    • 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.

Thank you, I will sit down over weekend and write a letter. Would it be a good idea to enclose a copy of my brothers Insurance as well.

 

Hi, do you have cover for business as I get the feeling that they have taken action on the basis that you haven't.

 

You were coming back from a cash and carry with stock, is that correct?

 

I of course might have the wrong end of the stick.

This what I was thinking. Also my Cotsco card is not a business/trade one, is yours? I fear if you have used your brother's and it's a trade one then you will have an issue .

 

I note you are, or I get the impression that you are, intimate that the Officer was biased because of race.

If you believe this have you made a formal complaint? If not you should because of you rely on this in court they will all why you haven't done so.

 

Also you should provide an history of your Costco purchases to show that you are not buying for trade.

However that's going to be another issue if it's not your card I suppose.

 

I continue to be amazed that the Police have taken such a hard line based on the fact that you have been to Costco.

 

I've made a couple of assumtions when writing the above, forgive me if they are not correct.

Apologies,I have no idea where I got Costco from, I see it was a cash and carry that does not require membership, so I suppose it will only be possible to provide your shopping history by bank statement if you paid by card.

 

I wish you well.
