  We ordered 2 windows from Renewal by ******** quoted a price of $6,935.00 told this was the best price. Another rep came out and remeasured our windows. Price went up to $ ***** after we asked it this was the best price were we offered a $300 military discount. This price included a mandatory Parking permit and price was set by City of ******* $550. Permit issued 3-28-24 Signs were posted but Parking was not readily available to them, and I went to the neighbors to have their cars moved or be towed. 1 moved 1 did not . A rep from ******** did offer to split the cost of the parking permit. Our windows are paid in full and still waiting for half of the permit. (I called their office last week and spoke to a rep in billing and she told me " a request by their rep for reimbursement was done on April 20 and would take 2 weeks to process.) Our windows went in April 4, why did it take 16 days to request this? Were they hoping I forgot about it? I went to the ********** office about this fee and found out the City charged them $71.50. I have sent numerous emails and placed several calls questioning why we were charged $550.00, During last week call I was told a rep would contact me. I told them I was going to the media. Still no reply.I feel we were mislead. Their first rep should have told us about the military discount when we question about best price. As well as told us about the parking permit. We are seniors on a very tight budget and would not have agree to a cost of $*****. for 2 windows when we are selling the building. Our hope is that this is a wake up call to them to be upfront with all cost and offer the best price when asked. As well as get the answer why they lied to us about the cost of the Parking Permit. /

  On 03/09/2024 we had a Renewal by ******** sales representative out to our house for a window replacement estimate. After an initial estimate of $67,000 we balked at the offer and the sales rep was able to get the cost down to $35,000. We reluctantly signed the contract and after a day reflecting on the actual cost, we decided to cancel. This is when the customer service at ********************** by ******** had ended. Despite numerous attempts to contact anyone other than the sales rep, no one has returned our calls or emails. We would like someone from the company to verify the contact has been cancelled and that the loan we had signed is terminated.

  

  Business Response

  Date: 03/18/2024

  We have contacted the homeowner and emailed a confirmation of the cancellation. We will continue working with the homeowner until resolution is reached.

  Purchased a double door and 3 sliding doors for our home. The double doors were installed wrong. Reported to Renewal by ******** sent a couple of technicians after NUMEROUS amount of phone calls because they do not call you back. Finally after getting a hold of them and the technicians came out they temporarily fixed fixed the door but within 2 weeks the door got worse. Again after NUMEROUS phone calls and 2 months later they sent a head technician and said they have to order another front door because the doors have warped. This was in November of ************************************** update on our doors. Left NUMEROUS messages with customer service and Manager ***************** but no phone call. We have a gap between our doors now so our heat is escaping and the doors get worse daily. We are reaching a year since we purchased these doors. This company does not care about their customers or honor their priorities to repairing what their contractors did. Communication is horrible.

  We contracted with Renewal by ******** to replace windows in nearly our entire house. They did an excellent job and we were pleased. However, weeks after the installation, we experienced a severe hail storm and the "window wraps" were pitted. We filed a claim with our homeowners' insurance and they replaced our roof and repaired a car. ******** provided an estimate of repair but ************** questioned their total and asked for additional information. Nothing has happened since despite many emails to ********. My contact at Renewal by ******** has been ****************************** repair#A-4901837. I have a series of emails if that would be helpful. We also have a leaky window that they planned to repair when they fixed the window wraps.

  We signed a contract and entered into an installment loan for new windows from Andersen in February 2022. We were told by the salesperson that the loan would not use our home as collateral, because they would treat it as a personal loan - we had no debt and excellent credit. Two years later, we find out Andersen lied about that, and a lien is in place on our home. I then get told I need to pay another $100 fee just to get the lien removed after paying the loan off early.

  Purchased 4 windows for installation via order #********. Upon installation, I asked the installer about placing insulation back in the cinder block which as removed. He said he would once he measured and ensured fitting of trim work. I'm not sure if he did or not.I also noticed the gap between the windows and frame were 1/4" or larger. The person who measured said they design with 1/8" parameters.I also questioned some light after initial spray foam and was told it would be taken care of from the outside. Not sure if it was.After installation was completed, I noticed that one of trim boards were cracked. I also informed them that cold air was coming from the windows. I contacted the ** who handled the process who reached out the salesperson who then contacted me. He was supposed to find answers to a couple of questions and come out to check the work. No further communication was received.I purchased a FLIR to measure the temperatures and verified there was air coming in from the trim.During a cold snap in January, the windows were allowing more cold air. Looking closer, condensation was on the windows and there was actual ice on the bottom of the large picture window.All four of the newly installed windows showed condensation and ice while my other windows did not. I sent an email with pictures of the ice and moisture to the ** handling the installation. They are going to schedule someone to come out and check.I would like the windows replaced when the weather is warmer with new non-defective windows.

   I am rejecting this response because:

  The case cannot be closed until all the issues have been resolved.  It has taken quite some time to get a response on this issue and this is first confirmation I received that the date provided was confirmed.  I did not receive a response from the office when stating the date work and if everything will be resolved.   This it taking far too long to get resolved since issues were reported the week after the windows were installed.
