Subject: wanted to talk

I'm looking for a couple out in Bakersfield CA. Once I get going you will know who I am. I know you had some major issues through Pacesetter. I've dealt with both (mainly the mrs.)of you on almost a daily basis while working there(It wasn't a bad thing at all). I understand where both of you were coming from. I do know that the job did get completed (per management;I was no longer with the co.)with the help from someone in my office. You had sent me pictures of your windows and (you dealt with the Frenso office) I saw all the mistakes. I know things didn't get off on the right hand as your product were damaged, but I just wanted to let you know that I'm glad that things worked out for you and your family. The part I enjoyed was knowing that things got resolved for you and hopefully it wasn't that bad of an experience. I did everything that I could to help you out. I called the branch out there on a daily basis hoping that I would have some kind of good update for you. Hope all is going well. God Bless you all.
Also there are many customers out there that I do know that had issues with their products or someone (of any age) that was taken advantage of. I'm aware of some of the leagal battles that were put against Pacesetter as I have dealt with some of them also on a daily basis. I just want you all to know that I believe in treating people how you want to be treated. I did my best to help I just wish there could have been more done.
I have a family I have to support also. I didn't know how the company was going to turn out after new owners, but I've met the head people and everyone is right about them. All they do is care about themselves and how they can improve their finances. Like eveyone else on this web site as said in time they will get what they deserver and I hope it's a million times worse. Hang In. I'm just trying to take care of my family

THEY TOOK OUR INSURANCE AWAY FROM US AND DIDN'T TELL ANYONE (NATIONWIDE)YOU FOUND OUT WHEN YOU MIGHT HAVE BEEN HAVING A BABY IN THE HOSPITAL OR TAKING YOUR CHILD IN FOR A ROUTINE CHECK UP. THIS IS NOT A WAY A COMPANY SHOULD RUN A BUISNESS.
AS FOR ALL THE CUSTOMERS THERE WERE PLENTY OF EMPLOYEES THAT CARED ABOUT THEM. I HAD SOME GREAT RELATIONSHIPS WITH THE CUSTOMERS AND ALWAYS TRIED TO HELP THEM OUT IN ANY WAY THAT I COULD. WE WERE IN THE DARK ABOUT THE WHOLE THING OF THEM MOVING THE BUISNESS AND EVERYTHING THAT WAS LEADING UP TO IT. I DON'T THINK IT WAS FAIR THAT THEY WERE OUT THERE STILL SELLING PRODUCTS WHEN THEY KNEW IN ABOUT 2 MONTHS THE COMPANY WOULD NO LONGER BE THERE AND THE CUSTOMERS WARRANTY WOULD NO LONGER BE VALID. WE WERE UNABLE TO SAY ANYTHING TO ANYONE IF WE DID KNOW ANYTHING. THERE WAS SO MUCH GOING ON NOBODY KNEW THE REAL STORY; JUST YOUR MAIN GOSSIP. I'M SORRY TO ALL THE PEOPLE WHO HAD TO AND ARE GOING THROUGH THIS MESS BECUAUSE OF THIS. I DO WISH EVERYONE THE BEST AND HANG IN THERE. I BELIEVE YOU ALL WILL PREVAIL THOUGH THIS EXPERIENCE. JUST KNOW ONCE AGAIN NOT ALL PACESETTER'S EMPLOYEES WERE BAD. THERE ARE LOTS THAT REALLY CARED ABOUT THE PEOPLE AND THEIR PROBLEMS. GOOD LUCK; PLACES LIKE THAT ALWAYS GET BIT BACK IN THE BUTT FULL FLEDGED.

Yes,Pacesetter is a rip off. My husband and I found out the hard way. We were approched at K-mart by someone talking about the pacesetter corp. regarding home improvement. We had been thinking about taking out our patio doors and having french doors installed , but we were not sure we could do the job our selfs, so we called the pacesetter corp. and they sent someone down for a free estimante.
After deep thought on their proposal we dicided to have them install the doors.They put the doors in Novemberof 2004. Thats when the problems started, the doors would not shut right ,there was a gap at the top , the threshhold was not even there, they had removed part of our porch floor at the threshhold and not replaced .So I called them to have these problems resolved in December 2004 we will send someone right out 2 weeks no one ,I called again ,in the mean while the lock quit working you could not use your key to get in the house. This is October 2005 and they still have not come down to fix our door.

He found his self out of there, looking for a job else where. Not long after he found himself unemployed, the Pace setter corporation went out of business. One day I went over there behind the building, & I saw all kinds of lead sheets of previous customers scattered everywhere.

Subject: Never did the job took the deposit

In April of this year my 76 year old mother saw a television ad on a local TV station (channel 8 in San Diego), she contacted the company for a free estimate. They came out and talked her into signing a contract for kitchen cabinets, countertops, and wood flooring. They took a deposit of $982.00. They kept calling her to extend the installation date. In July they called to say they couldn't do the countertops but would be able to do the rest of the job. She mentioned cancelling the job but they called back and said the materials had arrived. They would contact her in 2 weeks to schedule the job. They called Sept 7th and said 2 more weeks, again they called Sept 28 and said 2 more weeks. Now the installation date is October 13th. I tried the numbers on the contract (7 in California and 1 in Nevada) all have been disconnected but the one in Sacramento and that line is constantly busy. Today I called channel 8 to see what they know of this company since that is where the ad came from. They called me back saying they never got paid for the ad that ran for 3 days, April 4/5/6. They suggested I look at this site. I think we should contact the DA office, do a class action lawsuit, or something to stop this from continuing. The TV station said the order came from Nebraska. Well, its been 6 months, maybe we are lucky that we are just out the deposit, I'm wondering if they will ever show up to do the job, of course they would be turned away after reading all of these comments.

I just discovered all this information about Pacesetter. We were set up with them thru SAM'S Club. We got a storm door installed and it has burned out my doorbell because it was installed improperly and screwed up the electrical wiring. According to Amerifirst, Pacesetter only has one office operating anymore and that is in Sacremento. They are there supposedly to provide service to existing customers. We'll see. Their phone # is 916-788-2931. I have left them a message today and am waiting for them to call back. Amerifirst also informed me that I have no recourse on payment, my money is owed to them not Pacesetter so not paying the bill is not an option unless you want to screw up your credit.

On April 8, 2004 we purchased a storm door through a

representative "working Sam's Club" in Austin, Tx. The

door was installed satisfactorilly (and well it should have

been for $639.00!) On August 2, 2005, I spoke with Helen

in California and told her that the storm door lock was

stuck in the locked position and we were unable to use the

door. She assured me that she would send me a new locking

mechanism for $5.00 handling fee. I disengaged the lock by

unscrewing it from the door. It is still in that condition!

Now that would make one wonder if the Pacesetter Co. is a

legimate company! Today I have called every phone number

that I could find in two states, but alas, disconnects and

continual ringing was all that I was greeted with! Would

someone out there in Pacesetter cyberspace PLEASE answer

my question "Do you HAVE a replacement for a bronze storm

door?" And, if so, how would I be able to get one!

Thououghly disgusted Martha!

Subject: Pacesetter nightmare

In December of 2003 a pacesetter rep. came to our house to give us this big talk about how great pacesetter is. We needed siding and all the works that go along with it at the time and his spiel sounded good so we signed a contract with them. He was a very convincing liar. Everything he told us was a lie. Work was suppose to start the very next week. Well it did not and after many excuses from pacesetter they finally came out and started the work on the house. By the way they came and did the work in a blinding snow storm. How could they see what they were doing. The company sent the wrong color of siding so that part of it had to be stopped while the right stuff was sent. We waited and it finally came. So they started again. The guys that were putting in the siding kept making remarks about how we got taken. The siding they were putting in was suppose to be the best there is. Well according to the guys it was the worst siding in the world. The one guy asked me how much I paid for this stuff and when I told him he laughed they all did. They did not do some of the things that we paid them to do. They left all of there trash and nails and metal pieces laying around. It is now 2 years later and we are still finding trash and nails all over our yard. We found out later that the siding we purchased should not have cost us what it did. It should have been about half of what it cost us. And now we find out that they are no longer in buisness in Pa. Well we are suppose to have a lifetime guarantee on the siding with them. So if something happens what do we do then. We have tried contacting them but to no avail. I have even written to Sam's Club where we first met the pacesetter guy, they said they have nothing to do with this. Pacesetter was just in the store showing a product.
Once again the little people have been taken by big company. We will never buy anything from any company other than one that is owned and operated locally. And on top of all this we have never gotten anything from the finance company that we signed with. O they take their money out every month but have they contacted us. NO I THINK NOT

LA# 1-800-385-1943 Kentucky #1-800-597-7706 and Rochester Mills #1-800-933-9956 But the number they have listed on tripod website, is actually a directory assistance number and you say Pacesetter then she says whether or not they our located in that state or not. Quite confusing!!!!!!!!
I went past Gary Iskra's house again He is still living quite large. What an asshole. I wonder if his wife knows everything that has gone on in the last few years.

I think that most of the people were okay just trying to do a job for a company that only cared about the almighty dollar and not the people that helped generate it for Pacesetter. Even though I was with Pacesetter for less than a year I still feel for the employees who put so much into the company. I mean moving all over the U.S. and for what? I have managed to move on and have a great position at another company now. But my experience at Pacesetter will always leave a bad taste in my mouth.

I stumbled on this. Does this mean they are still trying to bring in business?

"This page is designed just for Tennessee, Southern Kentucky, and Northern Alabama Pacesetter clients."

I hate these bastards soooo much. Let's not let them have success with their new scams.

I rarely notice when this changes but I happened to noticed today. I think anyone who has any interest in finding Iskra, and the rest of the Pacesetter Thugs will find this useful.

In the unlikely event Iskra gets wise and changes the WHO is data, I've captured it and have it available for anyone who may need it later.

That about does it for me on here. Though I'm sure I'll keep checking back for the entertaiment value. Some of the former employees on here are amusing in a desperate and pathetic sort of way.

---Parting thoughts---
To former customers, I really do feel sorry for how bad you got screwed. As you can tell you weren't the only ones though.

To former coworkers I knew personally, I hope you're all doing better that you ever did at Pacesetter, I know I am.

And to the whining, addicts, and whores (mostly from SAC & GRR) telemarketing, stop your complaining, you were a part of the problem before Iskra ever came along. Do us all a favor and check yourselves into rehab, the internet could use a break from you.

Had pacesetter windows installed Ja./2005. What hurts i knew better. All window installers want to much as far as Iam concerned. Any way all the windows got installed 3 need corrective action. The window capping was never done. I have a phone number for the installer,but he never returns my calls. I contacted the finance company Pacesetter was using they no longer do business with Pacesetter. The girl gave me a phone number in Pittsburgh, but all the phone does is keep ringing, no one answers.
it sure seems a shame that as a consumer I do not seem to have any recourse against Pacesetter.

Subject: "BAD" product....door

We had all Pacesetter windows put on our home. We were told..because we got all of the windows at one time.. they would "THROW" in a $700.00 door. All was fine and good, until the door swelled so badly we could not even close it. We have had someone from the company check out ther door. he did some adjustments.. still the same problem plus... we can not lock the screen door now. I have made several calls, the company sent someone out again last Nov (2004) . The paint is coming off the door and the repairman scratched "MORE" paint off and said this is suppose to be baked on and should not come off that easily.. he said he would order a new door for us. We did not hear anything for months...than when I called.. that location had closed.. I was told to call the company in Minneapolis that bought them out. I called number and he said he had a door there with my name on it and he would send someone to put it on... months went by and I re- called the company in Minneapolis.. only to hear a message that they were no longer in service. I have tried calling the phone number (402-331-9400) in Omaha, Ne. I could not get through.. I really like the windows but the door is a piece of "JUNK".. Thanks to everyone for listening to me.. at least someone did as long as I have not been able to express my views to a live body at Pacesetters. Eunice from Mn.

Subject: attorney general actions??? iskras address at home

has anyone filed a complaint with their attorney general and gotten any
favorable response back as of yet? i just sent mine in today and just wondered
what the general response had been on any replies...and for those of you who
have asked corporateknowledge for asst....his (or hers) information appears to
be genuine and accurate...i had gotten ahold of mark aloes cell phone number and
called him...he was not a happy camper that first of all i had gotten his number
...but secondly that it seemed i had the gaul to actually call him and
complain...he stated he has not been affilitaed with pacesetter since stepping
away from the company about 30-45 days ago...whether thats true of not i don't
know...but he was quite taken aback by my nerve calling him...and asked...how
would i feel if i was called at home? corporateknowledge did give me an address
for pacesetter in pittsburg as follows..:

Pacesetter corporation
600 grant street
56th floor, suite 5620
pittsburg , Pa. 15222

i can't seem to contact that office ...though after having called the USX tower
management office ( 412-261-9940 ) they state that pacesetter has not moved into
the office spaces as of yet and that it appears they may not...for all thats
worth...was someone asking for gary and debbie iskras home address???? ya know
what gary..i already have a condo reserved for me in hell on the river
styx....but i have the comfort of knowing i'll see your ass burn there too !!!

gary and debbie iskra
464 meyers school rd.
ligoneer, Pa. 15658

thanks again corporate !!!

there has to be some kind of accting for these people and what they have done to
the many lives they touched and damaged thru their insidious business
practices...

i for one am NOT gonna let this go...i am contacting a lawyer to see what if
anything can be done..the attorney general has had an 11 pages fax sent today
including documents & testimony from me and other customers that i sold
proliferating their lies...okay fine...so i'm a salesman with a
conscious...better than one individual outta grand rapids that might read this
who once told me they'd sell a product to a widow even if it meant her last dime
of savings...folks..thats just plain fuckin wrong...no matter how ya look at it.
i'm quite sure mark aloe got his cell number changed fast when i told him i got
it off the interent..lmao...hope it cost him a few pennies...anything to exact
some sort of revenge.

can some tell me what the hierarchy of pacesetter was? all the main players as
i'm not sure who to be looking for...

larry krempskys cell number is no longer working...

where did mickey madden fall into the scheme of things? i have his cell phone
number too.

oh, and mark aloe did verify that pacesetter was selling republic windows to me
on the phone, not pacesetter EXCLUSIVE factory made products as i was led to
believe after 0ctober 2004 exclusively.

You obviously know where he lives so even if you don't have exact address if you could point me in the general direction maybe they could find him from there. I would appreciate any leads you could give us here in K.C. Thanks Joe. Appreciate all the help we can get from any one at this point.

I have been hoping and looking for a website from other people with complaints on this company.

I got really screwed with them. I am very disappointed with my State and City for letting these people here to operate a business. I have gone through great lengths looking for the Salesman that came and spoke with me. I wish I had paid more attention to my gut feeling. I consider myself to be somewhat smart and did not expect this to happen to me, particularly being older, I consider myself to have become a little wiser with age, its always one of those stories you see or hear about other people.

My nightmare started in September 2004, borrowed money and paid the finance company off. If have excellent credit and with retirement coming soon for me, I am trying to clear off all debts.

I won't go into detail about my horror story, but there were many lies from many people. They eventually stop taking my calls, closed the office I was working with and supposedly moved all their operation to California and was reorganizing. None of the phone numbers that I had worked anymore, and the people in California pretended to not have a clue. Even the finance company pretended to not know anything.

I first got involved with them because I needed replacement windows and was at a Sam's store who was promoting this company for home improvement. Thinking that Sams Club would not avail themselves to a company that was not reputable, I let them set up an appointment. I have to say it was the biggest mistake of my life.

I did go back to Sams Club and tried to get information but was told that they were not longer recommending Pacesetter but now had a new company. I was told by the Sams Club Associate that many other people had come in and complained and thought there was a class action lawsuit. Checking with the local District Attorney and the State Attorney General, they were unaware at the time I checked. But I still requested and received the forms from the District Attorney's office, which I will fill out and return.

I do not know if it will do me any good, but I am filing a complaint with the Better Business Bureau and any other agency that I can.

Thanks for letting me vent. I do agree with you that Pacesetter Sucks.

Subject: What the hell happened?

I worked or should I slaved for 4 years with Pacesetter in the sales dept. About 2 years B.I.(before Iskra) and 2 years F.I.(for Iskra). As you all know, the B.I. years seemed to be predictable and basically, you got out what you put in if you bought into the way they wanted you to perform. I made a ton of money and even though I didn't have a life, I learned alot about direct sales and the years and years of experience that Pacesetter had in this type of business. As I reflect back, they always said they were a " sales company", not necessarly a home improvement company. Then, when Iskra took over, the spirit, mood, motivation, and sense of security diminished, month by month. The way business was conducted was basically the same so where did all the money go??? The Schrager family sure made a ton of dough,so how can you run it into the ground in such a short period of time? My only take would be the lead system(not taking anything away from the telemarketers as they could only produce what they had to work with). I think the "head in the sand" approach of how much impact the National Do Not Call List was huge as the company was not really proactive like so many other companies were. The only people they were able to call were the low lifes and the ones that were too lazy, stupid, ignorant, didn't speak or understand English. This makes a very, very tough selling environment, even for the strongest of the "closers". Does anybody out there in ex Pacesetter land really know that truth of where all the money went? Look forward to your thoughts and reflections.

We are Sam's Club members and a kiosk was set up at our local Sam's where we inquired about windows. We did not know who the window contractor was until Pacesetter contacted us from the information they received from Sam's Club.

Long and short of our story is Pacesetter took our downpayment, cashed the check never showed up to install the windows and come to find out the window order was never processed. Right after that information developed, we found out Pacesetter had closed it's doors here in Texas. Since Sam's Club was hosting a kiosk for Pacesetter and it is a "member's only" type of store, we contacted Sam's Club. Sam's Club is supposed to be working with their members to get refunds issued.

We have been dealing with this Sam's Club/Pacesetter mess for 4 months now and it should not take this long to get a refund.

For anybody out there who is a Sam's Club member who inquired about windows and Pacesetter was given their member information, try calling Sam's Club customer care number at 802-786-6700.

We are still waiting for our refund, but according to Sam's Club the president is now involved with getting refunds to their members.

Good luck to all of you out there and maybe we will see our refund.

Management was harsh and tried to suck up every hour of your day. The co. never changed and other co. got into the game working less hours and more money. Lets face it 8 oclock burn out 50 miles away for text coat in the rain. And they speak broken english. What the hell!!!

My siding and gutter were ripped off during winter storm and Pacesetter had just come into Pennsylvaina as a new company. They came to my home offering new siding and leafaway at a $5,000 price. Luckily my apraiser was able to catch wind and got the price down the job got done. But the installer was a dipstick. My son-in-law was here and told the man not to walk on the roof has it was just new and the previous owner didn't put enough beams across, so he told the men to use ther scafolding. They didn't. They damaged my roof causing a leak over one window bring snow and rain in to the bedroom, between the walls down into my kitchen. When I confronted Pacesetter, they made me go through my homeowners insurance to hire a contractor to do the interior repair, but the exterior repair was some kind of a seal. Pacesetter paid my deductable. A year later and the damage has happened again. I had an indpendent roofer go up on the roof and take pictures and found out the shingles were buckled by the leafaway installation and its going to cost $2600 to repair. I now have a court hearing with Pacesetter. I have damage again in the ceilings of my bedroom and kitchens again. They won't answer my phone calls and I have gone through the BBB. The BBB doesn't get a respone either. They have closed there Richmond office and opened an office here in Pittsburgh, PA

In the 17 years I spent in that bucket of piss, I don't recall Jenn Harris causing it to be the way that it was. As a matter of fact, the one's who caused it to SUCK were Gary Kluck, Robert Douthit, Mike Licalsi, Joe Schuette, Barb Lund, TOM BUDISELIC(especially this piece of work) and all the other deceptive pieces of shit that worked there.
Lay off Jenn and move on!!! She's one of the few that made it tolerable to at least show up every day, definately not because anyone wanted too. If they did, they are the sadistic bastards that still feel the need to be abused. Leave Jenn alone.

A couple of weeks ago (I don't know what possessed me) I tried looking up their web site just to see what products are being sold now days. No web site. Googled the Pacesetter name and found this site. Whoaaaa! I find the devolpments of recent extremely interesting and would very much like to visit with those who have worked in Omaha during the same time frame, or latter, to catch up on whats going on, recent changes, etc. We probably know each other...it would be fun to catch up on what you're doing!

Subject: I was a Pacesetter Telemarketer

First of all, I have read numerous posts' on this site, and after working at Pacesetter for about 6 months or so, I definately believe the stories.

I worked at Pacesetter years ago, but it does'nt sound like they have turned into an honest business from all the personal stories. I worked as a telemarketer, I believe the year was 1987, or around that time. I was in my early 20's and found out about this "great paying job" from a friend of my girlfriend at the time. Her husband was a sales manager at the Pacesetter in New Brighton, Mn. I was realy pumped up by what this guy told me, so the following week I went to apply for a job, and I got one ! My initial "training" was done by some guy who promissed big money, which of course made me excited. All I had to do was call people 8-10 hours/day and make appointments for the "sales reps" to go to these peoples' homes and sell them windows, siding or security systmes. Each item had their own department, and I was in the "windows" dept at first. I would cold call from the phone book, and use a scripted "pitch" with scripted rebutals, more rebutals and so on. Anyway, I beleive I was paid a base pay which was minimum wage, but earned bonus pay if a sales person sold an item to a homeowner because of my call, which turned into a "lead", then the sales person went to the home and made the sale. I can't say much about the sales team because I did'nt see much of that, but as a telemarketer, looking back, I was supposed to use high pressure on these people (the ones that did'nt hang up of course), and just about lie to them. During lunch hour or break time I would see some of the managers and other telemarketers, sales reps, and even the general manager doing drugs, and or gambling. I can't believe this company has been in business for as long as it has. That's all for now.

i am a former salesman with the Grand Rapids, Mi. office hired by Don Manske and Jason Mitchell while on a sales at my house March 20, 2005...to make part of the story short...he talked me into leaving my meat cutting job to become a member of his sales staff telling me i would make a huge living up here in northern michigan where i live, so i started working for them the end of april, 2 weeks after my windows went in. ...well...my windows (8) of them went in okay...the installers did a good job......though, i was not able to open my windows till almost the 3rd week in may due to the unseasinably long winter cold we had here this year...when i went to open my bathroom window THE FIRST TIME...it fell right out. thats when i realised that the constant force balancing bar system that was shown me in my demo model which was metal , turned out in fact to be WAX STRING on my windows...WTF? i called back to the office in Grand Rapids and spoke to Scott Rungie on May 16, 2005 who said " oh, there was a production change that everyone was aware of including the salesmanager. " well i called Don after that and he stated he was unaware of any changes in production...yet we were still demo'ing people with the metal version constant force balancing system display...i finally found out he must have known different as i stated my concern that i didn't want abunch of different windows in my house when i replaced the rest of them.....he stated " don't worry rick, i can get you the same windows from REPUBLIC WINDOWS, and at a HUGE price savings from what pacesetters windows are, and they are IDENTICAL !! ...meaning he knew Pacesetter was no longer manufacturing their own windows anymore...including the ones they SOLD ME!!! so as a customer i was lied to in the name of profit, i would never have bought windows held together inside by friggin STRING, nor was i sent my " factory rebate" which was being used as a selling tatctic at that time in the amount of $360.00 which in my contract was guaranteed to be sent in the form of a check 30 days aftter installation...AND the final insult to injury, i have not been paid $600.00 in back commisions on sales which almost led to my losing my home..now...the finance company is wanting their money...threatening court action if i don't pay...and i told them that Pacesetter did not honor their contract and also " bait and switched " me on part of my product...which wasn't even THEIR manufactured product as stated by Don and Jason...so now..i have no idea what to do..i can't see paying for something that i didn't order as shown me , that a company can't go thru with in the contract terms...yet face some sort of court issue and possiblly having a lien that might not be able to be removed from my home...anybody have ANY help for me? i can't get any answers nor call backs from my repeated calls to pacesetter since may 16th... i also have a customer from the last week in April that originally signed a contract with a 2000.00 deposit check...but cancelled after the second day... calling Pacesetter and cancelling , and mailing in his rescision paperwork...yet Pacesetter still went ahead, cashed his check and now he is out 2000.00 and never even got a SINGLE window

Our windows are double hung and when you close the bottom window the top of the top window is open about 1/2 inch. They dont close. So in the summer we are losing all of our AC and in the winter we are losing all of our heat. We live in the country and we have propane. With the price of gas going up we can not afford to be losing all of our heat out the window. I pulled out the warranty from pacesetter and of course can not get a hold of this company.

Six years ago I had Pacesetter's quality (I thought it then and am still enjoying them actually) windows installed. I have been very happy with all dealings with them. I have since learned, however, that I really did pay a huge price, but I was dumb then and am now just trying to maintain them. I was told when I purchased them that for a small charge, they would come out anytime and maintenance. I haven't been able to find a phone number today to contact anyone in the Sacramento Office. I then have spent quite a bit of time on the web just trying to find a number to call at all. Then I have been glimpsing at some of these horrible stories and now have fears that they have gone out of business.

Does anyone know how to reach a corporate office anywhere in the US or Canada? Am I just one of the lucky ones? Honestly, I would have referred people to them if I hadn't realized that the price was pretty high. I have the most quality windows, actually, however, than anyone I know who has had window replacements. They cost more, but they've been great.

I keep pans out there to catch the water, I did contact BBB, and nothing from them also, Now my question is? if they build something for you, and it's extremely bad, do we still have to pay the people that it's financed with. They have a lien on my home, Now it started out with Federal Diversived, now they were bought out by Amerifirst, and they call all the time wanting money, and we refuse to pay, cause we can't get the Sunroom Repaired, Now what do we do!!!!Please help!!!We filed Chapter 13, so are they obligated to receive any funds. And how can we get them off our mortgage..I had that Sunroom built to sit out there when it rains to hear it hit the roof, not feel it, I put a sofa and TV and Lamps, all out there, I had electric installed, and now we can't enjoy it, only if its not raining or snowing, cause if it snows and it melts, the water comes in, so any way you look at it, we're screwed, I went on the enternet tonight to look them up again to email them and no luck, I tried to called today, and was told this number was no longer in service, cause I sure wanted to talk to Mr. Al Kanngeiser, to ask him why he had not sent his service man like he promised back in May, which he never contacted us at all.

Subject: I am a former employee too.

I worked as an installer, for the Pacesetter Corp over 12 years, in the Fresno Ca. office. I must say that for most of those 12 years I was not totally unhappy. There was a lot of pressure with the GOALS system and I feel that I could have made more money with out it. I did believe that the products were too expensive, but I tried to give each customer the best installation that I could. I know that there were companies whose products were both inferior and more expensive than the Pacesetter Products. I of course also worked long hours and traveled a lot, staying in motels many many nights each year.

It has only been since the company was sold to the Iskra group that the situation became unbearable. After reading the responces on this website, I realize that there are a lot of unhappy customers and former employees. My experience are simular to most of the others. The work load lessened and then the checks came later and later and finally not at all. The company owes me nearly 4000 dollars. After working for three weeks without pay I stopped installing. When I applied for unemployment, I was told that I was not intitled because the Pacesetter Corp. told the unemployment office that I quit my job. I just shake my head talking to the government people that do not seem to understand that if I am not getting paid for my work, I do not believe that I should keep working.

Here is the good part of the story. Since working for Pacesetter, working hard and giving my all for the company. I found that ex pacesetter employees are in demand at other window companies. After leaving Pacesetter I was contacted by three different window companies, looking for installers. Long time ex. Pacesetter installers, are well equiped, have good trucks, start early and work long hours, and are used to traveling. I now work for a quality company who sells a better product for a lot less money. There are no goals, and I get paid ontime including expenses.

I feel that the new owners of the Pacesetter Corp should spend a lot of time in prison for the way they have lied, cheated and stolen from thousands of customers and employees.

You can leave my name on this message and post my e-mail address also. I would like to hear about the new name of the company and would like to do everything that I can to see that the new company does not get a chance to cheat anyone else. Like I said I would like to see Iskra, Kluck, Madden, and Aloe in prison. That is where they deserve to be.

I didn't like going to the GR office because I knew Lori Vera would be there. It was bad enough knowing that my company was about to screw everybody, but I also didn't want to deal with Lori's attitude. I might spend a few bucks and go buy her some new batteries, because obviously she's been unhappy for quite a while.

#5 I completely agree with you. Who was doing drugs, who was screwing who and where, and who was a negative person have no relevance or place on this site. It is annoying to filter through those messages trying to get to some actual information.
I am a former sales rep out of the Milwaukee office who was being harassed by Tierra Portfolio Services. I hope nobody got intimidated into paying those assholes. I have not heard anything from them for about four weeks now, I am wondering if anyone is still getting harassed by them?
Also, after the Milwaukee office shut down, there was a message on their answering machine directing people to their Pittsburg # 724-741-2100. Last two times I called that # there was no answer or message, and there is no longer a message at the Milwaukee # either. Does anyone have a current phone #?

Thought others might find this article interesting. It's dated but interesting history.

Here's a sample:

"....."We have already entered into a contract to sell the office building," added Mr. Iskra, "and with more of the manufacturing being outsourced, we will soon sell the larger plant as well. We will find a smaller space for our corporate services, and continue to build Pacesetter past the $100-million in sales level that we have already achieved."...

Today I discovered that the latch on my screen door had broken off. I had the same experience with the sliding glass door. I also asked several weeks ago to have a screen replaced in my bathroom. I was promised the screen would be replace immediately as I was still under warranty.

Today after finding the latch had broken I tried to call the company to have my latch and screen replaced. All phone numbers I have have been disconnected or constantly busy.

You are so right, Pacesetter does suck!

In response to ### still no name? Who is the nasty one? Who is the one complaining?! You arent even worth responding to. Please seek help. Still not big enough of a person to put your name up there. That goes show you right there. There is a workshop called STEPS TO ECONOMIC & PERSONAL SUCCESS-GUIDE TO SELF SUFFICIENCY. I think this could help you. You really need to get the negativity out of your life weather you had it b4 pacesetter or not. We all know Pacesetter was a very negative environment. Let go of it. Let yourself free. Life would be better for you.

Like stated above I no longer want to deal with negative people and you are one. Adios-Negative One

Im only stating the obvious.... After I wrote that, you call me a very negative person. Thats crap and you know it. All you ever did is complain about things. EVERY DAY! There was not one time that you weren't complaining about something. I dont think I ever saw a smile on your face. Yes, I am being negative right now about you. I admit it. I just hope that one day you will wake up and realize how nasty of a person you really are.
Sincerely,
Hmmmm.........

Sounds to me rob like you're the miserable one. When someone spends so much time cutting on other people they must not feel so good about themselves. I do miss playing phase 10 by the way. Hope you can seek help and feel better about yourself. Pacesetter definitely did rub off on you very negative person.... At least I have hope. Sorry I wasnt as happy as you were at Pacesetter. Only a stepping stone in my life. Life goes on. GET HELP ROB!

#130-Quite a few of us from the GR office filed with the Labor Board in May, there is still hope. I just recently spoke with my case worker from the Labor Board and he's on it and aware of the going ons. If they are still in business somewhere we will get them!

#140-Right on Rob! I always did admire you when you were in the GR office. Congrats on the marriage! Lori V.
