    • 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.

hello!

 

I'm in need of some help! I thought that this bank charges thing was pretty straight forward, that is until Lloyds TSB sent me a letter.

 

Let me clarify...

 

I sent LTSB a data protection request form for my statements for the last 6 years... which they sent me.

From this I calculated a total which they owe me from charges relating to Overdraft excess fees and Unpaid Direct Debits, so I sent them a Prelim letter... Straight forward.

 

But then LTSB sent me a letter back which basically said I'm not entitled to claim any charges back... and I quote

 

"The office of Fair Trading has published new guidelines on credit card default charges. We're still talking it through with them, but the important point is that the guidelines are about 'default' charges that people pay when they break an agreement with us. This doesn't apply to your charges as these were for dealing with your request to go over your agreed overdraft limit. They are not default charges because you haven't broken your agreement. They are our prices for the service we provide in these situations."

 

Now this has thrown me! Is this just lloyds spiel to put me off reclaiming my bank charges or am I really not entitled to claim these charges back??

Whilst I was at University I had an overdraft of £2000 in my fourth year, and occasionally went over this as all good students do, but at no point did I ever "request to go over my agreed overdraft limit", So I never asked for this service they kindly provided me with and charged me for!

Can someone please point me in the right direction because I am very confused right now!

 

Cheers!

LOL.. standard stuff and a complete load of bull.. they want to knock your confidence but don't let them...the 'service' line is quite new but an attempt to put you off..

 

Start a thread in the Lloyds forum and claim all your charges plus "request to go over my agreed overdraft limit" charges as well...

Good luck
