    • 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.

Just to let everyone know...

 

Im in the middle of a claim with Lloyd's for my fiancee as he has had loads of charges over the years. I have had few charges with abbey-only a couple of hundred which I wasn't really bothered about. In January though, I had over a hundred just in that month so I went down to my local branch to let them know that I wanted them back. I ended up with a phone number to ring which I did and after a lot of persuasion I managed to get the charges for January refunded as I hadn't asked for any back before.

It was classed as a complaint and the other day I got a letter saying they were sorry my complaint had taken so long to deal with and included a leaflet for the financial ombudsman. I didnt think anything of it as I didnt know I even had a complaint in- I'd recieved my money back and that was that as far as I was concerned.

Then this morning I checked my bank and found that I'd been refunded £255!

 

I don't know why this has happened but I'm not complaining.

Has anyone else had this happen to them?

Very nice of the Abbey to do that and I do not remember reading about this sort of thing happening to anyone else.

Do you think it could be classed as a win? Im not sure if it's everything I've been charged as I have another £80 due out next week but I think they might have been cancelled!

If it is a win it was a very easy one seen as in I only made one phone call and totally forgot abot it until I recieved the letter. :)

As I have said in my previous thread. I believe that ShABBEY SEEMS WILLING ENOUGH TO REFUND BANK CHARGES TO THEIR CUSTOMERS (IF THEY COMPLAIN PREFERABLE BY TELEPHONE) if the total about is not a huge sum. Good luck to you all

Guest louis wu

This sounds as if they want you to think its a good result, when really you could be claiming a lot more back.

 

For the sake of £10, I would send the SAR and see what it comes up with, you may get a suprise.
