We bought our hot tub brand new and spent almost $20,000 on it. Had a couple issues that were covered by warranty but this last time we were charged $967.00. Called and talked to receptionist, said I could call someone local she said no, we come out that far just for you. They called and tried to troubleshoot over phone, didn't work. Kept telling them jets/pump 3 wasn't working. All people I talked on phone to said it would be a service call fee but no one mentioned that the fee would be $764 and fuel fee of $170 oh and $32 credit card fee. Running a business myself, I would of clarified that you might be looking at a $1000 bill. Even last time they called to see if "trouble shooting" worked, I mentioned i can call someone local, they just kept saying no, don't worry about it. I asked this at least 3 times over the 4-5 phone calls. The problem with tub, fuse. No trouble shooting for that.
Talked to manager after i get invoice, he states "I tried to save you money by trouble shooting, told you you'd have to pay service call".So unbelievably disappointed. All you had to say it will be close to $1000 and I would of hired someone else. Not to mentioned that I thought you'd take care of customers who spent a considerable amount of money with you.
The guy who fixed it though, thought maybe pump when he got here. Then stated they didn't send one with him. So, you have a service call all that way and you don't send parts that might be the issue, only jets? Thank God that wasn't the issue otherwise my invoice would be over $2000.
Side note, spent extra money when purchasing tub on spa boy that has NEVER worked. Asked everytime they came out, never was able to fix that awesome feature I was upsold on. Can't be honest, upfront or take responsibility for the product they sell. So unbelievably angry! read more
