    • Read upload Tells you how with even online sites too Dx 
    • You could forward it to yourself but before you click send, take out your personal details. Does that help? Although I run this forum I am not a massive techie either! But we would like to see it and also to understand who is who – dates, et cetera. What you typed above doesn't really give many clues and certainly only contains one date and time and doesn't identify the order in which they were sent to each other.  
    • Hey, How can I put a copy of the email on here and still keep it confidential? I really do want to give you all the info you need but I'm not tech at all.  I've just emailed the mechanic using your quote as a template. I will let you know what the reply is. Thanks so much everyone

    • Thank you. We like to see also the exchange between you and the mechanic/garage telling about the gearbox. Also, send an email to the garage whose mechanic called you:   Get this email to them as soon as possible. Hopefully it will draw a response which will confirm what they say – but even if it doesn't draw response – as long as there is no denial then it is fine. Even if there is a denial, it won't be too important but it would certainly be nice to get a paper trail which supports what you say. Please send this off and come back here and confirm that you've done it

    • 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 guys

 

I,m a little gutted as i sent my first letter to Barclays before finding this site, i followed a template from moneysavingexpert and i requested the 8% interest as was suggested on that website. From reading your FAQ's and relevant posts, it appears this was not a good move and makes me look like i have no idea what i'm doing :mad: (which is probably a fair assessment at this time - but hopefully not for much longer). I believe I could have calculated interest at a rate of 9.9%, as i have a barclays additions account. As yet no responce from Barclays!

 

:confused: ... what do you suggest i do now????

 

Thanks for any advice/help in advance

LOL

Don't worry I did exactly the same thing - Barclays never settle until the court stage (well in most cases), and you can add the 8% when you send out the LBA, so really thats only a few weeks away for you!!!:)

I'm now at the MCOL stage and adding the interest hasn't adversely affected me yet!!!!:D

Me too when I'd done it, but can't change what I've sent them and the courts only are really only bothered with whats sent to them on the MCOL or N1 form. And who know everything about this process when they start?!! We all make mistakes, but your's and mine isn't huge!!!:)

Afternoon Lady Jayne,

 

Seems you have settled in here now.

 

There is nothing inherently wrong with nemtioning the section 69 interest 8%, but really you are not entitled to claim thiss till you file at court.

 

The 9.9% additions account interest is a diferent beast however. You can claim the interest you paid on those charges that you are claiming only. As you can imagine the maths on that is a pain and many (including myself) don't bother as the numbers are not really worth it.

 

To set the record straight when you send the Letter Before action you can ammend it to let the bank know you want a refumd of all the charges listed and unless they comply within 14 days you will file a claim which will include (section 69) interest at 8%.

 

Hope it helps and regards

Can someone advise me what MCOL stands for? I didn't ask for the interest but mentioned that i may request it... Have I messed up too? Barclays have written to me twice with holding letters, enclosing the complaints leaflet but havent offered me a good will genture amount yet.. I need to get the Court ball rolling I think... Is this correct?

MCOL is Money Claim online.

 

If you have sent the relevant letters and the LBA deadline is up, then yes, file your claim.

Hi

 

MCOL stands for money claim online which is the online courts service.

 

dont worry about the interest as its only applied when you lauch a claim in the courts, if you have sent the bank a preliminary letter asking for the charges back giving them 14 days to comply and then you have sent a Letter Before Action giving a further 14 days if the bank hasnt refunded you the money by t he end of that time frame then its off to court and then you can add S.69 interest at 8%

 

i hope this helps

 

 

regards

paul
