Thank you for expressing your concerns.
Unfortunately due to the manufacturing process being out of our hands we are unable to control their lead time which is why all our timelines are estimated only, this is clearly stated on both the front and back of the contract.
We did get your window to us as soon as possible and apologized for the inconveniences you incurred. We also kept you up to date with the production process and let you know as soon as we were able to install, as well as providing a reserved date to ensure no further delays.
Since you still have an outstanding balance with us I will waive that amount so your account is now current and closed with us. ?I apologize for the delay and the inconvenience, if you would like a copy of the contract please let us know and we can email it or mail it over to you.Initial Complaint

May 19th measure and create my order.6 windows & 1 slider; Total 12, 897$October 12th [142 days 20 weeks 10weeks overdue] 5 windows & 1 slider installed Front window missing. November 3rd install missing window [see image]oSuggested they come whenever they can and look at window and call to discuss 8th told by ******************** the tech tried calling and knocking but couldnt reach me. He fixed the issues with your screens.oAt no time did I give permission to alter anything attached to my home.?My suggestion was to call and discuss oThe issues were not explained prior to modifying or post modification to my understanding.*** was referred to as a fix and explained as a necessity due to the window ledge ?When asked if its a routine application for this type of window why was it not done during installation [but rather left with a large gap] and why couldnt the oversight be immediately identified in the images [but rather framed as an issue requiring discussion to determine the fix] I received an evasive response not directly addressing any of my questions.December 2nd Please elevate. You did not address any of my statements emailed to ***********************, administrative support specialist.I asked an acquaintance who offered to assist with reading the drawing sent as it relates to my questions. His feedback Regarding the bowing and patch job, his opinion was there was a mistake with the installation that created the bowing. He could not speak confidently to the integrity of the security the screen is supposed to offer. Looks like a rush job. There are design differences from other 5 screens such as the large holes in the frame and this black rubber that doesnt fit in the frame and bows outward, as well as the seams are not clean and smooth. January 19th no reply for next level of customer service support.7 Months today from original order date and 3 months from installation date No accountability. No transparency. Evasive. Dismissive.Business response

Hi *****,
We have attempted to contact you multiple times to have someone come out and address your issues with the order. Including having one of our team join your friend/independent contractor to provide assistance and discuss the problems with the installation, however we have had no response back regarding this and no communication about us having someone come out to you.
I would happily have this taken care of including remaking the order to satisfy the areas of concern if they are unable to be addressed on site.
I will reach out on Monday to set up this with you.
Thank you*******************

I sent a detailed timeline. I requested my concerns be elevated. I am still awaiting the fulfillment of this request. This reply was not the answers to my questions. I have answered every communication in as timely a manner as any person who works graveyard shifs. I can provide the actual communication for your review if you prefer. My responses were detailed. Critical questions remain unanswered. Note I offered to conced if you could produce an image of another job that required this manuever so I can verify what I was being told, to no avail. Please take the time to address my concerns in writing for the purpose of accountability as I am no longer confident your intentions are good natured. Had I been included in the resolution with transparency, versus the actions taken, my perspective would be different. You may send the remaining balance, MINUS the window in which I am expressing concerns, to geensky if you wish. Someone should want to speak to EVERYTHING that occurred with transparency. Please and thank you.Customer response

I will also be informing our lead technician in ********* of the problem so he can also advise.I will have the team reach out today to organize our senior tech take a look at the problems you are having and provide solutions that work for you.

I am rejecting this response because Boss Security Screens sent a certified letter threatening to place a lean against my home after I report to the BBB.I have submitted proof of written communication with BSS contact *********************** 12/2 1957 "Please elevate. You did not address any of my statements.". Followed by customer feedback on the ******************** platform about my experience approximately 12 weeks later after request was not honored.
I acknowledge response to written communication sent by **********; via SMS 1/23 **********. I do not recall ***** acknowledging my request to elevate or her status as superior taking over per escalation process. Despite this I responded immediately to her communication and have participated in the resolution process.

*******************There was another failed attempt to complete my order. All the screens are installed, but I was given the wrong screen. The middle screen needs a lock for access to clean the window from the outside second wall Saturday comes they try to re-key. My locks with new locks changed out the back screens, but sent the wrong lock for the front screen. they wanted their technician. To drill a hole into the screen to add a lock and thats not how it comes from the manufacture. so here has another temp to cut corners. Instead of doing the job correctly.

To Whom It May Concern,
I'm unable to attach the records pertaining to this customer but we submitted them separately by email to your office. We've placed his order with the factory and due to supply chain issues the production was delayed.
The latest update from the factory was that they will be shipping it out by February 13 at the latest. We agreed to install it by February 28 and communicated with the client accordingly.Customer response
