    • 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.

Yet another letter arrived today, this time from Engage (part of Marston)

 

I will as always ignore this one too, although I do like the referrence to a CCJ having been obtained.

Yes, it was 11 years ago.

 

But before I go I'd like to run something past the wise and sage on CAG.

 

It's now 11 years this month since they got the CCJ.

They did nothing with it in terms of enforcement, I suspect because they mistakenly thought they had a charging order.

 

Now they could go back to the court and ask for permission to enforce the CCJ but would have to explain both why they took no enforcement action within the 6 year limit, and then left it another 5 years before coming back to the court for permission to enforce.

 

I'm not one to say 'never' but in my assessment they dont have much chance of convincing a court to excuse their oversight/incompetence and grant permission to enforce.

 

However, I'm a little stubborn and would like to see them write-off the amount.

Would it serve any purpose to engage a solicitor to put pressure on them to capitulate and write this off?

 

If so can anyone suggest a solicitor who would be willing to take this on.

Past experience is that most solicitors dont understand exactly whats going on here, either with the time since the CCJ or the restriction K.

 

Or should I just put up with them adding to my ever growing pile of polite but meaningless letters.

Hi, and thanks dx100uk for opening the thread

 

Well another year passed and another letter has arrived.

 

Just to recap the CCG is now 12 years old and for the first 6+ years I heard not a peep from these guys. Then in 2017 they suddenly popped up having realised they might have missed the boat.

 

I have diligently refused to discuss this with them despite various threats.

 

The latest arrived today and takes the form of a threat to seek an attachment of earnings order.

 

So I think I know what the answer you guys will give, but I'd just like to make sure on that.

Keep ignoring. Absolutely nothing they can do. They know theyre out of time, but hope you dont.  So for the price of a letter they hope theyll get thousands out of it.  

Just remember as well, its a form letter. Auto generated. The only parts different to everyone elses are the dates name and address.

Just rest easy knowing that they can never do anything. If they are stupid enough to go back to court ( they wont), you can just ask a judge to ask them...  theyve had 12 years to chase it.  Why now?

it is extremely rare enforcement orders are given on CCJ's over 6 years old.   And youre talking like 1 in a million . Or more.
