    • 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.

There are 2 documents below if someone could cast an eye over. First i'll breifly explain my situation then you'll know what i'm on about.

 

Took a mortgage out via a morgage broker in August 2004. Certain fees and charges were payable ( normal practice ). However, looking through my documents recently it appears that £1200 was taken from my funds for mortgage payment protection ( first document titled undertaking to release further advance monies). I have never received an insurance policy for this ( and i must stress that i have kept every scrap of paper re- my mortgage ) I dont know who the insurance is with or how long this lasts. I dont ever recall being spoken to about this or signing any insurance documents or what it includes. Yes it does have my signature on first document (this is'nt an insurance doc ) and nothing else. But, if you look in 2nd document titled mortgage illustration ( which i dont think is a legal document ) where it says monthly costs include - payment protection - declined. I have nothing at all that says i have an insurance policy only what you see on the doc. I am assuming it was a single payment. Can anyone suggest if i can do anything about this. Much appreciated. x

Seems pretty open and shut to me. Go back to them and demand an explanation. If you're not satisfied, then hie thee to the Financial Ombudsman as quick as you can...they'll take a pretty dim view I'm sure.

Robertxc v. Abbey - £3300 Settled in full

Robertxc v. Clydesdale - £750 Settled in full

Nationwide v. Robertxc - £2000 overdraft wiped out, Default removed by order of the sheriff

Hi,

They seem to have supplied you with all you need to hang them out to dry.. Clearly states PPI Declined yet they have deducted £1200 for PPI..

 

I would do as Robertx suggests, go back to them demand and explanation along with your £1200 plus Interest.. and complain to the FOS and the FSA

Hiya Dobbydog,

 

Thanks for your support on the other thread, much appreciated:D Take copies of all correspondence and sent it to them along with your letter,it will save time as they will probably ask for them.

 

I feel it is only fair to ask for the interest that they applied to it. The time frame for the Company would be 14days, if it is the fos, anything up to 8 weeks

 

Good luck

Hello,

 

know what you mean, I wanted to get out of there and it was my thread:o Did you read my last post on it:D

 

I would have though that they would have applied interest to the ppi, what interest rate did they apply to your mortgage.

 

Did you write to them and ask for a breakdown of it. Did you get the information from a SAR??

 

Can you let us know

Hello Dobbydog,

 

Personally I would sent a full SAR so you can see what they have been up to. You may be shocked:o

This is a full SAR Template, amend it to your own details and send it with your £10 payment recorded delivery and wait. They have 40days to comply, or they break the law.

Ok, update .....

 

Have received all paperwork as requested by my SAR.

 

Loads and loads of stuff ( mostly irrelevant to this )

 

There is an PPI certificate which before now i have never clapped eyes on ! :confused:

 

There is also an application for PPI which was done by the mortgage broker, conducted online as the web address is at the bottom.

 

My mortgage completed on 12th Aug 04 and the application and certificate is from 20th Aug 04.

 

Additionally there is a another document which clearly states PPI declined ( by me ).

 

Not sure where to go with this now :confused:

 

I think the only thing i have got to back my case up is the documents which say declined.

 

According to the certificate the policy was for 3 years which of course has now finished. But surely i would have never been able to excersise my rights within the policy having never had a copy until now and also never knowing i had a policy untill now.

 

Do you still think i have a case here ? Any comments would be gratefully received ;-)

Hi Hell. Was wondering what you think of the letter i'm going to send. I've pinched a bit from you :) hope you dont mind. Many thanks.

 

 

 

Dear sir/madam

xxxx and xxxxxx have been acting as mortgage intermediary for me since the year 2003 under my right to buy. A successful mortgage was completed with xxxxxxxxx on 12th August 2004.

Looking back through documents I have in my possession, it appears that the sum of £1200 was taken from my advanced monies by xxxx and xxxxxx for Mortgage Payment Protection Insurance (MPPI). I have been unaware that this MPPI ever existed due to the fact that at no time have any documents ever been issued to me.

After applying for a Subject Access Request (SAR) from xxxx and xxxxxx and which I received on Thursday 20th September 2007, it appears that a MPPI application was conducted via the internet by xxxx and xxxxxx on 20th August 2004 and a MPPI certificate starting from the same date is included. These documents have not been brought to my attention until my SAR.

As you can see from various highlighted documents, of which I have enclosed copies, MPPI was clearly declined by me. If I may draw your attention to the “Mortgage Illustration” prepared on 28th June 2004 it clearly states MPPI declined. Additionally, may I draw your attention to the “fees and features during mortgage”, MPPI is again clearly declined. In spite of this there has been £1200 taken from my advanced monies, (see the document dated 29th June 2004.)

When xxxx and xxxxxx acted as my Mortgage intermediary, I was not offered a full and detailed explanation of MPPI. No attempt was made to ascertain if the product was fit for purpose, suitable for my needs or if indeed I needed it at all. Additionally, no enquiry was made as to whether I had pre-existing insurance for accident, illness or unemployment and to reiterate again, was not provided with any insurance documents. I believe that all of the said mentioned is a requirement by you when selling MPPI. I can only assume that none of the above was conducted because I had clearly declined MPPI.

I believe that it is xxxx and xxxxxx policy to provide a quality client focused service. I also understand that under the Mortgage code, to which xxxx and xxxxxx subscribe, minimum standards are set of which good lending and advisory practises are to be followed. I believe that you have manifestly failed within the minimum standards. Additionally, I believe that your company have failed in the duty of disclosure as I understand that insurance contracts are of the utmost good faith which imposes on you a “duty of disclosure” of all material facts because one party is in a strong position to know the truth. I am frankly shocked that xxxx and xxxxxx have operated in this way as I had always reposed confidence in your integrity and expertise. Your failure to disclose is misrepresentation at common law. I believe that this act has prevented me from asserting my rights until now. I also believe that there are strong grounds for action against xxxx and xxxxxx under common law and consumer regulations.

I require that the monies of £1200 be refunded to me in full together with interest equal to the APR used by xxxx and xxxxxx or the relevant Insurance Company at that time.

I hope that you will enter into a sincere dialogue with me about this matter. I will give you 14 days from receipt of this letter to reply to me accepting, unconditionally my request in principle of a full refund of £1200 plus interest and letting me know a date by which I will receive payment.

I hope to get a positive response from you. However if you do not respond or respond positively I shall have no alternative but to pursue this matter through the Financial Ombudsman.

Yours Sincerely,
