Customer Service at Alta

I have read many threads complaining about customer service from after market dealers.
I Just wanted to say I had some dealings with John @ Alta I am very happy to report that this after market dealer did an outstanding job in responding and getting the info I needed.

FWIW, we already had a long thread about Alta that wound up deteriorating and getting locked.

Just a reminder, anyone having problems with any vendor should contact the vendor first before posting and give the vendor a fair chance to reply offline.

In the case of Alta, contact Adam directly:

I'm going to leave this thread open for now, since it started off a little differently than the first one. If it deteriorates like the other thread then it will be shutdown.

Dave

Showvan and JustinLewis

Showvan: Thank you for posting a positive experience you had with John. So many people only post negative information as that is what most sticks in everyone's minds. As always let us know if there is anything else we can do to help!

JustinLewis: I checked with our technical staff and none of them recognized this name. Have you spoken to anyone here in specific about the problem? (Not a cut or a poke just a PLEASE give us an opportunity to help ) If the item doesn't fit call us and we can replace it one way or the other. We won't stick you with a mis-trimmed part. Just call or e-mail me personally.

Thanks again folks.

All my MODS so far are ALTA products and i cant be more pleased, I just wish the tube will fit and i understand that not everything is perfect and may require a new part.

I just spoke with adam and he seems very helpfull and we will get this squared away when i return from CO.

Maybe a thread about Alta quality control instead?
