Snowmannn Frost Dana Point, CA

Sunova pasted a Sunrun sticker on my inverter that states to call a Sunrun number for servive. I contacted the Sunrun number and was told that there was no contract to service my system. I called Sunova about it. The botyon line was if i needed service they Would contact me in a month ir mote to set up a service date! In addition they misrepresented the ammount of solar power the system can produce, it will not match my historical use and bottm line will never save on my overall electric bill. P My recommendation is to avoid this company.

Charlie Hoffman, NJ

Sunnova SUCKS! You can NOT monitor your solar system real-time! The customer service call center is in Belize, Oscar the center manager REFUSED to give me the corporate number for me to complain! I’m paying a lot of money for a solar power system that I DO NOT know if it is producing, because I can not monitor it in real time! All Oscar kept saying was that he was a customer service only! As per my contract, SUNNOVA is supposed to monitor, maintain, repair and support my system! DO NOT USE THIS COMPANY!

Fabio Rocha Phoenix, AZ

What can I say? My lease goes up every month yet electricity prices haven't risen by the same amount in Arizona. In winter, my bill is around $40 but with a lease of $150 it's just not worth the savings on the summer months. During summer sysem prduces 30% of my energy. Was promised WAY more thn that. I want out and the peace of mind of not having to pay ever increasing instalments for the next 19 years.

Sunnova has been ripping me off from day one. Their systems do not provide the adequate amount of kilowatts per month to power your home. You get billed both by Sunnova and your local carrier. If your considering solar for your home, run don’t walk run away from this company. They are crooks. Those of you who are suffering like me with Sunnova please contact me.

She's 80 years old and the stress over all this is killing her. Not to mention when sunnova came out to service her system their company van sideswiped my suv and didn't say nothing. Hit and run. Luckily the neighbor witnessed it all. Over four months now they say their gonna pay for the damage to my vehicle but keep slow playing me .......they prey on elderly people and a class action lawsuit needs be done asap.

My system went down on July 12, 2019. I did not get a call from Sunnova. I contacted Sunnova about a week later and have been getting the run around since. In 2 days it will be ONE (1) MONTH since my system stopped working. I am tired calling Sunnova. All they do is to give me a case number. I have two (2) case numbers but a NON-working system. Who is going to pay my power bill? I use to encourage my neighbors to get a Sunnova system. No longer. I will let them know about the lousy customer service. So sorry I ever got this system.

I am a customer for a year. I called multiple times about my production. 18 panels were tripped but they did not even care about my concerns. I called 4 weeks in a row. Nobody ever tried to call back. I called the installer momentum solar who blamed sunova for not giving them a wok order. I would not trust sunova representatives. They were supposed to get back to me but it’s been 2 months , I did not recieve an update or a call. I would not trust their contract at all.

Horrible company! Avoid Sunnova, there are much better options. I was charged their $300 UCC fee for a total of $600 during a refinance of my home. When I called to correct their mistake I was told they would not be correcting the problem. When I asked how to file a formal complaint, the rep told me she would pass along my sentiments. I said that wasn't good enough I'd like her supervisor's contact information and was denied. I asked to speak with any other representative and was denied.

Run, don't walk away from this company! They don't tell you how they are going to install your panels in a way that prevents you from doing any normal maintenance on your roof and how they are going to gouge you when you need your panels moved. $6000 to move panels on a house that's less than 1100 sq. ft. That erases all your savings and far more! Customer service is the WORST! Never call back. Horrible!

Not only does the system under perform but the customer service is appalling.

We had decided not to get solar, when this salesman, Paul L. came to our house. We told him, "no," but he came back again, so we gave him an appointment. He was very nice and honest, he sold us and we took happy pictures and he left. He never checked on us when everything went wrong from the contract to the installation to the running of the system. The customer service of this company is not good. The people are nice enough on the phone, the problems must be in house because things do not get resolved or corrected.

So far, just a couple of weeks in, things are going pretty poorly. A third of the panels weren't working after install and, even though it was the install company that told us this, nobody crew was sent to fix things until I called. I was told by the install company that I'm still on the hook for for full payment even if the equipment isn't working. Starting to look like one of the worst decisions I've made in my fifty years on the planet... more to come.
