    • 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 have received a notice of 'Transfer of Proceedings' which says...

 

"Futher, insofar as part of the Claimant's claim is based on charges his account prior to six years from the date of issue of his claim, that is 26th March 2001 this part of the claim is statute barred by Section 5 of the Limitation Act 1980. The defendant is unable to verify the amount claimed prior to the 26th March 2001 as the Statement of Claim does not show how the amount claimed is arrived at"

 

I read something that I should send a letter to MCOL with the charges I calculated. Is this still true? Is this the correct stage to do this?

Hi Jomish,

Welcome to the forum.

I know what you mean but the banks are guilty of concealment and that fact can overrule the statutes barred.please read in this link.

Thanks for the reply. I must admit I am finding some of the stuff a bit confusing but very helpful at the same time. I do not understand what Lloyds are saying though! I am claiming for 29/12/00 and 02/05/06 - should I have started in 2001? I just entered all the ones that were on the statements they sent me!

I have not posted each of my stages which would have been useful so here is my progress so far.

 

I worked out that I am claiming for £1,170.06 including interest. I no longer have the Lloyds TSB account - the charges happened when I was a student.

 

10th February 2007 - Wrote to Lloyds TSB asking last six years of charges

 

20th February 2007 - Replied enclosing printouts of statements

 

21st February 2007 - Sent initial request letter to repay charges

 

28th February 2007 - Lloyds TSB replied with standard letter which said no.

 

3rd March 2007 – Rewrote to Lloyds TSB using template to say I would take them to court to reclaim the charges

 

26th March 2007 – No reply from Lloyds TSB so used MCOL and template to file claim

 

31st March 2007 – Received acknowledgement from Northampton County Court giving until 14th April 2007 for Lloyds TSB to reply

 

10th April 2007 – Lloyds TSB acknowledged claim and wished to defend

 

17th April 2007 – Received notice of transfer of proceeding to MK court and the details of Lloyds TSB defence. They dispute it as I am claiming for more than six years. I did not realise as I just counted up the ones they sent me! It only equates to about £100 of the claim anyway!

 

28th April 2007 - Emailed MCOL to check if I had to send how I arrived at charges (my spreadsheet)

 

30th April 2007 – Sent copy of spreadsheet to MCOL

 

9th May 2007 – Received a notice of allocation to the small claims court track (hearing). It will be on 1st June 2007.

I have sent the spreadsheet to MCOL as advised by them but had no acknowledgement yet - should I send the spreadsheet to Lloyds TSB solicitors now anyway as my court date is 1st June!? Is there anything else I might need to send? Any help much appreciated!

You need to send what the notice of allocation has directed you to.

 

You need to produce a court bundle. Have a good read of this thread -

Hi Jomish,

 

just read through your post with some interest as I am at a similar point with Lloyds/TSB. I received the exact same defence from SC & M it seems including the one stating I am claiming for more than the 6 years. Although my Particulars of Claim start outside the 6 year 'allowance' my first date claimed for on my spreadsheet is actually within the 6 years so I'm sticking with it.

 

My claim with MCOL started only 4 days after yours (30th March), the last notification I received was a Notice of Transfer of Proceedings dated the 30th April. I have sent a letter to SC & M offering to settle before it gets to Court, though I understand they will not reply it may look better for me IF this should go to Court. I have also sent a Draft Order For Questionnaire with the Draft Order For Directions attachment to both SC & M and LCC (Leeds County Court).

 

Hopefully I should be hearing something further soon enough, it seems maybe yours is nearly over with if you have a court date, so good luck

 

regards,

10th May 2007 Sent bundle found on this website plus my charges printout to court and lloyds. I am sure Lloyds TSB will drag it out until the end. *Thanks for all the replies to my questions dealing with this difficult bank".

Hi Tenmen10

 

Reassuring to see someone else going through the motions.

 

What kind of things did you write in your letter to Lloyds TSB solicitors? Not sure if I should do the same - sounds a good idea. Though if the recent reports on the website of having to go to court before the settlement happens then it may not work.

16th May - Sent bundle on website (the zipped one) and witness statement to court and Lloyds TSB solicitors.

 

31st May - Not received any court bundle from Lloyds TSB so rang court who said that Lloyds TSB had agreed to settle today (case would have been tomorrow).

31st May - Tried ringing SC&M but all lines are busy. Hopefully will receive letter tomorrow to confirm settlement, otherwise will double-check with court.

1st June 2007 - Be careful of another Lloyds TSB trick. I called their solicitors today to confirm they had settled. The said they had sent a cheque on 29th May for a figure which looks like the amount without interest. My court hearing would have been today so I don't think I have much chance to dispute it! However I am happy with the amount as I was not sure I was going to get anything!

 

Letter did not mention any conditions other than the fact that the settlement was in no way admiting liability!

 

1st June 2007 - Banked cheque for £937.41!
