    • 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.

An auspicious start, hopefully! Nice one.

 

Lot's of branch staff not in management are very helpful, I mean they work for the pirates and I imagine that they are having a chuckle seeing the employers getting stung (well I would if I was them). Hence the helpfulness and the 'Oh don't bother about the tenner wink wink' attitude. lol

Don't be surpised to see a historic statement charge on your bank account. What the branch say and what the bosses do are two different things.....

 

Might be being cynical but whose fault is that?

those calculations don't seem to add up.

 

Have you just added all your interest amounts up, or have you got that from the spreadsheet?

 

Your chargeable interest must be a small percentage of your charge amount - it could never be larger.

Now as the claim won't go to court, so won't have the chance to add on the 8% Im better off using the compound interest rather than the statutory? JUst a bit hesitant as I rarely see posts not statutory

I would think if you claimed contractual interest it most definitely WILL go to court!

There's a thread somewhere I read in last couple days where the bank (not RBS tho I think) was defending contractual interest by saying an individual couldn't claim under the principles of mutuality and reciprocity..

 

I'm sorry but I'll be b*****d if I can find it now....I'm having that sort of week.

 

I'll keep looking

If it doesn't go to court though, you won't get that!

No not both.

 

You need to either decide to go up the normal route (ie stat 8%), most likely be settled early and receive no more than your charges, or go for compound, and more than likely go to court.

 

Think I'm confused now too......

As T4FF says, you either claim the stat 8% which is awarded by the Judge at his discretion (but it seems they always do) AFTER judgement, which means if the bank settles before that (it seems THEY always do too) THEN YOU WON'T GET ANY INTEREST.

 

If you claim contractual, this gets added to the claim BEFORE you go to court and is more likely to get the bank defending...certainly attempting strikeout, so it will then come down to the strength of your argument.....

Thks Hydra - was getting confused as the Prelim includes an addition of interest.

 

The interest referred to in the prelim is overdraft interest. I.e. the interest you get charged on a monthly basis for being overdrawn. Your able to claim back the percentage of interest that was accrued against your bank charges after your interest free overdraft is taken off.

 

For example......

 

OD £300

Int Free OD £100

Bank Charges £50

(Debit) Interest £10

 

Chargeable OD = £300-£100 = £200

Percentage of OD made up of charges = £50/£200 = 25%

Percentage of charges reclaimable = 25% of £10 = £2.50

And this is a MINEFIELD, I didn't even consider it...too complicated for my uncomplicated northern brain

Even with £1300 overdraft interest didn't want to stray into that minefield either !

 

I think, personally, if my unauthorised overdraft interest was over the £1k level I might consider claiming.

 

But are you sure thats right? £1.3k in unauthorised overdraft interest? Sounds a lot unless you already have a high authorised limit and still exceeded that often...

 

If it's £1.3k TOTAL overdraft interest you might find the unauthorised element isn't as high as you think - and as my esteemed colleague T4FF points out - the template spreadsheets can help with this.
