  I purchased this system in 2020. At the time my system was purchased I was told about having my filters changed every two years, and that at the end of five years they would replace the entire system. For the better part of a year, I have been trying to schedule someone to come out and take a look at my system as I was concerned about it not working properly. The salt level in the tank is not diminishing as it would when working properly and I also needed to have my filters changed. After scheduling two appointments and having no one show up or call, a third appointment was scheduled, again didn't hear from anyone or see anyone but was told that someone showed up at my home after 8:00 pm by a text message. I am beyond frustrated with the terrible customer service and at this point would say they are in breach of the contract as they have not provided the services described in the contract to ensure the system is working as intended. Today I call to try yet again to make an appointment, and I'm told the fee will be $285.00, and there is a 24 hour cancellation policy that I will be charged $99.00 if I fail to cancel. I replied they should be crediting me that fee for the last three times where I sat here all day and no one showed up. The person who answered the phone did seem remotely concerned about the frustration or inconvenience they have caused, or if the system is working properly or not.

  Tell us why here...Dear ******** *****,
  Thank you again for bringing your concerns to our attention. First and foremost, I want to sincerely apologize for the frustration and inconvenience youve experienced. We fully understand how important it is for your system to operate as intended, and for service appointments to be handled with the professionalism and reliability you rightly expect.
  What you described does not reflect the level of service we strive to provide, and Im truly sorry for the missed appointments and lack of communication that caused this situation to escalate. After reviewing your account and recent service history, Id like to provide an update and offer some clarity:
  On May 28, 2025, our technician visited your property, completed the scheduled service, and successfully replaced the filters. During that visit, it was also noted that there are renters residing in the home. We understand from our conversation with you that you were comfortable with us proceeding with service through your tenants.
  Since then, we have made two additional attempts to service the system. On both occasions, our technician rang the doorbell and waited, but unfortunately, no one answered. As a result, we were unable to complete the visits. We recognize how frustrating it can be to deal with scheduling issues, especially when you are making a good-faith effort to maintain your system.

  I am rejecting this response because:

   

  You are referring to 2023 when tenants were in the house. Filters were changed at that time.
  My complaint is based strictly on appointments scheduled in 2024 where I personally stayed home two entire days and no one showed up and no calls were received.  The third appointment I was told someone would be there by 4:00 pm. When I did not receive a call and no one showed up by that time I went on about my evening.  Your response while apologetic did not resolve or comfort my frustration. You are quick to charge tif the customer doesnt cancel early but do not compensate the customer when you fail to have the same courtesy. 
  

  again the tech was fabulous. Luckily he is the person the customers are dealing with face to face. Kydos to him. 
  
  Sincerely,

  You are absolutely right to expect timely communication and reliability from us. Missing scheduled appointments without any notice or follow-up is not the level of service we aim to provide, and I want to acknowledge the disruption and frustration that caused you. While Im grateful to hear our technician provided excellent service during the visitthank you for recognizing his effortsI fully understand that the earlier issues left a negative impact.
  We are actively reviewing our scheduling and communication process to ensure this kind of lapse does not happen again. As a gesture of goodwill, and in recognition of the inconvenience you experienced, we would like to offer you one free filter change during the next year. We hope this small gesture reflects our commitment to making things right and regaining your trust.
  Thank you again for your honest feedback and for allowing us the opportunity to improve. If there is anything more I can do to assist or support you, please dont hesitate to reach out directly.

  I purchased an under the sink water filtration system from Ocean Pacific at the time of purchase in August 2020 the rep explains that itll be $150 to change filters every 2 years. I call beginning of 2023 to inquire about changing filters, ** told the price is now $200, I say okay and schedule the appointment for the next day. Next day no more shows up but I receive a voicemail saying the tech was unable to show up and that I would need to call to reschedule. I call to reschedule and all of a sudden the price is $250 and she claims the price increase from $150 to $250 is due to inflation. 75% inflation is the explanation. I would just like my filters swapped at the price that i was told theyd be swapped when I purchased the system or at the very least the price i was given when i called the first time and had no one show up. My experience with this company has been poor from the beginning. When you call it sounds like a random person at home answering the phone, completely unprofessional.

  Hello,

  We just spoke with the client and came up with agreement to honor the first price that was given. Client will have the filter change done on 6/7/2023 and with that agreement client was satisfied and made whole.

  Thank you

  I purchased a water softener and I call the company telling them there was a power outage. I told them if that happens dies this change the oem program. She told me that all I need to do is unplug the unit and it will reset. I also told her that the unit was leaking out of the drain. She informed me this in normal unless it's all the time. Well the unit is leaking constantly. I called She told me they will send a technician out, but thier is a 245 dollar service fee. I told her why if the unit is still under warranty. She continues to tell me that's the cost to send the technician even though the system is under Warranty? I feel like they are robbing people how van the unit be under warranty and parts but you still have to pay for service.
