    • Your page numbers should run through your WX and exhibits so im concerned its page x of 9.
    • Paragraph 18 – you are still talking about Boston stolen items. About time this was fixed??? Paragraph 19  In any event, the claimant's PS5 gaming device was correctly declared and correctly valued. The defendant accepted it for carriage and was even prepared to earn extra money by selling sell insurance in case of its loss or damage. New paragraph 20 – this the defendant routinely sells insurance in respect of "no compensation" items (a secondary contract contrary to section 72 CRA 2015) new paragraph above paragraph 20 – the defendant purports to limit its liability in respect of lost or damaged items. This is contrary to section 57 of the consumer rights act 2015. The defendant offers to extend their liability if their customer purchases an insurance cover for an extra sum of money. This insurance is a secondary contract calculated to exclude or limit their liability for the defendants contractual breaches and is contrary to section 72 of the consumer rights act 2015. New paragraph below paragraph 42 – the defendant merely relies on "standard industry practice" You haven't pointed to the place in your bundle of the Telegraph newspaper extract. You have to jiggle the paragraphs around. Even though I have suggested new paragraph numbers, the order I have suggested is on your existing version 5. You will have to work it out for your next version. Good luck!   Let's see version 6 Separately, would you be kind enough to send me an unredacted to me at our admin email address.

    • 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.

Good afternoon

 

I currently have an ongoing complaint which has recently progressed to a complaint being made to the financial-ombudsman.

 

I recently received some letters from bright house regarding a late payment fee which say's on all 3 letters that the date of Agreement being 21-11-2017.

Is this the actual day they claim the agreement/contract was made?

 

As One of the items is a Television id took an agreement on in november 2014 and should of been paid of by now but which they claim over £1000 is owing on

 

When challenged about this i stated that we had items 2-3 years after that and told them they would of not allowed us more items if we that far in arrears at which he said he only knows what was written on his pda (called to our home)

what did you complain about to the FOS

its not clear in your post.

 

all the late payment fees as well as the hidden insurance can be reclaimed at their interest rate.

hi and thank you for your reply

 

The complaint is regarding a t.v we had from them in 2014 which should of been paid up last november but they suddenly claim we owe £1000+ on even though we never missed it and we even received a "we owe you refund payment" on a couple of months ago. They have failed to send a copy of the contract when asked and have not replied to my emails

 

My question is on the statements it says the "date of executed agreement - 21-11-2017" does that mean they claim thats when we took the contract out? i have receipts showing payments well before that if so

 

Once again thank you for your time

Hi

i have just read up on how to send a CCA request which il go about doing.

 

The T.V was £23.00 a week for 156 weeks and was an LG 55 inch TV.

We had originally ordered a 3d TV for around the same price but then for some reason they could not get for us so they gave this one

 

thank you and sorry for my unclear post, I am not very good with explaining in detail while keeping things clear

think you've got the time frame wrong.

Is anyone able to confirm if the date of executed agreement means the date they would be claiming the agreement was taken out. For me it does seem like it would have too but confirmation would make me more certain

thank you in advance

surely its nonsense unless you took out a new contract then

i'm still trying to understand what your problem actually is other than them saying you still owe £1000

when you think going by your agreement in 2014 its been met

Is that not big enough a problem but apart from that it is to see if i had understood what it meant by "date of execution of agreement".

 

Also its just another case to show the blatant attempt to rip a customer off. When i challenged the rep who called around he even claimed that when contacting brighthouse through the website it is just a contact centre

 

One other question i have is if i request a copy of the contracts do they have to send a copy of the original contract which holds my signature ? as the ones they had last sent a while ago had no signatures

 

Im sorry i am really just after comfirmation of things as i still cannot get around the fact that its happened

 

Thank you for your time commenting dx100uk. Sorry if i am waisting your time or unclear

Thank you i am going to send a CCA Request in the morning. The chap who had called around was rather intimidating and had even placed his foot infront of my door which i guess is in case i closed it. I had told him that i was currently in discussion with customer support and explained the situation and he had replied that those i contacted are only a contact centre and he will keep calling around

 

Thank you for confirming that i should send a CCA Request. i had not known of this until today

The execution date is the date on which a contract has been signed by all the necessary parties. This may or may not be the effective date of the contract, which may be specified in the body of the document.

 

It may supersede any previous ongoing agreement or may refer to an older agreement entered but only executed 21-11-2017

The item in question was purchased 3 years prior in 2014 so it would be unusual to execute it 3 years later would it not

 

. The date they have given is one month after the date the actual contract would of finished

I did actually record him stating that the CAB (citizens advice) would have no way of helping me as they are a 3rd party and also him saying that they cannot give a copy of contracts or payment information to me and also that the customer support for brighthouse is only a contact centre and cannot help in any way

(I was unsure of the law regarding recording someone so i did inform him)

Unusual yes..... but then again this is Brighthouse and most probably forgot to execute the agreement from the original date (2014) of inception...ignore their date your date runs from when you entered and the payments you have made..

 

Your following post clarifies that their staff have no idea of the CCA1974 or consumer matters or what Citizens Advice actually perform.

You say "one of the items" so have you bought anything else other then the telly?

 

they may well have set up an agreement on that date for something else and then got the items and agreements confused.

 

list all of the times with purchase dates and then I have no doubt the picture will become clear

then I would bet that the agreement they have dug up relates to one of them.
