  • You need to give them one chance to repair - if you haven't done that then they'll likely dispute the reversal of payment and get it back. 
  • Gave them loads of chances been phoning and emailing since November  thats why I had enough and contacted credit card company to dispute this ,they said they will now come Tuesday but if they don't fix issues can I get other company in to remove faulty windows and install new ones fit for purpose and give them windows back

    If you've had your money back from the credit card then maybe they're coming on Tuesday to take their windows back.

    If you have been refunded, why would they come back to fix them rather than remove them..

    You don't own the windows any more so they could just take them back leaving you with a cold, unsecured house.
