              05/18/2023

              We bought a replacement 24' x 48" pool from The Pool People in Stevens Point May 23, 2022. What a joke. Was told it could be installed by the end of July but I forgot to ask what YEAR. After many calls and excuses that the weather caused the delay I got a call in Sept. saying they were pretty much caught up & could be out the following week. When noboby showed up I called and was told that nobody had called me....It's on my phone....******. Brittany from scheduling said it was too late in the season but I would be at the top of the list. I know people are busy and can't find help and I don't like to keep calling. In the meantime I've got an ugly empty space in my deck and boxes that have been sitting in my living rooms a year and I get an email that it's scheduled to be installed July 2nd??????????????? That's at the top of your list? I've requested my money back and will look elsewhere for an installer. Do Not buy a pool from this company and expect good service.
