    • 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.

im just posting on behalf of my sister as im unsure what to advise to her, wondering if any one can help.

 

My sister who's pregnant  had a car accident January, she was driving her corsa and a van pulled out ( he was on her side of the road facing towards her) it was icy and she went to brake but skidded and collided with the van driver which in turn rebounded and hit a stationary car. she was traveling around 30-35 mph. 

 

her car was written off by goskippy who she is insured with, and AX have provided her with a courtesy car to get to and from work.

 

AX have informed her that admiral, who are the van drivers insurance are refusing liability, and have called my sister to ask her if she can pay for it to be repaired.

 

she has said no as she's due to go on maternity and money will be tight, the woman said she will inform her manager and call her back.

 

she has rang me today, to say AX have called and want her to send in 3 months worth of bank statements to show that she cannot pay for the repair? 

 

she currently has third party with goskippy.. does this sound right? thanks

she said it wasnt her fault from the start,

 

originally they was going to pay £2,200 but then said admiral are not admitting liability so can she afford to pay the repairs herself which she said no.

 

they have said if admiral wont budge they will take the courtesy car back off her and leave her without essentially they said its because she only had third party insurance.. 

 

 I'm confused they can just leave her with out anything can they?

thank you, apologies if it seems muddled up, I don't really understand it my self tbh.. she called AX and they are trying to contact admiral but haven't received a response from them yet.

 

she said it wasn't her fault, he shouldn't have pulled out as it was her right of way, he should have waited until she passed. 

 

she has said to AX today, why arent you fighting my corner,  they said "She said its a difficult one because they're refusing liability and without evidence were stuck." 

 

what does she do?

 

she hasn't admitted ever she was at fault to anyone

 

this is what she has sent me, thanks
