    • 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.

Have collected bank statements from the internet for just over the last 4 years & have requested previous 16 months from the lovely CALL CENTRE!!! (Will await postman).

 

So far I have a total in excess of £1200 to claim, once I have the final amount will be sending the sample letter via e-mail to my branch.

 

Will keep you updated any any correspondence I receive.

Have received the standard reply today from David Just. As they state they will not be refunding my money, is it worth writing a reply to this or should I just wait for 28.02.06 then start proceedings?

Probably that.

Had to chase small claims court today, 15 March, as request was showing as not being served to Llyods TSB- from the 08 March- although they had debited my bank account with the £120.00 charge. Just like a bank really!!

 

Received e-mail back that just stated it had been served today. No apology, no nothing! One large organisation seems to be just like any other- they think they can walk all over us little people.

 

Wonder if I can claim interest on the money taken a week ago by the court aswell? Ha Ha ! :lol:

Please pm Dave or Bankfodder with details please for Litigation in Progress.

 

My, isn't Lloyds litigation department getting busy these days.

The law, in its majestic equality, forbids the rich as well as the poor to sleep under bridges, to beg in the streets, and to steal bread.

Today I like so many others have received correspondence from Lloyds TSB's solicitor offering payment in full with conditions attached.

 

Before I tell them to stick it where the sun doesn't shine, can someone please explain how I work out the interest involved.

 

When filling the money claim action in I ticked that I was claiming intesest but never entered an amount. Now they are offering to pay & interest is not mentioned.

 

Perhaps I am just being blond but every thread & FAQ's, explaining the calculation process, that I use just ends up being more than my initial claim.

 

I really want to have figures available when I call the solicitor on monday morning.

 

Any help is greatly appreciated.

Lloyds solicitor wrote to me on 06 April 06 offering to settle my request in full on the understanding that I had an account review.

 

I signed to say I agreed to this & contacted my Branch Manager.

 

He had not got a clue why I was calling him as he thought everything to do with Customers claiming charges back was being dealt withat a central department.

 

Explained what the letter from the solicitor said, so we then discussed my account & he said he would contact the solicitor to advise the content of the conversation.

 

The solicitor confirmed that he had called her & then yesterday e-mailed me to say that it hadn't been a proper revue & the bank manager would be calling me to conduct/arrange this.

 

My question is this: As Lloyds have messed me around- again- can I now tell them that I do not agree to the account review & to shove it where the sun doesn't shine & if they are not happy with this then I will see them in court?

 

I am so angry with them that I feel like going into my branch on tuesday, taking all of my money from the account & then closing the account but can't help feeling that if I do this they will have won in some small way.

 

Anyone have any opinions or answers as I am now getting stressed about this & i don't do srtess. AARGH!
