    • 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.

There is only one kind of Brexit and that is out.

 

I knew all I needed, that we would be free to make our own laws and not have some foreigner overriding what

our courts say.

I knew that we would be free to make all the trading contracts we wanted and not be told who we could trade

with by Germany.

Very few of the former MPs, almost all from opposition parties, say they will miss the opportunity to see Boris Johnson and his new majority government gloating from the green benches

* Corbyn and his 100,000 supporters are right

- everyone else is wrong and they just need to be 'convinced' to get it right (anyone seeing the issues in 'Communist China? with 're-education')

 

I know someone who post on this thread who thinks the exact same thing - hello tobyjugg

I'll tell you what mate, I don't know what to say.  If thinking about stuff makes me an idiot then I'm an idiot.  You are the epitome of someone who doesn't like change.  If you believe your extreme narrative - I actually believe the current narrative is extreme because it's extreme to have one entrenched position, and not to consider other possibilities.  I'm not saying I'm right, I'm just pointing out where there are issues and where possible solutions lie.  The solutions may not be complete or correct, but others may build on them.  Surely that's what humanity should be great at - building on thoughts, expanding on them and collectively reaching a resolution.  Why do we accept so blindly that what we have is all that is possible, and people suffering is a necessary evil of the capitalist wheel.

You won't win, if you say something that he don't like he will just fling abuse at you, he hates being caught out and that happens all the time.

Lets keep it civil please.

 

What is absolutely certain, is that with a Government with more than a working majority, we cannot afford to have the main opposition party in a divided situation, where they are unable to hold Government to account.

 

Labour cannot stop the Tories voting through legislation in Parliament, but they can look to gain public support against any Government policies which they think will be damaging.

 

Labour need to find a new leader who has a chance of becoming  popular with the British public, who can transform them within 4 years,  ready to form a Government.   I am not sure who the new leader will be,  but  it needs to be someone who is strong enough to make required changes.  Perhaps former Army Major Dan Jarvis,  is the person for the job ?

 

 

Labour has always voted against everything just for the sake of it.  As one of the women Labour MPs said at the Brexit vote

"I am fed up with being the opposition for the sake of being the opposition and I will be voting with the Government.

Prioritise - that's an easy one A Points Based System

 

This will be a system where it is workers' skills that matter, not which country they come from. It will be a single system that welcomes talent, hard work, and the skills we need as a country.

Labour has five glorious and uninterupted years to get their act together.  They can no longer challenge the government even

as a parliamentry party and I can't think of one of them I would promote to leader.

I doubt Corbyn was a true remoaner, he wanted to nationalise the railways, that is something the EU which requires governments to open up train services to the markets, wouldn't allow.

I think I said recently that French railways, SNCF, is owned by the French government, as an example.

Most EU railways are part owned or subsidised heavily by their governments, but in 2023 the Forth rail package comes into force which will force those governments to replace some of the routes with private ones.

The Paper presented to Parliament 12 months ago says:-

 

"As the UK leaves the European Union (EU) and we bring free movement to an end, different rules to the current ones must apply to migration here by EU citizens. We will take full control of migration by bringing all of it under UK law and institute a new border and immigration system, to serve the UK public and the economy, and to enable those who come to the UK to integrate and make a positive contribution. Everyone will be required to obtain a permission if they want to come to the UK and to work or study here. This does not mean there will be no immigration – as we take full control, we will continue to welcome law-abiding people from around the world who help make the UK a diverse society and dynamic economy. But the end of free movement gives us an opportunity to reset the conversation on migration."
