    • 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 a debt, originally with Egg, that I stopped paying nearly 5 years ago. I am in Scotland, so it hasn't quite reached the statute barred timescale yet, but probably 5-6 months away.

 

This debt was to combine 2 Egg cards into a single loan, and I was, quite categorically, told that I had to take the PPI in order to qualify. I was, and still am self employed, and so the PPI was most definitely mis-sold.

 

But here's my problem...

 

I stopped paying the loan after 2-3 years, as I suffered catastrophic losses due to a dodgy business partner. And i was fed up with the greed from the banks and card companies.

 

The loan was officially defaulted, and they tried a few DCA to recover it, but I ignored all correspondence - essentially not acknowledging the debt, and hoping for statute barred status.

 

The loan has since been sold on, and Egg no longer exist.

 

I received a letter from Canada Square, who were the people who, apparently, managed the PPI for Egg, stating that I was identified as someone who was, potentially, mis-sold PPI. I was DELIBERATELY mis-sold PPI, as the policy does not cover me as a self employed person...

 

I know that there's now been a PPI deadline declared

(am I correct there? Can someone clarify?)

 

I want to claim this NOW -

BUT... how does this stand with the outstanding debt?

 

Surely, in claiming the PPI on the debt, it's as good as acknowledging the debt?

Or will this me a safe bet, as I am dealing with Canada Square and not the original lender (who do not exist any more anyway)...?

 

Would Canada Square have any reason to get in touch with the current DCA who owns the debt??

 

Help all you financial Eggheads! (no pun intended)

 

Can you all pitch in your 2 pennies worth please...?

Go for it

 

If the loan was merged debts with PPI

Then the reclaim. Could well be £1000's

 

They could buy the debts back and off set but that's rare

 

As for the time limit...doesn't wipeout the limitations act

 

Sar to them first mind

 

Dx

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...
