Dear So and So

[indysteel]

That's interesting, Pax. We originally used this contractor because they are one of only two in the area certified to install the Marvin windows we wanted. But from the moment the windows went in, the sales guy started hounding us about a review. This was last winter. Well, we were not planning to review them until we'd had the windows for awhile as problems with the installation or product aren't always immediately apparent. In the meantime, he called both of us repeatedly about writing a review. I was SO close to telling him off. Much to my regret, we decided to use them again for a door repair and to replace our basement windows. The sales guy was here last night to signthe contract and he asked us for a review three times in the space of an hour. The irony is that we'd be fine with giving them one if he'd just stop asking us to. I'd get into it with him, but until the work is completed, I'd rather not get on guavas side.

I work on a board with AL's CFO. I might mention to him just how obnoxious contractor's can be in using the "service.". Maybe they don't care, but it seems to me that they should discourage businesses from hitting people over the head in an effort to get a review.
