    • 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.

Apparently, the bailiff went in to the branch. Was told he needs to talk to their legal department and then the person he needed to talk to was not there. He assured me i will get my money and he is intending to call back to the branch nect week. According the the newspapers, the Abbey were issued with a writ.

 

I am suprised that he did not get the money yesterday as you say the bank would easily have had that money. I think the Abbey are really digging their heels in on this one.

 

My sons party was brilliant thnx

Don't forget to also claim the Bailiffs charges and the AQ charge and any extra interest. When you dooooo get the money go for the wasted time order for your costs as you have had loads of hassle.

 

My case is with the judge as we speak and hopefully I will know soon as to what the jusge will direct either a strike out of ABBEYS defence or he might take may directions which will get them to provide into court their evidence to backup their breakdown of their charging regime. I really hope that the judge will see them for the time wasters that they are.

DS, oooh, let me know what the judge comes back and says. You mentioned geting more costs from the Abbey? I was already awarded ££275 (and am exempt from fees) so costs are minimal.

Hi Reka

 

I read this article at work this morning my hubby phoned me, how fantastic the coverage you are getting. You will soon need a press secretary to organise the press and your TV appearances.

 

At the moment Abbey are in default of the order made by the Judge in your case, so how do they get a default registered against them! how does it work, does anyone know!!

 

Keep up the great work, your a winner in my eyes.

Thankyou for all your support!

 

There is still no sign of the money and they are well aware of the press interest.

 

I think they must be sulking because it went to court, something they are not at all fond of.

Don't tell me it got lost in the post - that old story, you would think they had got a more original story, and also where did they send it!!

The cheque will be in their 'system' awaiting some signature or other - after all they won't be able to do anything "without orders signed in triplicate, sent in, sent back, queried, lost, found, subjected to public enquiry, lost again, and finally buried in soft peat for three months and recycled as firelighters"
