    • In terms of "why didn't I make a claim" - well, that has to be understood in the context of the long-standing legal battle and all its permuations with the shark. In essence there was a repo and probable fire sale of the leasehold property - which would have led to me initiating the complaint/ claim v SPF in summer 19. But there was no quick sale. And battle commenced and it ain't done yet 5y later. A potential sale morphed into trying to do a debt deal and then into a full blown battle heading to trial - based on the shark deliberately racking up costs just so the ceo can keep the property for himself.  Along the way they have launched claims in 4 different counties -v- me - trying to get a backdoor B. (Haven't yet succeeded) Simultaneously I got dragged into a contentious forfeiture claim and then into a lease extension debacle - both of which lasted 3y. (I have an association with the freeholders and handled all that legal stuff too) I had some (friend paid for) legal support to begin with.  But mostly I have handled every thing alone.  The sheer weight of all the different cases has been pretty overwhelming. And tedious.  I'm battling an aggressive financial shark that has investors giving them 00s of millions. They've employed teams of expensive lawyers and barristers. And also got juniors doing the boring menial tasks. And, of course, in text book style they've delayed issues on purpose and then sent 000's of docs to read at the 11th hour. Which I not only boringly did read,  but also simultaneously filed for ease of reference later - which has come in very handy in speeding up collating legal bundles and being able to find evidence quickly.  It's also how I found out the damning stuff I could use -v- them.  Bottom line - I haven't really had a moment to breath for 5y. I've had to write a statement recently. And asked a clinic for advice. One of the volunteers asked how I got into this situation.  Which prompted me to say it all started when I got bad advice from a broker. Which kick-started me in to thinking I really should look into making some kind of formal complaint -v- the broker.  Which is where I am now.  Extenuating circumstances as to why I'm complaining so late.  But hopefully still in time ??

    • 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

at the beginning of Oct 21 my boiler broke down . 

 

I called  my insurance repairs  !! Your repair !!!,  They said the send some one out  3 days later,  two guys turned up (they was 40 mins late not good start ) 

While one guy texted on his phone the other guy equipped with trusty screwdriver  (that was all ) taken the 2 sides and front off my boiler, he looked at it and then said   can you turn on the hot water tap which my wife did,  the boiler started to pump the water around the house,  he said the fan and the PCU Board is knackered, he didnt test the fan just looked at it and the PCU board is underneath the boiler and behind the control panel.  Needed to buy the parts - off they went . 

That was weds on friday I called   your repair  what's happen .

 

Over the next two weeks different excuses from :

 

Your boiler too old - I told them how old it was when i joined .

Beyond economic repair. - The parts cost £300 

you only have £400 cover - The parts cost me £300 you get them cheaper trade 

 

rain water gone down the flue damaged boiler - My flue sticks out from the house, not up and I have a drain plug if water does go along the flue it drains out 

 

Been almost 2 months in middle of winter with 2 children in the house and a  disabled person with a long list of serious health issues .

 

Today 26 nov I had the policy cancelled as they are not repairing the boiler but expect me to pay for it . 

 

If I get another boiler company in to do a job sheet on it,  it will cost me £60 for the bill , ben to look at it  yet they want me to pay for a 2an opinion  .

I think the two repair men  should have checked the boiler properly.  

 

Been let down badly by

!! your repair!! .

Hi

 

I assume this is a Gas Boiler and is so the first thing I would do is ask Your Repair for the Gas Safety Register Number of the 2 individuals they sent to your property to carry out that repair as they should be Gas Safety Registered.

 

Once you get that then check those numbers on the Gas Safety Register:

 

WWW.GASSAFEREGISTER.CO.UK

Find or check a Gas Safe registered engineer in your area who can fit, fix and service your gas appliances.

 

What I would also do is send Your Repair a Subject Access Request (SAR) asking for 'ALL DATA' that simple phrase cover whatever format they hold your data in whether it be phone calls, emails, written etc. They then have 30 Calendar Days to respond and that time limit only starts once they acknowledge receipt of your SAR request

Hi

I have looked at the reviews on these !! Wont do !! Your repair, there are tons of people who have had the exactly the same experience as I have ,  take the money,  wont do the repair, the lack of repair men standard ! boiler uneconomical to repair on Report , It seems a standard scam,

 

They send in repair men and just do the same report all the time and your repair refuses to do the repair. 

.I have to say in one I'm lucky as they cancelled the contract 

there are loads of them in their reviews that make the customer pay to get out of the contract and people have been threatened by bailiffs. Very easy to join  quick to take our money very helpful staff.. 

 

These people have not had to make a claim yet then they see the real ! your repair !.

Hi

 

Have you read and understood my post#2?

 

Can you upload a copy of the Agreement you signed with Your Repair fully redacted?

 

What is the Make, Model & Year of your Boiler?

 

Have you considered getting an independent inspection done of your Boiler? (as you would need this if you decide to challenge Your Repair)

Hi I haven't signed anything I did it on line . 

It's a biasi combe boiler,  it's about 8 to 9 years old . 

 

I'm looking in to buying the parts and getting it fixed but I need to wait to get my pip, but then I need to pay Bill's and what's left see about the parts .I'm looking in to getting a grant /loan ..

 

As your repair has cancelled the policy, What it would cost me to argue with them then they turn round and say still not fixing it . As they done excuse after excuse 

 

If you look at their bad reviews  you see they done this load and loads Times,  it's all the same stuff they say to people and I dont have any paper work which shows my terms and conditions, they can make it up as they go along 

 

One excuse I only have £400 cover, Yet on the policy when I joined  !! We cant fix it we replace it !!  

 

One the questions was

how old is your boiler-  answered 8 to 9 years  - excuse it too old  - the boiler is still for sale in B&Q now same model -  £1.100 

they just cheap knock off,  if they can fix your boiler for less than £50 but you pay them £700 over 3 years then they're in profit 

 

cheap repairs they will do expensive ones -  uneconomical to repair we not fixing it . - terms and conditions.....

Hi 

 

You may not have any paperwork as you took it out online with them but that does not stop you asking them to provide you with a copy of the agreement that you signed up to online, you are entitled to a copy of that to se exactly what you agreed to and there actual Terms and Conditions.

 

You also need to ask them for the 2 individual that came to your property for there Gas Safety Registration Number which again you are fully entitled to ask and they do need to respond to that and when you get that info you check it on the Gas Safety Register.

 

You cannot challenge a company like this without getting the above information as you need this, I know this doesn't help you with your present situation especially with the way the weather now is and being on benefits.

 

What I would advise is to have a wee chat with you own energy provider to see what assistance they may be able to offer even in changing your Boiler as they may be able to offer something. (I am not saying they will but no harm in asking)

 

Also have a wee look at this link:
