    • 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 purchased an electric scooter from Amazon back in October

haven’t used it much as health issues have stopped me

 

only used it twice since then and not by me but my daughter was in it when something fell off the scooter then it made a weird noise

she stopped the scooter and the back tyre literally exploded which obviously was very shocking.

 

Having got in touch with Amazon and informing them what happened

(I told them I was riding it not my daughter as didn’t want to give them an excuse to say no to refund)

they messaged back saying no to the refund .

 

After several more messages back and forth stating my rights under consumer law and faulty goods as the tyre exploding was nothing we did as it’s only been used twice, they’ve finally said they will refund me 320.00 even though the cost was 420.00 (should of seen all the technical bull they were trying to blind me with 

 

my question is

what do I do should I accept this or hold out for full refund, they have gone from definitely no refund to oh we can refund you 3 quarters of it

 

should I take this or try for whole lot back,

apparently they're taking the scooter back to do tests on it (hmmmm)

they're going to change the wheel and resell it

must think I’m daft cos it’s in perfect nick despite them saying I must definitely have had an accident on it to cause this damage, the only damage been the wheel 

 

what should I do ?

 

Xxkia

Hi

 

I tried doing a chargeback but they said that they (Amazon)aren’t responsible for the third party sellers and what they sell that I will have to deal

with them or report them to trading standards

 

which as when I did the complaint through the bank the question was who was the company who sold it and that was Amazon, it was them on my

bank statement

 

I’m stuck now as trading standards don’t get me my money back apparently according to citizen advice so what do i do now ?xxkia

the fact that the company is outside of UK has nothing to do with the bank and is none of their business.

you are doing a chargeback against the payee amazon.
