    on June 2, 2022 I put a deposit of $25,897 with Dennis ***** DBA Flamingo Pools for a 16x35 Latum Cancun pool. I have made numerous calls and texts to Dennis ***** all with excuses about why I have not received my pool. On April 28, 2023 he sent a company to my house to dig a huge hole in my back yard. It has now been 6 weeks, still no pool, with a big dangerous hole in my back yard and STILL getting excuses as to why I have not received my pool which was ordered over a year ago. I have sent him a demand letter for a refund of my deposit. I am now being told he is doing this to others as well.
