    • 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.

so if you sent your lba on 19th march, you should have filed your claim in court on 2nd april. hsbc don't always respond to your prelims or lba's and it's best to stick to your own timetable. it's your claim, not theirs!!

 

read through as many threads and faq's as you can before you file your claim so you get a good idea of what's likely/not likely to happen adey... that way, you'll not be in for any surprises along the way.

If i've been helpful in any way....then tip my scales over there!

adey, before you start you must do your homework. you are going to take a bank to court for your money back, so if you don't understand what you are trying to do from the outset, you'll be ripped to shreads. read the following links i'm sending you and get a better knowledge before you file in court. get it right and you'll be fine. make mistakes now and they'll be harder to correct (and costly)!

 

FAQs :::::::::::::::::::::::::- PLEASE READ THESE FIRST!!!

 

6. Interest calculation spreadsheets

 

Charges description on statements - Please Read

 

start with these for now... come back if you need any help ok

Hello newbee!

 

We talked in chat and spoke about the next step!

 

Adey - spreadsheet! Don't be too keen to jump ahead or it can cost you your claim.

 

Read this on interest!

 

http://www.consumeractiongroup.co.uk/forum/faqs-please-read-these/25457-guide-reclaiming-bank-charges.html?garpg=4

 

Read the next one to get the spreadsheet. For now the simple version should be fine.

 

http://www.consumeractiongroup.co.uk/forum/faqs-please-read-these/25457-guide-reclaiming-bank-charges.html?garpg=5

 

THEN AND ONLY THEN - when you have worked out the fees....look at below..

 

 

P>S NO CHEATING!!!!!!! IT HAS TO BE RIGHT!!!

 

(comment made after speaking! - meant with a smile!)

 

 

The next step is the court process.

 

Options from here are!

 

You can apply for an exemption through the court when you file your claim so it is worth a read and if in hardship, worth applying.

 

http://www.hmcourts-service.gov.uk/H...fl ets_id=172

 

While it appears a daunting process from here, its not really. Its a series of steps that get you closer to your claim. Use the chat room and your new post here, to gain the support you need.

 

The links below take you directly to templates and all you need to start the process.

 

Make sure you read it through to be informed of choices and if you are stuck for answers, post back on your thread and someone will direct you with a right reply.

 

 

So your options are -

 

Money claim online - No fee remission

 

5. Money Claim On-Line (MCOL) Particulars of Claim

 

 

Preferred personal recommendation! IS N1!

 

N1 at your local court. - Fee remission

 

4. Particulars of claim - N1 - hard copy version

 

When you click on this link at the top of the page is the form you will need and linked to a pdf document. The template and example there can be copied and pasted.

 

That should keep you reading and informed for the next step after the letter.

 

Good luck and if you need help look me up in the chat room!

well, after that chat i recalculated my charges and interest and completed my N1. Sent them off in the post yesterday. Just got back from work and have received an offer from HSBC.

 

The charges I calculated they owed me was £1180 charges and £292 interest on those charges. (Not overdraft interest but the 8% calc).

 

They have offered £1019....

 

What do you advise? Bear in mind if I act quickly I could stop the court action (£120).

 

They state that some of the charges are over 6 years old, thats only because its taken them so long to reply to my letter!

whatever you do, good luck/happy spending and well done!

 

(that was quite painless!):)

called HSBC service centre today to discuss their offer, took over 25 minutes to get through to someone! sent of my rejection letter shortly after, hopefully they will send me an increased offer before the 2 week deadline I set out..otherwise I'll resend my N1 - last one was returned because I forgot to name the defendant, simply putting HSBC will not do!

  • 3 weeks later...

Well, I received an offer of my bank charges only, £1160, which i accepted. I was asking for £1450 in total so the offer wasnt far off and to be honest i wasn't looking forward to going to court. Checked my bank balance this morning and the Charges have been refunded. Took them about 5 working days to process.

 

Just like to say thanks to everyone who helped me. The advice I received from everyone here was brilliant, spreadsheets and sample letters were invaluable.

 

Thanks again peeps.
