Poor customer service
September 25, 2023

Jeremy Bustos
I purchased a Hayward conversion unit from you at the end of June and was told it would take up to 8 weeks. It's now been 12, and I was told it would be another 2 weeks. Alberto from your customer service has been rude and sarcastic with me asking questions. This is the worst customer service experience I've ever had. He's now telling me my options are to cancel my order or wait another 2 months. I've wasted a whole season waiting for the conversion unit in the pool. If you're the only one selling something, you can treat people however you want.

This is one of the most unprofessional businesses I have dealt with. I ordered a pool product and they sent me a strange e-mail stating it has been placed on hold for security reasons. I called and asked what the issue was but again they said it was flagged. My credit card did not flag this and my AMEX is very good at detecting fraud. I gave them my information over the phone and they said it would be shipped. I get an email about it being canceled a short while later. When I emailed about the cancellation, the manager, Joe, asked for a selfie with my ID card. I have never in my life been asked for such a request by a company. If they are unable to conduct e-commerce properly they should stick to a brick-and-mortar store. Highly unprofessional behavior to ask your customers for photographs over email. Please find a better pool supply store to spend your money on.

Absolutely terrible customer service
June 14, 2022

I am absolutely very unhappy with the customer service that I received. I ordered a pool heater and ordered a gas heater by mistake so I requested an exchange. I was told to ship it back and order the correct model. I did that expecting to receive credit. I ordered the propane heater paid for it and waited for a credit. I finally after a couple of billing cycles with no credit I inquired and was told that it came back damaged and needed to file a claim. I can't file a complaint after 60 days. So now I have 2 loans have paid 3 shipping charges and company will not issue any credit. And although they deny that they will sell it I am sure it will not sit forever. Will never do business with them again and if I could give 0 stars I would have.

Poor Service for product purchased
September 29, 2021

We purchased a Raypak E3T Electric Heater as a replacement so we would have the digital control temperature setting. Easy installation for replacement heater. Worked great for one week. It had only 90 day warranty because my husband installed it. Tried to contact Raypak for warranty service no help. They don't deal with residents at all. Found warranty service provider over 100 miles away so in order for them to come have to pay $100 trip charge. Tried calling Pool Supply Unlimited they were no help. Stated can not help with warranty. In my opinion they should at least contact Raypak on our behalf and Raypak should send out service provider free of charge.

Bought a Hayward DV 5000 14 months ago. It was a bad product from the start but after 14 months it was garbage and not repairable. None of my emails to Pool Supply asking about any warranty were responded to. I will not and neither should anyone buy any product from Pool Supply, they do not support the products they sell and don't even give you the courtesy of a return email.

Dishonest
January 31, 2023

They have hot tubs parts for sale on their website that they don't have in stock. These parts are not marked as out of stock. Upon order a part it did not ship, when I inquired I was told it would 8-12 weeks. I asked for a refund, they said sure but did not refund me.

BEWARE
January 29, 2023

If I could give them "0" stars I would. I Purchased an expensive item on their website.
They immediately charged my credit card THEN sent me an email telling me it might be months before they ship me the item I purchased. I asked them why they charged my card before the item was shipped and that I thought it was shady or even fraud for them to do so. I got a response that they did not charge my card when in fact they did. It appeared on my AMEX account then a refund for the same amount from them appears. If they didn't charge the card then why is there a refund. Then I get an email telling me to shop somewhere else. Do they really think I would trust them with any other order(s)?
Stay as far away from these people as you can.

I purchased several products over the years. I am happy with the products, but not happy with their return policy. I purchased a pool pump and at the suggestion of the sales person, also purchased a wiring kit in case I needed it. It took quite awhile to get the parts, I understand why. By the time they arrived, my pool was already closed for the season and I waited to install the pump just recently. I didn't need the wire kit. Pool Supply won't allow a return because they have a 30 day return policy. Makes no sense, I haven't opened the wire kit, they are selling it for more than I purchased it.

Return policies are a big decision when purchasing online. Wake up pool supply and get with the times.

Damaged product
March 26, 2022

We ordered a pool heater, had to pay a ridiculous amount for shipping. Upon delivery the box was damaged but it appeared the product would be ok as the box wasn't too bad, signed for the package, opened it up and there were dents all over the place, the bottom is practically falling out, at this point I'm not even sure the product works. Extremely disappointed, for amount of money this thing costs and the ridiculous shipping prices. I filed a claim so we'll see what happens, even if I get to exchange it we will have to pay the shipping costs again... so ridiculous and disappointed I won't be ordering supplies from them and I don't recommend ordering from them.

I bought a T cell from this website and when it arrived to my house it was broken, the T cell was not packaged for safe travel as it was in one small box within one big box with no air packaging or any bubble wrap inside. I contacted them immediately had to go through the normal steps of pictures and all and once that was done (on the same day) I had heard nothing, I had to keep calling and emailing to get people to answer me. I waited weeks and weeks and weeks just to get a refund back bc they wouldn't allow me to get one until they received the damaged T cell and filed through ups as their mistake for transport issues. When they got the T cell I called immediately that day as I had been tracking it and the lady told me it would be 24 to 48 hours to process and get an email. Well, it took 2 phone calls and 4 days to finally see a confirmation that they were FINALLY giving me a refund. Would not recommend!

This place SUCKS
July 7, 2022

This place SUCKS. Typical pool company. I purchased over a $1000. 00 worth of new pool lights and was informed that I would receive an email informing me what day and time I could will call the items. Never received an email. I called 5 times and spoke to 5 diffrent employees and each one told me that they would resolve my issue. Never happened. I canceled my order. Spoke with Jonathan, Alen Debbie, Issac, and a person who would not give me their name. Companies like these have to exist because where else would these people work. A step down from Target. Very sad

I bought my pool back in early April 2021. I have tried to contact Pool Supply Unlimited with both email and by phone repeatedly and can not get 1 single returned call or email. I was told an additional 2-4 weeks by your company to receive the pool via email a few days after ordering it. After waiting this ridiculous amount of time, I find myself wondering why I even did business with your company at all. Almost $900 NOT well spent. I have never in my life dealt with such an unethical company as Pool Supply Unlimited. Glad I put up new privacy fence also and had family in town for Memorial day. Sure would have been nice to have my pool, you had no problem charging me for it day 1. I will never recommend this company to anyone after dealing with this. Send me my pool.

Great Deal
July 23, 2020

Been pricing Dolphin automatic pool cleaners for about a month until i tripped across this deal Cleaner and pool caddy saved a couple hundred bucks doing a combo deal. Have purchased other items from polls unlimited and have always been please with price, timeliness of shipping and quality of product, so I don't anticipate being disappointed over this purchase. Great company and customer service so far. Highly recommend.

It took 11 calendar days to receive my order. Shipment was from a location < 100 miles away. Very difficult to get in touch with customer service via phone. Tried email and they respond 1-2 days later or not at all. Good prices but don't be in a hurry... and hopefully you know what you want!

Quick heater
April 12, 2020

The heater was shipped almost immediately which is greatly appreciated. However when opening the box we noticed a dent in the heater.
I called to see what their policy is about damaged equipment and am waiting for an answer sometime early next week.

Horrible company!

Do yourself a favor and shop elsewhere! We waited over 2 months for our pool part and it never arrived. Custom service was even worst if you can believe it!

I needed some replacement 1" x 2" pool tiles. Pool Supply Unlimited had a good selection to choose from. I was able to find similar tile to the ones that were installed 20+ years ago. Product arrived quickly and in good condition.
Only complaint is the shipping costs were high.

I am on the phone now with the credit card company. I was baited by the great price, but when the package arrived, the item was completely different with a model number that does not match. After a week of discussions, they will not refund my money. Their reasoning is that it is the same brand. It's like buying Ford Mustard, and receiving a Ford Focus at delivery. They feel that I should be happy because they sent me a Ford, so no refund. So now I am responsible for a couple of hundred dollars, and still have to buy the correct part. The credit card company says that it can take a couple of months to resolve.

I can't speak of poolsupplyunlimited.com initial intentions, but this really feels like a scam.
