    • 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.

Positive update, I think!

 

I had another RBS lettter referring to the mortgate protection plan this time.

 

I believe this was 1999 at £7.00 a month which may have stopped in 2003?

 

Then in 2003 at £5.00 a month a Life protector descreasing term assurance, this is still collecting but with Aviva.

 

There are no dates or account numbers but the letter says PPI refund £800.000 odd, interest at £1k odd, minus £200.00 tax , offer of £1700.00 ish.

 

Unless there is another PPi review on going, this may it for the PPi and Life protector, which is possibly not enough as even £5.00 a month over 20 years is £1200.00 but they are quoting £800.00 as refund.

 

What is my best move now please?

 

Cheers

I have some data!

 

Called and was told it was mortgage protection plan from December 2000 until May (first advisor said August) at £16.00 a month which they make £817.00 and I make £866.00 or £915.00 depending which month you choose, I guess I should question their figure?

 

They advised there is an overfraft and mortgage claim still waiting assesment?! which I have no idea about!

 

What I do know, is I have paperwork and policy number for a mortgage PPi which started December 2000 but was for £7.00 a month, so confused!

 

The other one is this RSA Life protector decreasing term assurance which started in 2003 at £5.00 a month, was advised I must have with the mortgage , transfered from RSA to Aviva in 2011 and is still going! Have paperwork and policy number for this.

 

When I mentioned this on the phone the woman quickly said 'we dont do life insurance' but this is life 'assurance' and was told I must have it!

 

Please advise on the best way to approach this.

 

Many thanks

Ok thanks.

 

So do I write or email quoting the policy numbers and ask them to investigate this too then?

 

Being honest this started in 2003 and cannot recall exactly how, but know I was advised at some time I needed to have this alongside a mortgage?

you have already started a PPI reclaim, it should be included in that.

you cant start a new claim as new claims are now time barred..

 

you need to make it clear to them, that it was NOT an endowment mortgage so there was NO requirement for a life assurance policy, so whatever it is , it was missold protection.

The letter was advising I did not have PPi on an overdraft, weird!

 

you need to make it clear to them, that it was NOT an endowment mortgage so there was NO requirement for a life assurance policy, so whatever it is , it was missold protection.

 

Am I best to email or write?

 

Dear PPi team

 

In your letter dated xxxx you have confirmed I was indeed mis-sold the mortgage protection insurance, but have not mentioned the life protector assurance which started on xxxx at £x.xx per month and currently debiting my account. I was advised by yourselves the mortgage protection insurance and RSA Life protector decreasing term assurance were compulsory for my situation and type of mortgage. My mortgage was not an endowment mortgage and now know there was no requirement for a life assurance policy.

 

Sound ok?

why not simply say...

 

My mortgage was not an endowment mortgage , there was no requirement to have any insurances, whatever their name.

please refund all insurances , they were all a form of payment protection.

As they have already acknowledged the 'payment protection insurance' been mis-sold, this should be ok?

 

Thank you for your letter dated xxxx which advises you are upholding my miss-selling of PPi and associated insurances complaint.

 

My mortgage was not an endowment mortgage, there was no requirement to have any insurances, whatever their name. Please refund all insurances, they were all a form of payment protection.

I wrote to you on xxx august 2019 wanting to reclaim the numerous compulsory protection policies you made me takeout in year concerning

 my mortgage agreement number xxx dated xxx.

 

you replied in letter dated xxx concerning a payment protection policy but appear to have failed to address the RSA Life protector decreasing term assurance {policy number xxx) which transferred from RSA to Aviva in 2011, which I point out i am is still paying to date, within your above ref'd offer letter.

 

i should not need to point this out, but, the Mortgage i signed upto was not an endowment policy, therefore there was NO legal requirement to have, nor should you have made, either policy compulsory. The only beneficiary was yourselves through ultimate direct payment should I die settling your mortgage sum.

 

please address this issue

I've had a few missed calls and then text from RBS wanting to talk about the letter I sent, two posts up. 

 

Am I best to wait for them to write? Didn't really want to get into a discussion with them about it ideally!

Thanks dx, interesting article and good on Aviva

 

Got a letter from RBS...

 

'Our dept only deals with PPi and a separate complaint would need to be raised with the decreasing term insurance team. We have asked this team to contact you'

 

What do you think the next best step is?
