The Window Source
In May 2017, a class-action lawsuit was filed against The Window Source for allegedly deceiving customers about the sales and financing of its windows in four ways. Specifically, plaintiffs claim that the company:

- engages in a bait-and-switch scheme by not offering a consistent price for the windows;
- misleads customers by making them believe they are applying for a traditional loan for the quoted price when they are actually signing up for a Visa Home Projects credit card issued by Wells Fargo.
