    • 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.

Thanks Andy, so then what would you say my next step then?

 

What action do you take if a company can't provide a sar? Is there anything that can be done, Or do I just accept they don't have what I'm asking for?

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...

Other than whats in the early SAR, I have never heard of BlueSky or Secure Lending. The charge on the title deeds is "welcome Finance", no mention of any of these other companies.

 

 

No, I have never received any new agreement to sign and there was never any mention of a re-write, they were hounding me and I tried my hardest to avoid any sort of telephone conversation with them, so the few calls I did have I would remember discussing whether to rewrite it.

 

 

Yes, its in Scotland.

 

 

I'm just really looking to see what my next step is since they cant identify me from their records.

 

 

Thanks for all the help so far, there so much info on the net regarding the downfalls of welcome, it gets a bit overwhelming!

pers if I were you id stick to whats on cag rather than reading elsewhere

 

i'll go thru the sar in fine detail later as I've a busy few days

more soon

Hi all,

 

I just realised I am now past the standard 40 days to receive my SAR from Lowells, should I be sending another letter to Lowells chasing them up or give them a bit more time?

 

Also, i'm still not sure what to put back to WF after them claiming not to be able to identify me, any ideas?

 

Thanks,

Hey dx,

 

I sent a sar request to lowells and coincidentally got the paperwork through today which consists of a copy of the cca along with a statement of account just showing my balance and payments made over the years.

 

The cca is an exact copy of the one I have.

 

Thanks.

do the statements go back to the start of the loan?

 

if not...

i'd go ring welcome now

no harm in doing this

 

use the truth with them that you are looking to sell now but cant settle the charge as your solicitor is querying that he has found out the debt resulting in the charge is now no longer owned by welcome...your are confused, what can they tell you and who do you need to settle with.

if they relate any information...that's means they DO hold something.

record the call

DONT tip them off you've sent an sar etc...

 

if the person starts quoting info [that they shouldn't have!] ask them for a ref number to quote and an address to sent an sar too as you'd like a copy...

 

see what happens...

Thanks Dx, the statements go back to when Lowells took over the loan, no further back than that.

 

I'll give WF a call this week and see what they say.

 

Thanks again, i'll give you an update after the call.

So I called WF today,

I quoted the account number that I have (the same one I put in the SAR) and they found my account in seconds but the lady then proceeded to say "your account has been passed to a company called lowells, you'll need to contact them" so I just thanked her and hung up, I didn't want to get into conversation with her.

 

Does this mean WF should still have all my paperwork then?
