    • 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 been doing the schedule thing...i must have gone wrong with my adding up..this way it adds up to about £4,250...i got it to £5900 inc court costs...oops, does this disqualify me..should i write to them and explain that i am stupid/tired/single mother of three who can't add up?

Is you figure calculated by using the spreadsheets?

 

In the Barclays defence #1 does it say anything about you not providing evidence?

 

This is the problem we have when people start posting threads when theyre already at the court stage.. we have no idea of what they have / havent done.

 

best thing for you to do is post a diary of what you have done right back to the SAR

3.Was offered £990 as only and final settelemnt offer, but i declined this.

did you use a template similar to one from here, accepting as part payment but continuing for the full amount?

 

my POC was very scant and 'vague', I merely stated that I had been charged £5,900 and would like it back with interest,

I think this will be a major part in their defence.

 

the actual figure is just over £4,250.
This will have to be amended

 

Okay, You need to speak to the guys at the court,preferably in person, so they can explain it to you better face to face , tell them your errors and you wish to amend the claim, [this may cost you £65]

 

Take with you your new POC's and your updated SOC's

Once sorted send a copy to Barclays [recorded delivery]

 

dont worry about the court they are friendly and understand that you are not trained in the legalities etc.

No, didn't accept the £990 as interim payemnt.
did you flatly refuse the offer?

Northampton advised me that it was too late to do an amendment as barclays have defended the claim and to wait until i get their defnce and submit everything to the court..they said that AQ's are generally being done away with, but i might get one and can put everything on that?

lets hope you get an AQ then

 

as the amount is under £5,000 now, is the charge i've paid for costs £250 enough to cover the amendment, or do i have to pay this in addition as the court said that the payment should be £125 if my claim was under £5,00 which it wasn't but now it is?

Hi again Dar£n, sorry used a dollar sign before. I was offered £990 as a final offer, I said no, that I would pursue matters through the court if they couldn't increase it, they said they couldn't.

 

Was told by the court that I could send in my information to them once I've had barclays defence in writing. I think that it might be worth me sending my schedule to the bank and suggesting they reconsider, do you think this would be a good idea, or should I wait for the court date, as it seems from what saintly1 was saying, they generally pay then.

 

Thanks for all your help. Jackie

Hi Jax, Hmmm dont know what the court is advising you like that for, when you file with them to start proceedings you are supposed to submit your SOC's to both parties, if you dont Barclays will accuse you of not providing enough information and in fact use it in their defence, usually in statement #1, something like

The claimaint has not provided any information in connection with the charges.......

To be safe, I would send both a copy [by recorded delivery of course.]
