    • 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 dingwall, welocme to cag please be sure to read the faqs, this is a very large site where you will find all the halp and information regarding you claim, any questions you have be sure to post and someone will come along and answer your questions.

 

yes wait until 14 days after they have received letter before you go on to next stage, you can add on any charges incurred right up until you file for court, when you send your LBA just add the extra charges on and amend the total on your schedule of charges send this along with your LBA. best of luck . x

PLEASE HELP OTHERS, WHEN YOU WIN YOUR CLAIM GIVE A LITTLE BACK

 

 

Nationwide **WON**- £3,880.00 14/03/07

Just an update to let you know whats happening.

Decided to go down the Financial Ombudsman road initially as my butt was getting a bit twitchy after Lloyds winning a case!.

Have had 2 letters back so far, the first acknowledging reciept of all the information and last week i got one saying my case was awaiting allocation.

Anyone else in the same situation or had experience of how long they take?

Letter received today from the FO saying that they have contacted The Nationwide instructing them to make an offer which meets my claim in full or provide them with information which would reach a conclusion on the merit of my claim.

They have six weeks to reply.

Hopefully something soon!

Fingers crossed.

Anyone else in the same boat?

Yes i agree you should be able to claim contractual interest, the bank do it to us.

What i would say about my claim from start to finish was that it was hassle free. I recommend using this route if you are worried or dont feel you could handle a court case. It is also an excellent route if you live in Scotland due to the small claims system restricting your claim. You can also claim 6 years and not 5 through the ombudsman if you live in Scotland like me.

Also this site has been an absolute goldmine of information, there's a lot of different stories and tactics been used. I would say sit down work out what u want, how your going to go about it and most importantly of all... don't get stressed! You will get what is rightfully yours in the end.

:)

P.S Do the right thing when you win and donate to this site, it is an inspiration to us all and a goldmine of information, lets keep it going. Lets hear a big cheer for the little man when he LEGALLY robs a bank.

 

REMEMBER A BIT OF COMMON SENSE GOES A LONG WAY IN THIS WORLD!

Suprise suprise chuck! Nationwide are now withdrawing my £500 overdraft despite them being aware that the account was in dispute and agreeing to hold everything off until the 15th Aug. Letter received today. Petty retaliation if u ask me!

Screw them i had no intention of leaving my money in an account with them anyway.

:lol:
