              Answered
              Last year, Forbes installed new ****** windows in my home at great cost like $40,000. One of the screens had a hole in it. It took about 10 calls and emails to get anyone to answer my calls to get it replaced and then they never contacted me when it came in. After another round of 20 calls and emails, there was finally one time when an actual person picked up the phone. They said the screen was in. Later I received a voicemail for a delivery date but I was not available and asked to reschedule. I am now at the mark of having left 20 voicemails w no call back and one of their lines has the mailbox full. All I want is ny screen delivered to replace the one with holes. This shouldn’t be so hard and the lack of customer service is disrespectful and appalling.

              I am not happy with this company. Back in 2017 I bought 12 new windows. Very shortly after they were installed I had 4 of them that would not stay up. I have reached out to this company at least 4 times now. 1 time they said they would send someone out and then 2 times they would have someone call me. Here it is 5 years later and my windows are still that way. Now I am filling a claim with the window company to try to get them either fixed or replaced. They were not top of the line windows but I was told they were good windows. All I want is my window to be able to stay up without a piece of wood under it. I reached out to the owner just a month ago and still have heard nothing. Just fix my windows please.
