    • 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.

Hi,

I find myself in a difficult situation.

I was diagnosed with sleep apnea 10 years ago and then issued with a cpap device.

 

I was never told at the time by my Gp who referred me or by the hospital consultant that I had to report this directly to dvla.

I assumed as it was controlled everything was ok.

 

Recently I had an issue with sleep apnea being uncontrolled.

my machine had a problem which has been replaced with one that wirelessly reports data to the hospital.

They say sleep apnea is now controlled again.

So far so good, again no mention of Dvla.

 

Recently though going through a complaint with my GP (different matter) who referred me to the sleep clinic, its been said about reporting my condition to DVLA.

 

Im now worried after 10 years of not reporting I'm in deep hot water.

Any advice on how to tackle this?

Im hearing horror stories of DVLA revoking licences etc.

 

I will be ringing the sleep clinic at my hospital tomorrow to get some kind of evidence of my current machine readings to prove the condition is controlled.

You won't be in trouble. But you should report it.

 

Do it for safety rather than being scared of revocation

Any advice i give is my own and is based solely on personal experience. If in any doubt about a situation , please contact a certified legal representative or debt counsellor..

Hi, yes Im doing it for the right reasons, just was horrified at not only it wasnt done for so long, but also my ignorance an naievity over the situation.

 

Im also concerned as 2 years ago I was involved in a minor car accident.

It was not my fault as the third party was on the wrong side of the road in a car park and also admitted liability.

My condition was controlled at the time and the insurance paid out and reclaimed from third part insurance succesfully.

 

Just very worried and anxious overall.

Dont worry. I know a few people that drive and have sleep apnea and manage fine. The revocation etc only happens in worse cases or if youre a PCV/HGV driver

Do you think it will be an issue that i haven't reported this at all for so long?

Doubt it. But in any case, you still need to inform them.

Have any of the medical people suggested you do not drive because of your condition. Had a friend in a similar position involved in a serious accident, he ended up with 30 months as it came out he was warned to stop driving.
