Has anyone had problems with Virgo home improvement salesmen (UK)?

Question

One came round with a flyer today (door to door canvassing).

My wife said she was not interested, then he started getting verbal, "You don't know what it is", "Why won't you take a F'ing leaflet" etc.

Wife said "Get off my property now", and he said "Come and make me".

In then end she get me out of bed (I work nights), and I went down to tell him to stop harrssing my wife.

He slammed the flyers down and said "Some on then big man, have a go".

To cut a long story short, he refused to stop swearing in front of my girls (3yrs old and 19 months old), and told me to "make sure those kids are out of the house tonight, because I am getting a gang of my Asian mates and we are coming back tonight, you wife has got you in a heap of s**t, and you're gonna pay".

We got the police involved, who said it's not enough to go on because he didn't actually say he was going to "hit" you.

Wife is scared now, has anyone had similar threats, and did they actaully turn up?

Answer 1

What a t**d...... I have no reason to dis-believe your story. I'd bet he won't turn up. If he does, just call the old bill. Sounds like he's a sad human being to me. Did your wife give him any verbals to kick off so suddenly ? Get some of your friends around to be on the safe side as he does sound mental. Good luck.

Answer 2
