    • But I'm not mixing and matching. Sure, when researching I do check multiple avenues, but when speaking, I will open a single post. The Fb post was made in March, it is now June, time has passed, and when the suggestion was made, no further information was given on how I should progress beyond "send a letter", which has meant that I've needed to start another stream - this one, but only after taking the time to research first.
    • hes not turning you away he is simply saying that you should stick to one channel of advice. he is perfectly happy with that channel being this forum, and he will help you   all he is saying, and I agree, is that you should stick to one help channel, not mix and match 3/4
    • As long as we are clear . Do the reading and post your letter of claim in draft form as requested and we can go from there.    
    • Hold on @BankFodder, that was a bit harsh. I spoke with the EVRi complaints Facebook group to begin with, a user on that group told me to send a letter but didn't give any specifics. Here at CAG, I was looking more for specific help as I've never raised such a claim before, and wanted to be sure that my claim was correct, which is why I've researched information with the other groups too, to be sure; but you seem to have assumed that I've made some form of contact with the other groups, such that I find your comments and tone to be very unfair. And I do know a thing or two about forums, that forum users are unpaid volunteers, I happen to be a Tableau Ambassador, and so perform a very similar role helping others in an unpaid capacity

    • 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.

Thanks Spice, after a few changes to the forms, I finally got it passed, not to bad, if anyone needs some help with the forms, shout up!! I'll try and give some advice. I got some help from the Court Adviser, who works for the CAB office in the Edinburgh Sheriff Court, pretty straight forward and they check it all out for you before it goes in. They think it will be the 27th June for the hearing.

£190 - for the £499 they owe you?

 

I know what I'd do- but it's not fair to use bad language on here!!

 

See them in court, get your money back and spend it wisely - that's what you should do...

Hiya,

 

you just claim against Cap One in Northampton, they will let you go up to the small claims dept from the reception. Up there they will go through your claim and may advise you to make some changes if needed, but they are helpful. You claim Juresdiction in Edinburgh as this is where the money should be paid, provided your from Edinburgh?

You can also get advice from the CAB office up on the next floor as for Rosaland McKenna, she's keen to know how these are progressing.

 

Good Luck!!

Congratulations indeed!!

 

I have one question about the forms, how did you ask for the 8% interest back in section four on the small claims doc. I was told by the sheriffs clerk, that you cannot just claim 8% from the date of service of every charge,rather you need to give an actual date or something. And that normally the 8% would be calculated on the amount clamied from the date of service of the summons.

 

She also said they were getting alot of these.:razz:

I had a chat with a CAB solicitor this afternoon about this and they thought the interest was from the date of service of the summons, so this might need some clarifying as my claim has been paid without the interest.

Bank of Scotland round 1: £740 + costs settled, still sore over the 8% grrr

Bank of Scotland round 2: £629 +101.15 interest +£39 costs settled.

There are 2 issues with regards this interest...

 

It is perfectly acceptable to use the supplied spreadsheet to work out interest on each charge, from the date it was incurred - but only when you reach the court stage obviously.

 

This is because, if the bank had not taken this money unlawfully on that date, then you would have retained it and could effectively have invested it, gaining interest (maybe not at 8%, but that's not your problem). As such, the courts award this to the victor, if claimed for!

 

The second part of this 8% issue is a figure that DOES start from the date of claim. You will have a figure at this date, be it charges only, or charges plus interest from the date incurred, and you mulitply this figure by 0.00022 to provide an amount of interest (typically pence) that will continue to accrue on a daily basis, until the date of settlement.

 

It is the difference between these two parts that normally causes a lot of confusion. You are, however, perfectly entitled to both!

 

**fruitycar - how did you word your 'particulars of claim'? Did you use our template?

I used Scotias as a template, wording in box 4

"The pursuer claims from the defender the sum of £740 with interest on that sum of 8% from the date of service of each charge (together with the cost of bringing the action)"

Bank of Scotland round 1: £740 + costs settled, still sore over the 8% grrr

Bank of Scotland round 2: £629 +101.15 interest +£39 costs settled.

I used the excel template and the interest from the date for charges on the statements. The wording on the small claim needs to read from date of first charge to date of last charge.
