    • 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 Many thanks in advance for any help!

 

 

I am helping my husband reclaim PPI on a loan with Funding Corp (long since paid off).

 

The original loan was for 3000+1324.8 interest.

There is then PPI charge of 900 + 414.72 interest.

 

 

The loan was 19.9% APR over 50 months starting 1.2.05.

 

It was defaulted on 13.10.08 when the outstanding balance was 3911.08.

 

 

Funding Corp have offered

(by way of an incomprehensible breakdown but including 8% compensatory interest and £100 or so deducted for tax) £1887.50

 

 

I have tried downloading the spreaddie for the single premium reclaim but it just seems to download as an attachment .php file and wnt open in Excel...

 

I've no idea if the calc is right andI don't trust them to be accurate. I have a number of questions.

 

1. Is this calc right?!

 

2. There are a number of 'unfair' charges on this loan leading up to the default

- talking £40 a go for unpaid DD and £60 for sending a letter.

 

All after 2006.

Can we reject the claim on the basis that the charges were a direct result of the PPI

and therefore should be included for repayment + interest?

If so do you deduct the 'fair' portion of £12 per charge?

 

3. The payments were unsustainable and led to a default;

as a result he had to move out of his flat and move in with a friend for free,

it's had a long term impact on us as a couple and ability to apply for mortgages, other debt etc, long after the original loan.

 

Therefore is there an avenue to pursue for 'injury / damage' and compensation for the long term damage?

if their are any 'penalty' charges as a result of the PPI

its a wee bit diff to accurately gauge the redress in this situation ...but..

 

 

I would NOT ever be trusting FC!!!

Hi - I've downloaded the spreaddies now thank you, and drafted a letter to include the charges + interest and the redress - thanks so much!

 

 

My question now, is about the amount of PPI itself.

 

 

It is structured on the credit agreement as: Loan amount: £3K

Loan interest: £1324.8

PPI: £900 Interest on PPI: £414.72

 

 

This is reflected on the statement which doesn't have any additional monthly interest being added

 

 

So should FC just be refunding the £900+£414 + 8% interest? (Plus charges etc). Or some other calculation?

 

 

I tried looking at the single premium spreaddie for this but because there were several months where he didn't make a payment etc

I'm not sure it's an accurate reflection of his situation.

 

 

Sorry for allthe qs but so grateful for your help
