Excellent Customer Service
After having an unfortunate experience with our existing Hot Tub supplier who went bust we contacted Hydropool Hamphire who have been so helpful. Just had an issue and we're so prompt and efficient. Big thank you to Chyna who have restored our faith in HydroPool and the engineer who was so friendly and helpful.

Hydropool - First Class
From initial enquiry through delivery we found the service first class. The ability to physically sit in a tub in the show room was invaluable in the decision making process. We were initially unable to provide an acceptance date due to our garden renovation. Once this was confirmed the hot tub was delivered in a matter of weeks. The delivery team were excellent, John from the Portsmouth branch was great and very informative, allowing us to make a decision in a non pressured environment and finally Scott from the customer team again was great keeping us informed of every step in the process. Oh and the hot tub is fantastic. Thank you

Great pre sales and installation, really poor customer service post sale
The pre sales was great, John in the Portsmouth showroom was really patient and not pushy in any way. He went out of his way to talk through the many different options and allowed demonstrations etc.
Sadly the aftercare and follow up once the hot tub was bought is where it all changed. I had an issue with a missing jet that took 2 months to resolve (leaving me unable to use the hot tub as intended in that time). I had to keep chasing. I was given a free packet of chlorine granules as a “sorry” which is pretty condescending.
I also didn’t get replies to emails following this to the customer service team about a couple of points and so really felt let down.
Sell you the Platinum service dream (with a platinum price tag) but actually deliver at best silver customer support.

Hello Nick,
Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback.
We’re pleased to hear that you had a great pre-sales experience and that John provided you with the patience and guidance you deserved. It’s always our goal to ensure that the buying process is as smooth and informative as possible.
That said, we’re truly sorry to learn that your experience with our aftercare did not meet your expectations. We deeply regret the delay in resolving the issue with the missing jet and any frustration caused by the need to follow up. This is not the standard of service we strive to deliver, and we understand how disappointing this must have been.
Your feedback about the resolution and lack of responses to your emails is invaluable and has been shared with our team. We’re committed to improving our processes to ensure better communication and support for all of our customers in the future.
Regards
Hydropool Customer Care Team
