I did have to have them come back and I had to sort of jump through hoops to get them to come back and do some touch up painting. They said they'd be back in two weeks and never did show up. It took some questioning on my part to get them to come back to finish the job.

We're not happy with the results we are getting with our solar panels because I think we're paying more for the solar panels on our electricity than we would have just with the electricity and solar. The installation was very quick and easy. No hassles, no problems and was done in less than half a day I think. Their customer service representatives do pretty well. I think we're going to have to review our bills based on what we've been paying for our electricity and size of our house and they'll make a determination if we need more.

They did a good job. One thing that I didn't get was one of my panels was not with the right battery channels. They really pushed it through as soon as they could and the installers work really fast. The circuits that they told me were going to be working aren't working.

They first came out and looked at the roof and the sun exposure and then they drew up a plan and then they came out in installed it. Everything works the way it is supposed to. SunRun did the work properly and efficiently. The system works well, however I had a question about the placement of solar panels and they did not adequately addressed it.

Lynn in Algonquin Algonquin, IL

Well when I was selling my house I would not receive updates from the customer service department regarding the service being switched. I actually had to contact my sale person to get me an update. Then I paid my last bill and a week later Sunrun deducted the payment t again and so I sent a copy of the duplicate payment information to customer service in July of this year. I ha e not heard from them, have not received my refund of the duplicate payment and I just don't have time to hang on the phone

Overall a good outfit. Negatives - sub-contractor installer not so good, no training/briefing on the system. The sales rep and sunrun pros were very professional. Serving the system and us over the term of the contract is, of course, an unknownn

When they were getting it set up we had a few problems. The people that actually installed it wasn't the problem. I had problems with the dates. They said they were going to do things on certain dates and it didn't happen. I haven't had any issues with the equipment.

As of this date (08-27-2019) our system is not working and hasen't since 08-13-2019! NV Energy bill for 0ver $200.00!! d it cost us around $500.00 for the last time it didn't work. We are retired, on a fixed income, and cannot afford these energy bills AND the mortgage bills for the solar system. A complaint has been made with SunRun and they said that they would give us a call in next 3 to 5 working days. That is unacceptable! We are going to have to pay NV Energy for all this time that your system is not working. We need to talk to Management and we would like to request our money back. )

When they take money out of the account they'll only do it on a certain date which that doesn't coincide with my social security. So, I have to pay extra in order to write a check or call in my payments because they can't take it out on the dates I would like. So far everything has worked perfectly. It's pretty easy to turn on and get it going.

My solar power is becoming expensive. I signed up for a 3% escalation each year and I'm only half way through the lease. In addition, I believe that panels have degenerated and newer panels are more efficient than 10 year old technology.

Hello Terry P. The thing to keep in mind is that utility rates have historically increased faster than the rate of our annual increase, and you'll still be protected from those rate hikes. Therefore your savings should increase over time because you most likely will not paying those higher rates to the utility.

James Walsh

When we signed up several years ago there were not that many options. It is my impression that there are far more now and that some of the deals would be more advantageous to me. Secondly, because of my finances I never set up automatic payments from my bank account. Banks are unforgiving if you live month to month and sometimes run short. I'd be happy to set up autopay with my credit card but that is not an option you offer. Too bad. The situation is irritating to us both.

Hello James W. We are happy to hear that you are one of our long term customers! Thank you for helping us create a planet run by the sun. Sunrun prefers that customers sign up for autopay because it ensures that a payment is made on time each month. This reduces the amount of time and resources dedicated to collecting payments from customers. It is a convenient option for customers because it occurs automatically and they don't have to worry about due dates and sending checks.

The sales process was relatively straight-forward and the installation was quick. However, there has been no post-installation follow-up to check in with the customer for system operation or satisfaction. Technical data is transmitted wireless, but some on-site visit after a year or two would have been nice.

The panels appear to be new and up to date and everything is working just fine. In signing up I was led to believe that I should have my power bill literally cut in half if not more and I'm still short every year by quite a bit. Sunrun isn't really working for me in that respect.
