    • Hello CAG Team, I'm adding the contents of the claim to this thread, but wanted to open the thread with an urgent question: Do I have to supply a WS for a claim with a court date that states " at the hearing the court will consider allocation and, time permitting, give an early neutral evaluation of the case" ? letter is an N24 General Form of Judgement or Order, if so, then I've messed up again. Court date 25 May 2024 The letter from court does not state (like the other claims I have) that I must provide WS within 28 days.. BUT I have recently received a WS from Link for it! making me think I do need to!??
    • Massive issues from Scottish Power I wonder if someone could advise next steps. Tennant moved out I changed the electric into my name I was out the country at the time so I hadn't been to the flat. During sign up process they tried to hijack my gas supply as well which I made it clear I didn't want duel fuel from them but they still went ahead with it. Phoned them up again. a few days later telling them to make sure they stopped it but they said too late ? had to get my current supplier to cancel it. Paid £50 online to ensure there was money covering standing charges etc eventually got to the flat no power. Phoned Scottish Power 40 minutes to get through they state I have a pay as you go meter and that they had set me up on a credit account so they need to send an engineer out which they will pass my details onto. Phone called from engineer asking questions , found out the float is vacant so not an emergency so I have to speak to Scottish Power again. Spoke with the original person from Scottish Power who admitted a mistake (I had told her it was vacant) and now states that it will take 4 weeks to get an appointment but if I want to raise a complaint they will contact me in 48 hours and it will be looked at quicker. Raised a complaint , complaints emailed me within 24 hours to say it will take 7 days till he speaks with me. All I want is power in the property would I be better switching over to EON who supply the gas surely they could sort it out quicker? One thing is for sure I will never bother with Scottish Power ever again.

    • 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.

Hello,

probably been asked 100s of times but what are the chances i can get the garage I bought the car from to replace a clutch kit in the following circumstances:

 

 

Bought a Nissan almera £1495 from a garage 3/8/16. Car started over revving when accelerating in 3rd gear... 6/8/16. 3 days after purchase.

 

Problem quickly worsened and had been over revving in 3rd to 5th constantly.

Car has been checked today 22/8/16 , less than 3 weeks since bought, done less than 300 miles and needs a new clutch kit £305.

 

The front brake is also stuck on and i'm waiting to hear how much to fix.

To say the least it's extremely likely the clutch was already worn before purchase so the fault was pre existing but trade centre are not interested.

 

When asked before purchase whether the car had had a recent service I was given a vague answer 'hmm I think so'. There are supposedly no MOT advisories and the car appeared fine so I went through with the purchase which I am now beginning to regret.

 

I know the repair garage isn't making things up as I know them and dealt with them for a long time.

 

 

Does anyone know how likely if I went to small claims court whether I could get the dealer to pay for the clutch...thanks

you actually 3months sale act and ignore a garage that says 30days or no warranty included its sale act law if you need help contact trading standards they will tell you what to do and if they refuse they will tell what next step to do but hopefully someone on here will give you a idea

 

 

but make sure you keep evidence of whats been said either ring them and get someone to record everything on loud speaker or email them or send a letter

 

 

You can say something like this:

“Under the Consumer Rights Act 2015, this car should be of a satisfactory quality, fit for purpose and as described. My rights have been breached because the car you sold me is faulty. I would like you to put this right by giving me a refund/repairing the car at your cost.”

Thanks johnjordan

I didn't know you could check the mot online.

 

 

the mot failed the same day but only for both headlamps beam aiming too high. it then passed with no advisories.

 

I wish I had taken a photo of the ad as it said it had been serviced.

 

 

I guess you never really know when you buy a 2nd hand car but for the clutch to need replacing after a few days it must have been know to either the dealer or the service centre that it was worn out. the dealer was walmersley trade centre in bury if anyone has had dealt with them.

is it on hire or cash and did you get a invoice for buying the car

 

 

most people that know about cars would know straight away if clutch was going as you would notice slipping in revs and also high clutch biting point and usually you get a smell from engine area

 

 

also never believe anyone that says its been serviced without showing the actual paperwork

cheers guys and it was bought with cash.

 

 

I have an invoice with a note on it * 1 month engine and gearbox warranty only.

 

I asked about extra warranty before I paid for it which was £100 for 3 months and included most things including the clutch.

 

 

I probably would have bought the warranty for the peace of mind but I was already stretching at £1495

never buy warranty they don't mean nothing theres plenty of reviews about that they don't pay out as they say its wear and tear its down to the dealer to fix the problem doesn't matter if warranty people come out to your car and say its wear and tear

 

 

and wont surprise me if the garage will try to fob you off but if he does just contact trading standards but tell him you know what your rights and if he still fobs you offer then ask trading standards for a quicker route but most likely be court

 

 

I had no warranty on a car for £1200 3yrs ago and engine was knackered after 2months and when I rang garage they tried fobbing me off saying it was 1 month cover I said by the sales act if a car is unfit for purpose within 3months you after fix it and they ended up replacing engine

 

 

that was at a different garage

 

 

also you are entitled to any problems in the 3 months to be fixed unless you caused it which you haven't caused them problems

yeah I know next to nothing about cars to be honest

I did google checking a clutch on a used car before I bought it

and the clutch doesn;t/didn;t have a noticeably high biting point

and didn;t notice any slipping in revs when I test drove it.

 

 

I was concentrating on the road in a busy area though and gear changes felt fine,

the car and clutch felt smooth and quiet but there could have been revs slipping that I didn;t notice.

 

ok cheers that's probably what I will do

just to let him know I won't let him fob me off possibly something will be done about it.

 

 

my friend said the same about warranty,

he knows a reasonable bit about cars and came with me to check it over before I paid the rest after deposit

and sat in it in the yard but didn't test drive it, but he thought it looked alright as well

also another site that tells you how to deal with it https://www.moneyadviceservice.org.uk/en/articles/your-rights-if-something-is-wrong-with-your-car says within 6 months aswell

 

just email them the issue and see what reply you get but if they ring you then you need to get a recorder like a spare phone

 

hopefully they might sort it out because I don't think they be happy getting took to court

hammy : )

so to update I paid for the clutch myself reasoning if that was all was wrong with it It would just be one of those things. couple of days later and a heat shield has corroded off the bottom of the car. That was it for me I want my money back and told the dealer so.

 

 

The dealer has agreed to refund the money, barring £25 which he says he will give me when I receive the reg docs ( only bought the car 3 weks ago) and send them back...?

 

 

Since I won't be able to swap any docs back over, will I still be responsible for the car after I cancel insurance?

 

 

Just wondering in case they don't agree to sign anything

 

 

cheers

once car as been returned to them that's there problem when insurance is cancelled

 

you should of got a new mot check on the car before getting clutch as dealers pay garages a back hand to pass them

 

my sister last year didn't listen to me when she got a 2k car from dealer and when she came over I said your disc and pads are worn and electric window and mirrors don't work and I told her you could of brought one in that condition for 1k

 

she was lazy to take it back to dealer to complain about it and they passed mot

well if you want rid of the car and your money back then just let them keep the £25 if you refuse they could be hassles and just say take it court which you would win due to car being faulty but its hassle

but the clutch you should of just took him court and got the car checked over for faults and made him pay

 

well 2 options either take car back and get a refund and pay the £25 just to get shut or take the car to a garage for a pre mot check and if it fails for alsorts either get the invoice of repairs and tell him if he doesn't repair you take him court or want a full refund without the £25 removed for v5

 

trust me he wont win at court if you take it there as he cant refuse cost of repairs if he does 1. refund or court and you win

 

if I was you aswell is search on google for is garage and leave a bad review

 

private is worse

 

 

my dad brought a car but bad thing is you cant tell if brake lines are bad unless you can lift car and 2days later brake fluid was all over drive way so the guy who sold it put 12months mot with a car that's a death trap so its shows people if they know mot people they pass being dangerous

 

if I was you take car for a pre mot and if the car is bad take it back and if he refuses to take car without taking £25 v5 say you take him court for a car that shouldn't be on road and then get dvla involved for a garage that passed it in the first place as they be under investigation for passing a car with issues

So you bought a car and noticed that the clutch was slipping after just three days but continued to drive it. You should have returned to the seller immediately you noticed anything wrong.

 

You have paid yourself to have a clutch fitted and the dealer will accept it back but not give you a full refund. He is having a laugh, he will be able to sell the car with confidence that there is nothing wrong with the clutch and probably charge even more than he sold it to you.

 

What is the state of play at the moment, has he definitely agreed a full refund minus the log book fee ??

 

Are you still driving the car ??
