I had no problem with the staff at the entrance and their line of questioning until my last visit there where I was greeted by the Aryan blond. The only thing missing from her attitude and attire was the Nazi arm band. Enough is enough. I am transferring my perscriptions elsewhere regardless of the inconvenience.

I had some issues I was dealing with personally and wasn't able to think about getting a unit for 6 weeks, and the reason I chose Hot Springs was not price, it was that Colby understood I had more important things to deal with and just checked in with me from time to time. Once I was ready, I had a contact and a place I could go and get what I wanted.

When I bought the pool they told me they would give me instructions once it was assembled as to how to maintain, clean and winterize the pool. When the pool was assemble I received a 5 minute verbal tutorial and was told to read my owners manual (which does not have that info in it.) Every time I tried to call I was instructed to read the owners manual. I bought a solar pool cover from them that was defective and the only way they would replace it was if I drove over an hour to their store. I called them to inquire about an issue I was having with my pool heater. They sent a guy to "fix" it without my authorization and billed me $140 for the service call and they didn't even fix the problem. When I tried to discuss this bill with them they told me I was getting a "deal" and not being charged the normal full amount. They wouldn't addressed the fact that the service call was unauthorized and the fact that the problem still existed after he left. They also threatened to take me to collections if I didn't pay it. I tried to negotiate the price but they didn't budge. I would stay as far away from this company as possible. I think they are unethical and greedy, especially Travis. It's safe to say I will never use this company again!!
