    • 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.

Hello people

 

I have today got to the point of no return with Lloyds. Ive realised ive been chraged 70 quid this month by lloyds for charges and a potential (without looking at my statements) £3000 for the past three years which is how long I have been with Lloyds.

 

I wanted to come on here to see what kind of a responce i can get and some help because im sooo lost.

 

What do I need to do?

I have registered for online banking with Lloyds in order top obtain previous statements for the past three years free of charge is this the right route to take?

 

Should I open another account else where?? What further stuff or information do i need to collate befroe I launch attack with a drafted letter from this fab site?

 

Can anyone assist me in the correct process I should take and reasure me that I dont have anything to worry about. Im basically concearned that I will get my bank account closed And as its the ony account I can use to process my salary and pay my mortgage oput from??

 

Hope someone can help...

Read here and take your time, it is allot to take in:

http://www.consumeractiongroup.co.uk/forum/faqs-please-read-these/25457-guide-reclaiming-bank-charges.html

 

First thing you need to do it obtain all your statements, if you do not have them you will have to do a SAR:

 

http://www.consumeractiongroup.co.uk/forum/bank-templates-library/516-1-data-protection-act.html

 

Lloyds generally do not close bank accounts, but to be safe open a parachute account.

 

You will be fine, just persevere and you will get all your charges back. You will have to commence legal proceedings and it will take about around 6 months but it is worth it.

Hi,

 

See you started that thread, excellent!

 

Statement of manual intervention.....hmmm not to sure what this is either, but i have seen it mentioned on this site i think. Pretty sure it was someone who was having difficulty in obtaining info from Lloyds, but cannot remember. Maybe someone else can shed more light?

 

Read up on the Step By Step instructions in the FAQ section (Guido provided a link to this section). These instructions take you through the whole process from start to finish, and should answer most of your questions. If you are still unsure as what to do, post again and we will guide you.

 

In my opinion, it is safest to open a parachute account. Although Lloyds do not generally close accounts due to penalty charge claims, they have been know to do so, and the effects of this could be very stressfull!

open a basic account with another bank, one which does not have a monthly charge. Transfer your Direct Debits - standing orders etc so you can operate from this account during your claim, and you'll be safe in the knowledge that Lloyds cannot hurt you in this way.

 

If you are registered for internet banking, you will be able to view all your statements for the past 3 years. Lloyds also give you the option to view bank charges only. This is very handy, saving you the hassle of going through the statements to pick them out! ;)

If you can do this, i don't think you will need a "Statement of manual intervention"

 

hope this helps!
