    • 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.

thanks caro is could be helpful but when I get into the template and click on to cut and paste into my documents the icons wont click on? I am just worried that if I can't get into this letter how on earth will I retrieve the spreadsheet which I have already posed a question to.

 

If I can't get to the start how will I ever get to the finish?

 

Ive tried printing it off - no good only obtains half the letter. How are other people managing? Really like to know.

 

Kind regards.

Not sure which icons you're referring to maddison. Best method to copy and paste it though;

 

Left click, hold and drag the cursor over the text you want to copy. Right click on the highlighted text, and left click 'copy'.

 

Open up your text editor (IE: Word), right click on the blank page, and left click 'paste'.

 

Sorry if it comes across as condescending. If this doesn't work, try pasting the text into Notepad first (Start > Programs > Accessories > Notepad).

Hi reload, thanku for making it easy for me. Took me a while but got there. Easy when you know how!!!!!

 

Just sending to LTSB and Capital One.

 

Hope you will be there for me after 40 days and 40 nights have passed (haha).

 

Regards Maddison.

 

P.S: the icons I was talking about were the ones on the toolbar, but realised that is just for Word and not transferring documents to Word, if you get my drift.

Something I forgot to mention.

 

We were due to have a payment taken out of the bank on monday for a loan together with a mobile phone bill. No monies in bank. I telephoned the bank on Friday (16th) morning to explain and ask if they would let them go through as it would only be a couple of days before money would be in the account. Ok will get back to me.

 

Phoned today (thursday) but too late they had already put 2 charges of £35 (£70 for each DD) on when we were only at this point £5 o/d now we are £75o/d!!

 

Will be speaking again tomorrow.

Can't help you with that I'm afraid, not sent an SAR myself. I'm guessing Birmingham would probably be the best bet though - they seem to deal with the other letters quite fast, and are probably getting a fair few other DPA requests too.

Hi Maddison (et al)

 

As a sole trader myself I know exactly how you feel. I'll be following your case with interest and will post details of mine (once I've gone through this mountain of information).

 

By the way, anyone know if I can e-mail my DPA request to Penny Berryman?

 

Great site Dave, just glad I flicked over to Radio 4 the other week.

Probably best not to because of the £10 payment. 40 days start ticking when they get that. Best to follow the normal process.

 

Welcome by the way. Look forward to following your thread. (hint hint);)

Just been reading through the forum..... (does it never end?) :)

 

Maddison, if you've been using internet banking you can do a search under Statements for all Charges. It'll only go back four years, and you can only search 3 months at a time. I did it earlier and it only took me about 20 mins to get all I needed.

 

Also, as a sole trader you'll have to have kept all records for the past seven years anyway. So the first two years shouldn't be too much of a hassle.

 

Hope this helps.

 

Straight on to stage 2 now I know the sums involved I guess? :cool:

No the forum never ends. If you have all the info you need for the next stage then go for it. If you start your own thread we can all follow your progress.

 

Good luck.

Morning everyone, apologies for not going on line for several days but both myself and hubby have been quite poorly.

 

Thank you for all your comments just wonderful knowing we are NOT ALONE OUT THERE FIGHTING THESE GIANTS.

 

We decided to get a credit reference from Equifax, this was posted last week and we are looking forward to see how often LTSB or Capital One defaulted us hopefully 'interesting reading'.

 

We have decided to wait for this letter before progressing as I feel I may need to adjust the DPA letter accordingly. However I noted that we can go back online to 4yrs of statements for LTSB.

 

With regards to my previous note for the charges I mentioned it has taken me 8 days for a 'new business manager' to get back to me. She has waived the charges of £105 (3 x £35) for a 'good will gesture' how kind of her and unbelievable as we have telephone banking with them.

 

Kind regards to all Maddison.

Hi Maddison,

Just wanted to say you are not alone, I have been banking with LTSB for over 15 years and have a business account with them for just over 6 years. I have never has an overdraft facility on the business account and usually pay in every week, the charges they have applied in this time on this account amount to over £7k. I DPA’d them through there Birmingham office, 1st and 2nd letter through the same office with the usual “no thank you” from David Just (a popular name within the LTSB forum), went to local county court and served them on June 21st, they acknowledged the notice on 28th and now waiting for their defence. So just remember you are not alone and read as many threads as you can, it helps build the confidence in taking on the banks.

Good Luck

Ricky.
