  1. Basically, Viduka is a decent option but we'd rather we didn't have to sell Milner to buy him. Shall we all just agree on that and put this one to bed?
  2. Stick Owen in a bikini and him and Viduka will be able to go to the Christmas fancy dress as Jabba and Leia.
  3. Nope, never have and I don't plan to. I think people that do should be banned for life.
  4. From .com. I don't mind the idea of Viduka coming in, but if we're having to sell Milner to fund it we're obviously brassic.
  5. it's the whole ethos of the company though. if these complaints were a million miles from my own (limited) experiences I would dismiss them out of hand, but they're jarringly close. anyhoo I'll start looking for a different job, but stay with Weatherseal until I'm squared away with a new position with a company which won't sell their granma for a quick buck. 188690[/snapback] I would try to stay away from sales if you don't want to work for a company with this sort of ethos tbh.
  6. Don't pack in cos I posted a couple of customer complaints, you puff! Although their techniques do seem to leave a bit to be desired. You've sold your soul to the devil tbh.
  7. Isn't there a bigger statue of Di and Dodi? I thought there was more to it than that - it's Al Fayed with his shirt open baring his chest or something. SSR posted a picture of it up on here with BUCKLE UP written around the bottom of the statue.
  8. Fish, do you know Ted Barber? I bet he's the one that texts you!
  9. We had Weatherseal fit our windows and doors last Dec and were totally stitched up by their sales manager ( a Mr Ted Barber) who sat in out house and basically told us a pack of lies about how we could repay the finance he sold us for our double galzing. All I will say is this A £9600 LOAN 13 MONTHS AGO IS NOW GOING TO COST US £10,200 TO SETTLE AFTER WE HAVE PAID £3000 IN DIRECT DEBITS SINCE LAST DEC. £4000 INTEREST IN 13 MONTHS? NEED I SAY MORE. YOU HAVE BEEN WARNED IF YOU WANT TO GET RIPPED OFF FOR A LOAD OF MONEY IN A SHORT SOPACE OF TIME GO TO WEATHERSEAL MY ADVICE STAY WELL CLEAR STAY WELL CLEAR STAY WELL CLEAR ...
  10. The worst thing i`ve ever done is to fall for the crap of a weatherseal windows salesman.I had windows fitted just over 1 year ago costing me £2800 for 5 crap windows. I woke up yesterday morning to find rain pouring in through the window, a puddle in my living room and my rug soaking.I immediately called customer services, what a joke,i was told the engineer might call but she did`nt know when.2 days have passed and still no phone call.I have been calling them constantly only to have them hang up on me.My blood is boiling with this company.They must be exposed.I only wish i`d looked on this site and i would never of let them through the door.I am totally disgusted in this company,20 year guarantee what a joke.They wont even take your call.I am in touch with citizens advice,i am never going to give up calling them until i get satisfaction from this terrible company.
  11. Im a retired joiner and do some little jobs in my spare time. The reason that im leaving a comment about weatherseal is because ive repaired some of the shambles caused by weatherseal employees. So im leaving tips for others to try. If you have wind howling in the inside of the windows (Trade name INGOES) then if you take them off (UPVC INGOES - the bit that goes all around the inside of the windoes)You will notice that there is a gap where they have cut away to install the new windows but have not filled them in. You should be able to put glass wool then a strip of gyproch. This will stop the wind howling in. If you dont the howling will get worse in the windy nights and it will also cause a cold spot around the window, so when you have your central heating on your room will be colder because the heat travels by convection and cools down when it hits the cold spot around the window. If you have got french doors fitted then look at the bottom where there are screws. There should also be a rain water channel where the rain escapes. If the screws are in the same line as the water channel then they have been incorrectly fitted and you will be entitled to a new unit as they are now faulty. Basically they affect the function of the doors. Check also at the bottom of each door and push , the chances are that the door will move by 20mm. So if someone wants to break into your home then he has a good start. Also check the fusion welds on each corner of the windows and doors. If the are split then you should get a new unit. Check their website for their specification on fusion welds. I could go on and on about this company. I thought that this was down to a bad installation squad but after reading all the comments on here im not so sure. They should give these guys a trade test like in the good old days. Saying that their product isnt upto much either. Take it from me dont let Weatherseal fit any of your windows or doors. Im surprised they dont turn up on horses! OH DEAR!
  12. Having had a recent experience with Weatherseal there is no way the words 'integrity' and 'professional' should be used to describe them - thankfully I'm just talking about their sales technique - I wasn't stupid enought to go with the quote and on reading this site I am glad. I had a chap in for 3 hours as I am looking for a conservatory. Pleasant enough and gave me a run through of the comapny's history. An hour later he finally got round to showing me samples. Now the sample window was quite good and eventually I was given a price - a ridiculous price in my book. When my wife and I said "thanks but too expensive" the astonished salesperson wished to know why (as I had ageed with him that it was a good product). I told him why. 1) I was given a quote by another reputable company which was £7, 000 less. 2) A family member had a conservatory fitted by this reputable company which was bigger than the one I was quoted for with a more complicated roof design ( I was only wanting 'lean to'. 3) On the other quote, ALL windows opened at the top. On this quote only 2 opened as standard - It would be £160 for each additional one. 4) On the other quote there was 3 plug sockets, 2 wall lights and a TV ariel socket. On this there was 1 light and 1 double socket as standard - the rest would be extra. I thought that these were good reasons to be going on with however he then said "OK, what if I can give you a better price - but you'd have to sign for it tonight" At this point my blood boiled as this guys pitch was straight from Watchdog. I told him I didn't want another price and it was time to go. He phoned his boss, the sales manager who wished to speak to me (suprise, suprise). The sales manager seemed to be quite upset that I didn't want to know his 'salesman's' second price. I advised him that I didn't go in for all this "wait till I phone my boss to see if I could get a better price" nonsense. I also pointed out that, whilst the sales guy was pleasant enough (but not very good, truth be told - i.e.at no point did he ever ask the type of roof I was wanting - glass, polycarbonate etc....) he had been in for 3 hours which was ridiculous. The conversation then went like this: Sales Manager:"if I give you an offer you can't refuse will you sign up for it tonight?" Me: "No" SM "Why not" Me "It's just the way I am. I would like a short period to think about any offer" SM "What if I said 5 grand?" Me "Nope, I'd still want to think about it" SM "Is that because you are stupid?" At this point I thanked him for his professionalism and bid him goodbye. So there you have it. In a nutshell, a company who get stroppy if they don't get a sale out of you. My sister also swears that they were on Watchdog due to their high pressure sales technique but the salesman was not aware of this - wouldn't surprise me though! The company's product seems to be good, however, a common thread seems to be the 'sales technique' and going by the shpeel I got from the salesman and the pathetic attitude of the Sales Manager, If you really wish to get Weatherseal out for a quote, I would be giving them a time limit of one hour maximum 'cos that's all it should take.
  13. Have you got any more lines that you use, like the buy cheap, buy twice one? Haway what are the must-say phrases you've been given?
  14. Do you think it's Freddy sending the texts? I can see him sat at his desk, tongue sticking out with concentration. OMG UR GONNA LUV IT. WE R SIGNIN VIDUKA. LOL. XX
  15. Respect the window......Tame the customer.
  16. I'm sure your text alerts will ensure you get a peaceful evening 188609[/snapback] There better not be too many at 25p a pop.
  17. I wonder if he's been told to use the You Buy Cheap, You Buy Twice line on the customers. Probably got it on his business card tbh. Tattooed across his lower back.
  18. Have you got your Weatherseal underpants on, company man? I think it's great that you REALLY believe in your product, you gimp!
  19. I'm going to bed like. No way am I staying up to midnight to be disappointed.
  20. I don't think he's been all that good so far this season tbh. I'm not saying we should sell him or anything, but I wouldn't say I'm convinced by him yet.
  21. I don't think there's much doubt that that article has it pretty much spot on. I certainly wouldn't be complaining if it was us that was acclimatising them to the Premiership though.
  22. Something MUST be happening though because Roeder surely wouldn't agree to dilute the strength of the squad further. It's a shame though because from a midfield perspective we finally had some options from the bench and looked like we were building a proper squad (ONLY from a midfield point of view). Now we're dismantling it with no time to put it back together.
  23. PRE-ordering?! That's even worse! Don't be surprised if she dumps you before the week's out.
  24. Not wishing to appear pessimistic, but I can't help but feel that he might be moving on to bigger and better things.
  25. Why bother when we're not signing anyone, mongtard! 188538[/snapback] RIGHT! I shan't tell you from now on dickweed!
