8 yearsGot a call from Brighthouse earlier, some guy saying my window warranty was nearly up and he needed to come check them out to approve it. Told him I’d never had windows put in, just patio doors, but he kept going on about my name being on the warranty. Eventually, I agreed to a 2pm visit tomorrow, as he said someone from his team would be nearby then. Later, I looked up the number online and now I’m proper annoyed at myself for falling for it. If he actually shows, he’ll be met with a very chilly reception and I won’t hesitate to mention the police!Brighthouse8 yearsI got a call from someone claiming to be Bright Homes, saying my windows guarantee had run out and that they'd be sending someone over the next day to inspect them. When I tried asking questions, the woman just talked over me and then hung up abruptly. I tried ringing back, but got cut off twice. The third time, a man answered; I requested to speak to a manager, he said to hold while he checked, then just disconnected me. I looked this company up online and found countless reports about them, but it doesn't seem to stop their calls. I'm really worried about older folks or anyone easily fooled letting someone from this company into their homes, especially when they claim the windows need replacing. If you get called by them, best just hang up straight away.Brught Homes8 yearsGot a call from a lady claiming to be from Liverpool, offering to clean our windows for free. I told her I'm not interested if she’s trying to sell me something. Then out of nowhere, the call just dropped with a loud noise.Liverpool8 yearsI got a call from someone claiming to be from Bright Home about a 15 year warranty on double glazing they said was fitted at my place. Not sure if it's legit or just a sales pitch!Bright Home8 yearsThis one rings and straight away asks if it’s Mr C------, and once you answer yes, they just cut the call. Seems pretty sketchy if you ask me.C8 yearsLast week, I got a call from Bright Homes using a different number but the same area code. They told me our windows were nearly out of warranty and tried to set up an appointment for today (Monday) to inspect them. I turned down the offer. However, today, they rang this number to confirm a 2pm appointment with us. I'm a bit suspicious about the whole thing, feels like a tactic they might be using to get in and start pushing a sales pitch on us.Bright Homes8 yearsThere's this bloke at ESG named Tony, and honestly, he's such a pain in the arse.TonyESG8 yearsGot a call earlier from a woman who talked really quickly. She claimed to be from Bright House and said because my windows are over ten years old, they'd be sending out someone to do a free inspection. She mentioned knowing the installer but insisted they were working on behalf of the manufacturer. She was super pushy, trying to make it seem legit. When she asked if the time she booked was alright and I said no, she just hung up straight away.Bright House8 yearsGot a call from a sales guy trying to chat about a window they never installed. He got pretty rude and even threatened to come round to our place. Still waiting to see what he'll do next.8 yearsAbout 10 days back, I flagged EnergyGlass London using the number 0345 286 1689 to TPS. They got back to me saying they’d reached out to the company for their side of things. Now, these lot have started pretending to be from Blackpool numbers! I told TPS once more and luckily BT Call Protect stepped in and blocked them.EnergyGlass LondonTelephone Preference ServiceTPSBlackpoolBT Call Protect8 yearsThey had my name right but the address was way off, looked like they were using some old database. Tried to sell me a service to keep my windows updated, told em I could handle it myself and ended the call. Then blocked the number by signing up with 1572, which is free with BT.BT8 yearsOver the past week, I’ve gotten like 9 calls from these awful folks. When I told the guy to piss off, he told me the same and said I shouldn’t talk to him like that. Now it seems like they’re just calling to get a rise out of me. I really despise cold callers, they’re the worst.8 yearsGot a call on my landline, but they just cut off straight away, total waste of time really.8 yearsGot a sales call, bloody annoying prats!8 yearsI told the woman pretty clearly that I wasn’t interested and that my number’s on the TPS, so I couldn’t understand why she kept calling. She came across as quite rude and didn’t take no for an answer. When I said not to call back again, she cheekily asked what would happen if she did. I warned her I’d report her for harassment if she kept ringing.8 yearsThis company gave me a ring recently, and the man who showed up was really friendly and polite. He shared some useful tips on how to take care of my windows. I was quite doubtful at the start but I'm really happy I went ahead with the appointment. Definitely worth trying them out, I’d suggest it!8 yearsThis number has rung me a few times, and every time I pick up, there’s about a 10-second quiet pause and then they just hang up. It happened again on 30th April 2018. Honestly, it’s quite annoying.8 yearsTypical rubbish like always, I told them off and then just hung up straight away.8 yearsThey claimed to be clever with Windows, but honestly, seemed like total con artists trying to convince me to let them fix my windows. Not falling for that at all.8 yearsI got a call saying they were from smart glass, but when I told them cold calling's not allowed, they denied selling anything. That’s rubbish, they’re definitely pushing double glazing without following the rules. I’ve reported them to the telephone preference service and blocked their number. Wouldn’t recommend dealing with them at all - they’re untrustworthy. Best just tell them to stop calling and hang up straight away.Smart GlassTelephone Preference Service9 yearsA firm based in Blackpool gave me a ring just like before. I booked a slot because I wasn’t sure when the windows were last done, but after looking it up realised they’re only 7 years old, so I pulled out of the appointment. What’s worrying is how they got my info - I’m ex-directory and yet they seemed to know exactly who I am and my address.Blackpool9 yearsI got a phone call saying my windows were no longer under warranty. The man insisted it wasn’t a sales pitch, but when I asked how it related to my home since I’ve never had windows installed, he just kept going on about the windows being out of guarantee after 10 years. He mentioned a 15 to 20 minute check-up to look at seals and catches, plus a report and a free part for me. I tried a few times to ask if this was legit, but he kept repeating the same warranty spiel. In the end, I just told him I wasn’t interested and didn’t need the call.9 yearsGot a call today; my warranty with a well-known installer expired ages ago. Pretty sure this ‘inspection’ is just a way for them to push more work onto me.9 yearsI had pretty much the same thing happen, they said they were inspecting our windows since the warranty was nearly up. Mentioned something about fensa and giving a certificate when the guarantee ends. Seemed believable at first, but once I thought it over, it definitely felt dodgy.FENSA9 yearsGot a call from some muppet saying my windows were about to lose their warranty and offered a free checkup with some paperwork or whatever. Since a family member installed my windows, I’m pretty sure that’s just a load of rubbish.Submit Your Own Report (01253 477274)
