    • 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.

You havent received a bundle for one reason only, they dont do it, they have no intention on going to court so theres no point in them preparing one.

 

Contact Hickey , dont take any rubbish from him, tell him you want a settlement decision by the end of the day or you will let it go to court.

 

if he starts talking crp, just say thank you it seems we cant agree, good bye.....he WILL call you back.

Hi katscash

 

I think you will have to do a seperate claim for what's called a waisted costs order. Have a look at thie thread below.

 

http://www.consumeractiongroup.co.uk/forum/barclays-bank/94734-wasted-costs-beginning.html

 

Also, just remember when you do go to court (If Mr Hickey hasn't got his finger out) your opening argument will be that barclays have failed to submit their court bundle and as such can not offer any defence. Case won in my opinion

Katscash,

 

Let him email or fax the offer to you. If it includes confidentiality clause, delate the clause and initial it.

 

If it says, "in full and final settlement of your claim", delete and amend to "full and final settl't of THIS claim"

 

Send it back to him and ask for immediate credit to your a/c.

 

If money not rec'd by 12th, go to Court and suggest short adjournment for B's to make pay't so you can discontinue your claim.

 

Slick

have emailed him, he has emailed back:rolleyes: i am not sure how you have amended the letter but if you keep it so it cover the whole of the particular claim it should be fine,( i asked about self litigation fee that people won in hull)he says these costs are not recovereable in a small claims court and we would ask a barrister to attend to argue about this point in the hearing.if you are willing settle for the amount i offered let me know? what does everyone think about this i will have to attend court now because i don,t have a fax so i will not recieve payment before court, has any one tried to claim self litigation fee? and how do you do this?:?

As Trucker suggests Take it to a branch of barclays tomorrow

 

Get in touch with your court

Hi, Dont tell the court you've settled till you have your cash safe, I faxed this to my court...

URGENT

HEARING OF BANK CHARGES xx July 2007 x pm

 

 

xxxxxxxxxxx Vs Barclays Bank

 

Case Number xxxxxxxx

 

F.A.O The Court Manager

 

 

I would like to politely request permission for this case to be adjourned for a period of 7 days to give appropriate time for funds to clear in my account before I end my litigation with Barclays in this instance.

 

I would like to add that Barclays have had every opportunity to end this claim and have waited till the last possible minute, wasting the courts valuable time, on one of many cases that are been settled.

 

 

 

 

Many thanks.

Katscash,

 

Not sure what others think but I would still go to Court on Thurs and ask judge to adjourn your claim for 7 days to allow Barclays to actually pay you. Keeps your case open till you get your money back.
