Did you want windows before they phoned you?0 -
even if the company is genuine, the catch is likely to be that they want you to purchase new doors to match the so-called `free windows`, or maybe the windows needed for your house are of a supposed non-standard size, not covered by the offer......people pushing this kind of trick generally hunt in two`s and will try every trick in the book to get you to sign up.
i`d certainly be very wary.0 -
whats the name of the company? ask them if they're registered as a company. dont just let them into your house , like someone already siad thy're probably casing the house for potential burgalry or anything.0

lol, I've sold windows for a few years. What you all describe is a standard 'blag'. They ask if you work to find out whether they should pitch you with a cash deal or for a finance deal which earns the rep more.
There's no such deals at all.0 -
i had similar experience. you pay 4 them initially but the more friends you recommend that buys windows from them ,you then get your money back according to how much new business they get -which is how thay can say its free!!!. it is a scam and not worth the hassle . it took me hours to get rid of the rep . they just do not take no for an answer !!!!!0
