Great Southern Water Treatment Puronics of Orlando Uses Scare Tactics and Deceptive Practices to get people to buy unnecessary water treatment devices! Longwood, Florida

Then the whole reason for his visit came out! He started into a sales pitch on how we needed this water purification system. He stated that this water purification system would purify our water and remove all of the contaminants. It would also remove and clean all of the muck and guck from our pipes. He stated that we would notice a significant difference in the taste of our water and in the feel our skin after taking a shower. He also stated that we no longer would have issues with soap scum and mildew. He then showed us these facts or statistics in his binder of what was in our water and how it could cause disease and illness if we kept drinking the water without a purification system. After 3 hours of him using scare tactics and pressure sales we finally agreed to buy the system. He then showed us the price of $7990.00 of which we were taken back and said we should think about it first. He then stated that they would be providing cleaning solutions all of types for the first 5 years and that the cost would make up for the monthly payments if we decided to finance. He also promised coupons for food items (which we have never seen) and that would also make up for the price we would be paying so we would not really be out any money in the long run.  Believing what he told us we agreed to buy the machine. My husband signed the paperwork to have the unit financed. He told us to not drink our faucet water for 2 weeks while the purification system worked to clean out our pipes. We waited and after 2 weeks to a month we noticed no difference. We called the company to complain and they have not been cooperative.  I have since found out that we were given the same story as many other people and that this company is a scamming people into buying their products.

 

Then in August of 2010 they have the nerve to send a notice for maintenance on the system and want to charge us $200 to come out and if we decline then the so-called lifetime warranty will be null and void. I refused to have them do anything else and just want them to give us our money back and come and get their piece of crap off my property.
