    • No I didn't I got the dates mixed up.   
    • Sorry about that, TJ. The person who posted it specifically said it was free access. Here's another version of the FT article. https://archive.is/KYrPa
    • Isnt there some indication in there of at least intent to inform arbuthnot? IF he wasn't then it would seem to be Vennells decision to keep him 'uninformed .. Although seems to me if arbuthnot was unaware - he was either incompetent or should have very detailed records of denials. Seems vennells is constantly at the core of all the lying about all these issues though.

    • 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.

Can anyone help. My friend has had a letter from the Child Tax Credits saying she has been overpaid by £6000 and they want it back! She says she has phoned them at least a dozen times in the past 3 years to say she thought they were overpaying her and they have assured her time and time again that the payments were correct.

 

She doesnt know where to turn and i thought this site might have a thread as i have heard on tv that it seems to have happened to a few others. Can anyone advise me

In 2005 I was told that I had been overpaid by £3000+ even though I had given the correct info to them. It was actually one of the advisors who had given me the wrong info. My husband receives a private pension which they told me doesn't count as income, then 18mths later decided that it did.

I wrote a letter of appeal to them explaining the conversations in detail that I had with them, I had no names or dates(just rough timings) and told them that as I was not trained in their line of work that what I was told by them I had to believe was right. I didn't hear anything for 4mths and decided to phone them to be told that I should have received a letter (I hadn't) informing me that it was still recoverable. I couldn't even get a copy of it as no one seemed to know which dept sent it.

Anyway, I dug my heels in, as I knew I was in the right, and wrote a letter to the Inland Revenue Directors,Tax Credit Office, Preston PR1 0SB explaining everything in detail again. A few weeks later got a phone call to say I had won my appeal. From what I could gather they must have tracked down a recording of the conversation that I had with the advisor.

So, even if you don't have any record of names/dates it is worth writing to them, just give as much detail as possible.
