    • 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 started a MCOL at the beginning of May against Lloyds for bank :mad: charges amounting to £2007.50. They have just issued a defence (as per MCOL). I have not received any correspondence-what happens next?

 

Any help would be appreciated.

Hi

You should shortly receive a copy of their defence and you may receive an Allocation Questionnaire to fill in. These links will help you to fill it in if you get one:

If you don't get an AQ, read this:

Good luck, let us know how you get on.

Hello all,

 

I'm new to all this CAG stuff but great to see so many smart consumers working together.

 

I have a claim pending against LloydsTSB for charges which they are contesting on the 'these are service charges not penalties' line of defence.

 

I have since had a Transfer of Proceedings from Northampton to West London County Court at Hammersmith, in which LloydsTSB's solicitors (Sechhiari Clark & Mitchell from Brighton) have done a cut and paste summary of defence.

 

The paperwork shows the Northampton court had ordered an Allocation Questionnaire to be dispensed.

 

Apologies if I have missed relevant guidance elsewhere but I am unsure what to do/what will happen next and I can't tell if Lloyds are still bluffing or have found a workable defence.

 

Please advise if you can.

 

Many thanks,

 

hjaww :)

Hi

Was it the standard 9 point defence?

Have a read of this link to help you:

http://www.consumeractiongroup.co.uk/forum/general/80091-your-court-dispensing-allocation.html?highlight=dispensed+AQ

 

And please start up your own thread and then you can ask any questions on there.

Good luck!

hjaww - Just to let you know I've had the same 9 point defence.

 

No court date yet, so I'm sending them a nudge letter offering to settle for 80% of what I'm claiming.

 

Also going to copy the court in - and also chase after ten days.

Hi there Jenkins,

you sound like you are at the same stage as me!

Filled through MCOL 09/05/2007 acknowledged and then defended on 04/05/2007. Waiting to hear which court my claim is being transfered to. Gloucester is my local. They will write informing you. Plus informing you of any further paperwork required such as Allocation Questionare, which seem to be dispensed with according to previous info.

Whilst waiting I have today sent a letter to my bank asking for copies of documentation on my acc. since opening it 1977 and changing to joint acc. 1984. To include contract we signed and terms and conditions relating to that time. I have also told them that the letter and any further corrospondence will form part of my court bundle should it be required if my case goes to court. :D

Night Owl Vs Lloyds

Keep up the fight against Bank Charges.

Im at the same stage also,my case has just been moved to my local court in Mold, Flintshire. The covering letter states that the allocation questionnaire should be returned to them, but all I have attached is the banks defence. Im new to this and Im not sure what it is they want me to fill in. I think that maybe they havnt included it within this correspondance. Can someone please advise me what it should look like and how long Ive got to return it, or wether it'll be posted seperatley?:confused:
