    • 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. Β 

      Car was dirty and test drive was two circuits of roundabout on entry to the showroom. Β 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 byΒ 10pm. Β 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.Β 
      Β 

      Many thanksΒ

    • 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 everyone

I need some advise from anyone willing to offer and from a relatives experience and high recommendations I think I will certainly get this hereΒ πŸ˜€

Β 

Here goes,

Β 

I have had a current account with Natwest for 10years or more and when i got into financial difficulties I applied for an overdraft around 6 years ago.

Β 

I could not believe how easy it was and cut a long story short my debt problem continued to spiral, over a few months before i knew it i had continual overdraft increase requests accepted and i now had an overdraft Β£4000,

Β 

So for the last 6 years I have just been paying the interest fees on the account which has continually been overdrawn just to try and keep it from exceeding the limit and incurring charges which some months further down the line failed to do and paid the overdraft charges when i could.

Β 

Over the last 2 months Natwest have been contacting me to settle the overdraft in full which i have not been able to do then suddenly the account was closed and I can not get access with online banking and now they say i have to deal with a DCAΒ  (Moroncroft debt collection) who are now sending me threatening letters.

Β 

I don't dispute the overdraft debt but i need advice how to go about settling the overdraft and have a few questions?

Β 

1, I assume that even if the account is in default and Moroncroft have been assigned the debt i should still communicate with Natwest

Β 

2, I would like to get this debt cleared but i assume there will be plenty of charges on the account and wonder if i can claim them back and would like to know how as I have been told that unfair bank charges can be claimed?

Β 

3, can i ask Natwest to adjust the account and remove all unfair charges and then have a final amended figure to settle the account and clear the debt

Β 

Any help will be very much appreciated.

Β 

Thanks owed

I'm putting a shout out to my site team colleague @dx100uk who is best placed to advise you on this.

When you applied for your overdraft and then during the overdraft increases, was your credit record with the credit agencies already blighted? Did you have other debts with other organisations?

@dx100ukwill be along soon - I have to ask though. This wasnt your main account was it?Β 

Β 

Do you have another account where your income is paid into? If not - Open one with some one. If you do then this should be a bit easier to deal with.Β 

Banks are calling in a lot of Overdrafts and tightening their Lending Criteria. Its likely that they issued a 60 day notice to terminate the account and along with that the debt associated it with will need to be settled.Β 

Β 

Could try an Irresponsible Lending Claim. May work... But you may find difficulty in it succeeding.

a copy of your credit file would be a serious game changer if it showed late payments/defaults/lots of existing lending at that time.

Wow dx that would be a game changer?

Β 

I have used all my free credit file checks up so will have to sign up for 1. Will it give reference to what was happening in the years around the account agreeing the overdrafts? Should I upload a redacted credit file so you can have your thoughts on where it stood at the time ?

Good job on the account changing, always better to have moved and be aware of what could happen.Β 

As for the CRA - No dont worry about the credit file entry.Β 

How many defaults did you have when you applied for an overdraft?Β

Hi everyone

Just had my statements back from Natwest which show constant money going in to cover the over draft charges on a regular monthly basis.

1, Have I got just cause to put in a claim regarding the charges?

2, I have signed up to equifax but i am unable to find out how i get information regarding if i had any defaults for other loans/payday loans at the time the overdraft was obtained which I assume will assist when submitting an irl?

Β 

Any guidance will be appreciated.Β

this is what was pointed too earlier , from the sar it will be possible to workout when the OD was applied for and granted. that gives you the date you need credit file history for.

Β 

you indicate it was about 6yrs ago, so most other credit in existence at the time would have been probably defaulted already, if it was those are removed from a credit file when the default reaches it 6th birthday along with the data you need about it.

Β 

this is why regularly checking and retaining copies of a credit file is always a worthy move, even if you are not in trouble at that time.

Ok thanks dx,

how do i get a credit file history for a certain date, do i just check what is listed and see how far back they go to find any defaults?

How about overdraft fees and late charges do i have a chance at putting in a claim on those?

I sent an IRL to Natwest with regards to the multiple overdraft increase acceptance and loan taken out on the current account and this is their redacted reply attached.Β 

I have now escalated this the FOS and awaiting a response!

I have highlighted in red some contradictory statements and also the fact they they say that it is my fault that I used the loan that was applied for whilst being Β£2600 overdrawn?

Any advice will be welcomed.
