Thermal Gard
Collin April 7, 2009
I had Thermal Gard replace my windows in the 1990's and after about ten years have lost there argon between the glass panels. They have become very cloudy and are an eye soar to the house. I contacted Thermal Gard and was told they no longer warrant the windows after ten yrs of ownership. For about $85 each they would send new panels, I don't think so. I just wanted to pass the information along to anyone who is thinking about Thermal Gard. I wouldn't recommend them if you plan on living in the house for any length of time. I... read full review »

I read a complaint and had an identical situation: I ordered a gear replacement kit online toward the end of Feb. I received an automated email saying my item was back-ordered and will ship out in a couple of weeks. A couple of weeks went by and I emailed requesting information on the status of the order. No response, so I call them, and the automated system makes you leave a voicemail, where no one calls back. I did finally receive another automated email thanking me for my order, but there wasn't any details at all. I searched on their... read full review »

Pella Windows/slim shades/screens
Tired 'Ol Trooper April 6, 2009
In 2004 we moved into our new home built with all Pella slimshade Windows and doors. Within two months, one of the "raise/lower" devices broke. Local Pella dealer came right out and replaced screen with different design. It works great BUT is completely different in appearance that nine other windows in same room. In addition, none of the slimshades will stay up. They slowly fall to about half way with some of the shades facing up and other facing down. Looks kinda crappy too. Now another screen has a broken cord. All this AND... mosture between the panes! My advice... buy Andersen Windows!!! read full review »

Walter E. Smithe Furniture
Irvin April 6, 2009
I placed an order with Walter E. Smithe for an oversized couch, chair and ottoman for the living room of a new condo I was purchasing. The sales person told me to go ahead and place the order since it would take a couple months to complete the order. The next day I called the salesperson to say I reviewed the measurements for the living room and the furniture would not fit. This call and several other phone calls I placed were not returned so I finally went back to the store. The salesperson and the manager told me they would not modify... read full review »

Suresh Pai April 6, 2009
This utility company does not provide a proper service. Their charges are astronomical and their monolopy must be wiped out. I am attempting to do phone enquiry on my account - on each occassion I called to speak to the operator (I called at least 4 times in the span of a couple of hours), I am informed by their automated service that I am going to be connected to a representative but their system hangs up on me. We pay such rediculous prices for our energy and they say they want to provide the highest level of customer service, but... read full review »

Hague Water installed a $9, 000 system for our new house in January 2007. they knew we had no public water supply in our area and would be getting water from our pond. they promised us crystal clear water. 2 years later the only thing crystal clear is they don't know what they are doing and are very willing to keep selling us more and more equipment hoping to someday fix the problem.

Northstar Alarm Services
Fedel April 6, 2009
We signed a contract with these guys in June of 2003 when a salesman came by our home. It seemed like a decent deal- service charges of $50/month for 3 years in return for a security system and service for those months. We soon found that the service was a ripoff, as we didn't receive anything from it even when the alarm went off. That being said- we called in July of 2006 to see when we could cancel and what the termination fee would be. There was a stiff penalty involved (I can't remember how much), so we agreed verbally on the... read full review »

Sears - Washing Machine
Elaine April 6, 2009
My washing machine from Sears first needed repair on December 15, 2008. At which point it was determined by the technician that the door needed a simple repair. Once the part was sent to my house another technician came to the house and luckily checked the machine a bit more an determined that there was a much larger repair to be done. If I remember correctly 5 new parts were sent. the technician came and found one of the parts broken... reordered it, and 10 days later was back. Many hours later...machine still did not work!

Yesterday I purchased Norton 360 version 3.0 on a 2-year deal and downloaded it apparently successfully on to Computer A but found it disabled the connection to Computer B which shares files, printer and internet access hosted on Computer A. I attempted to download a second copy of Norton 360 for Computer B but could not direct it there so placed it in a separate directory on Computer A until I could restore the connection.

Adding to the collapse of the USA; Lowe’s Dept stores have ceased to carry industrial size containers of Liquid Nails!

Oncor will not tell you or they say they do not know how much they are going to charge you for anything. How can you agree to a charge if you don't know if it is going to be $10 or $500? They say there will be "calculated" charges. What does that mean? I am a single mother of three with no help trying to keep my bill down and I get charged $80 for them doing their job not to mention three $2.21 charges for these new meters that we have no say so in. Now they say they will not waive any of the fees and I get no answers from Stream or Oncor. read full review »
