Visitor Reviews of El Colorado
Carlos Mahns from Chile writes:
Estan robando nuestro dinero. Compre pase temporada 2020, y no estuvo abierto por los problemas de todos conocidos. No pude usar el pase.
Ahora quieren venderme pase 2021 y me cobran diferencia, para una temporada que no sabemos si estara disponible.
Yo compre una pase que no pude usar.
Quiero un pase temporada para cuando el centro este funcionando.
No quiero pagar diferencia para otra temporada que no se sabe si estarab al 100 por 100.
Es abuso de confianza y estafa vender un producto y no cumplir.
No se dejen engañar. Si solo esquiare 1 dia en la temporada, compro ticket dia.
Robo descarado. Ponen reglas a su antojo.
Veremos que dice el Sernac de este abuso.
No sigan pagando por algo que no saben si podran usar.
