    • Hello, firstly thank you for reading this. I know no one wants a long winded back story. So I’ll be breif. I entered a local store to buy some paint (which I did pay for) I am honestly not a bad person or a theif.   Didn’t have a basket or trolly as was on my lunch break. Whilst picking up the three tubs of paint placed some masking tape in my pocket (it was hanging out of so I had every intention to pay) just didn’t have a hand free. Paid for my goods (forgot about the £4.39 masking tape) I’ve got so much going on and im not well at all (like I say no one cares I get that) also have autism so wasn’t thinking particularly like others do maybe (who knows my minds going around and around) I left the store after paying, was pulled back in by security. Asked for the tape which I gave immediately  shook up. Gave them my ID and details. I was given some paper and told to expect a large fine in the post for their time and the tape and sent on my way. my questions are: I hardly ever go out without support so the ban I guess I can’t go there now for anything (their loss) - ok but is my photo going to be all over with my name? how much am I expecting in the post as a fine? I have sent them cash in the post recorded signed for delivery to arrive tomorrow (incident happened today) for my error. Their Address was on the bit of paper. i have read two posts on this page but they were from many many years ago so I hoped for updated advise please? 
    • V important you read lots of BMW threads too !  
    • So should I send them a new SAR and put my date of birth on it? Or do I need to send them some proof? Driving license? 
    • Thanks so much for your help!! I've emailed them, and when they reply saying they can't do it I'll reply and state my rights. I'm so glad I found this forum, and will read all of the posts I can find and help guides available for the future. Really can't thank you enough.
    • utter BS, doesn't matter you signed it. pers i'd be writing as per the other threads here rejecting the car as not as described under CRA etc and be done with it. as its a debit card you could also do a full chargeback within 120 days to your bank and simply dump the car back to BMW. 100's of like threads to read here. get your ducks inline. make sure you know what you are doing and off you go. dont take any BS from BMW, no matter what you sign it does NOT remove your consumer rights. p'haps it might be on the off chance you are a good manager , a quick phonecall tomorrow saying you dont want it because (no bla bla fitted) it might be resolved in 5 mins..i will guess to date you not tried

    • 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.

I sent the SAR by recorded delivery along with the required £10.00 made payable to Nationwide on 13th February 2007.

 

They duly took the money from my account on the 7th March but I have still not received anything.

 

I made the mistake of sending it to Member Services Dept in Northampton and wonder whether that has slowed down in me receiving the print-out.

 

Any suggestions.

hi there

 

did you use the SAR template from CAG?

 

if you sent it recorded, did you check the delivery of your letter on royal mail web? from the next day following delivery is day 1 of 40, including weekends and bank holidays..

 

so the 40 days have gone and you have recieved nothing,,

then go to the templates and do letter of non compliance...

 

sorry i havnt learned how to do links yet... :confused:

 

i dont think the address is the problem at all..

 

hope this helps , always ask if you have any questions, check out the FAQs and read up on loads of threads.. knowledge is power

It was signed for on the 14th so day 1 is the 15th ?

 

Even that means the 40 days were up today. Yes I did use the template.

 

I tried looking for the non-compliance letter in the templates section but can only see the SAR one ??

Well I finally received my 6 years worth of monthly statements today. Just a matter now of wading through them to find the bank charges :-o

 

As it happens I got the date wrong of when I sent off the request.

 

I actually posted it recorded delivery on the 20th February and not the 13th.

 

Once I get my figure I take it I don't add the 8% interest just yet for the next stage ?

glad to hear you got them,

you will need to send prelim letter(templates)

and also a spreadsheet that you can complete and send with your prelim. are you claiming interest? if your not you can download the simple spreadsheet that only calculates the 8%(that only gets mentioned when going to court) if you want check out my thread and you will see the millions of questions i had and the help i recieved along with the advice and spreadsheet links too.

i did send the spreadsheet in and it showed the 8% as it calculates it itself. but i havent mentioned it at all as yet! i thought that it may speed them up as they can see how much interest will be added..

i know it wont make any difference ~ lori said the same too, she tried the same..

keep us posted..

Yup I found the Excel simple form but removed the 8% interest column which of course I will put back when sending the form to the local court as I am pretty confident it will go that far ;)

 

Not a huge amount I am claiming at just over £540.00 but none the less still money they owe me.

 

Will keep you all posted but I'm sure you know the routine by now LOL ... fob off letter, LBA, MCOL, multiple corrections to your bank account :)

  • 2 weeks later...

Hi I'm a first timer-here and some advice would be gratefully received please :confused: I sent a SAR & £10 cheque to NW on 6th March requesting 6 years worth of statements using the template letter from moneysavingexpert.com. They cashed my cheque on 22nd March but so far no statements have arrived. Would you advise that I chase them or wait until the 40 days are up next week to chase? Do the 40 days include weekends and bank holidays? I sent the letter to my local branch by the way, should I chase them or the head office in Swindon? I accessed the last 2 years worth of statements via internet banking and worked out that charges for his period amount to £2777 without interest, so it may turn out to be a hefty claim. Any suggestions would be gratefully received. Thanks in advance :)

Well it took Nationwide over 3 weeks to send me my statements after they cashed the cheque. Coincidentally it was nigh on 40 days to the day I sent it recorded delivery.

 

Timescale ...

 

20/02/07 Sent request via recorded delivery.

07/03/07 £10 cheque cashed by Nationwide.

03/04/07 Received the statements recorded delivery.

 

By my reckoning 10inchlynch you should receive yours around the 17th April.

I have today received the compulsory fob off letter from Nationwide but noted that the request to look elsewhere for your banking arrangements has disappeared hmmm :rolleyes:

 

Anyway I've just completed the LBA and am about to send it off recorded deliver of course. ;)
