much cash as they can before being shutdown and as you say you only owe £3000, in my opinion £2000 isn't a great settlement offer, considering there perilous position.

 

So your options are stop paying completely, they could well do nothing, carry on paying the £20, pay the £3000 making sure you get everything in writing and make sure they do remove the CO, which they didn't with mine, I had to do it myself or make a counter settlement offer, which if it was me, it would be very small.

 

Hopefully it's not too long before the OFT give their decision on HFO, s licence.
