    • An update - Still receiving emails and letters - but have been getting text messages too. nothing aggressive just asking me to get in touch.    the text makes it look like it from the bank on first glance - it reads -   'the banks name' would like to dicuss our recent communication...etc... then lists IDR phone number and email FYI - reporting them as spam
    • Hello, After seeing all of the posts about BMW on here I really wish I hadn't even considered them! I bought a used car from them over the weekend, one specifically which had a reversing camera and cruise control in the advert. I was foolish at the time of purchase and didn't check to see these functions work on the test drive (totally my fault). Now that the car is home I've checked and checked and neither of these functions are available. I even checked on Parkers and it seems that no Skoda Kamiq '21 models come with any parking cameras at all. When buying the car, I was told all that was needed was 'Four signatures and £500' to secure it. I was never shown any of the documents, and instead the sales rep opened a box on his iPad and asked me to sign. He had been complaining about the length of time some customers take these days all throughout my time with him. (Again) foolishly I signed. In my email inbox I now have four attachments from BMW, one of which is my signature under a letter which basically says that the cars don't need to match the advertisements online, or have any of the features that a sales rep talks about. I realise that I've made mistakes in not doing my due diligence here, but thought I might as well ask the experts here if I have any rights left to claim that the car was miss-advertised, or if I unknowingly signed them away? Thanks in advance
    • where was this PCN:? please complete: pers i cant see the point in an sar yet await/if they ever send a letter of claim. as long as you've not moved since 2022 you are OK to totally ignore . dx  
    • ah this is a B2B PCP then as your are sending the SAR as a private individual and not as repping the co. you need to prove to them. unfortunately, i think that will also reset the 30 days. dx

    • 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.

We need someone like Trump to govern this country as he is the best thing for America at present. Oh yes we have Theresa.

Why not cut out the middle men and just put General Bastrykin in charge?

By the way, I understand that there are rumors that Farage has got his wish for recognition and a state award. (recommended by Comrade Trump)

Purely rumor and tittle tattle but it Maybe the

 

Order of Suvorov (2nd class)

awarded to corps, division, and brigade commanders for a decisive victory over a numerically superior enemy.

It gets even crazier as most of the US administration, including major republicans have both denied it and demanded Trump either come up with evidence or retract

 

trump of course is having none of that (either evidence or retraction)

 

 

...

interesting bit is that there is a history of the US using GCHQ to spy on their own people to avoid constitutional issues LOL.

The UK of course has nothing like that (oversight and the spooks having to answer to the population/senate) and GCHQ is of course above and beyond any laws.

immunity rejected atm, apparently re 'sources'....but, 'It does not necessarily rule out immunity at a later date, since the Senate investigation is ongoing.'

http://www.cnbc.com/2017/03/31/senate-intelligence-committee-turned-down-flynns-request-for-immunity-nbc.html

 

They will want to know what they are getting for granting the immunity as he has some things which they can nail him with anyway. They dont want to give that away for nothing, and we already know he;s very happy with lying to everyone up to vice president...

Trump sends fleet to Korean waters

 

Trumps says:

Big ships

Scary ships

Very powerful

 

 

Theres Submarines too, he added,

very Big, very powerful, Very scary

 

I've also ordered Stingray there under Captain Tempest said Trump Very Powerful, VERY scary.

 

When asked why he has done this, Trump replied

North Korea very bad people, very bad.

and its tactics to attack an enemy on 2 fronts, ask any clever man, he said, and I'm clever, very very clever.

 

When asked if that tactic wasn't intended to attack a single enemy on 2 fronts, not multiple enemies, Trump replied 'that shows you're not a clever man. I'm a clever man, very clever.

 

 

When asked if he was worried about North Korea's statements about nuclear responses on Hawaii and the strike force Trump replied

' he's not a clever man I have Superman and the Fantastic 4 ready to respond. Did you know that Mr fantastic wanted me to take over running the Fantastic 4? I also got United airlines to lift their ban on leggings for Superman so Superman could fly out there.

 

Can't Superman fly anyway Mr President?

It is a bit worrying - Trump on one side and Kim Jong In on the other.

 

 

Both of them need their toys taken away.

Let's hope there's technology in place to stop these catastrophic weapons in the sense if they are activated they can be sent off course and neutralised in a safe way.

 

 

urh..I though only trump & the kiddie lived in la la land

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...
