when I got it I was told my electric bill would be no more than 11 dollars a month, I have paid over 50 dollares the last 2 month on top of my SunRun bill.

Thank you for your communication. The Sunrun invoice will have the total amount produced. Your utility bill will show how much excess energy was pushed to the utility grid and stored as a credit. Your utility bill will also detail how much additional energy you needed to purchase from the utility.

Sales person was told me that we will pay some amount of money every month. Reality is, we pay to Sunrun and separate check to utilitie company every month

7 years ago

Reply from Sunrun

Thank you for reaching out to us, Mario. We certainly hate to hear this. We want to help with your situation and initiate our goal of providing a positive customer experience. Keep in mind that the size of your utility bill is based on your usage. If your bill is higher than last year, you may be using more power than last year. Since your Sunrun rate is lower than that of your utility, that means you'd be paying even more for your current usage without solar. In other words, you're still saving.

BRUCE WEBB

Wow where to begin, we had them install solar 2 years ago and we’ve had nothing but issues. Last September it stopped working, there response we will try to get someone out as soon as possible 2 weeks later tech showed up does a few inspections and we’re up and running. Nice in the meantime my electric bill is $1100.00 higher because of having to run my A/C because of a heat wave nice there response oh we will discount our Sun Run bill $100.00 so $1300.00 electric bill for one month. Now fast forward to this August low and behold San Diego has another heat wave and guess what solar goes down again my first two calls to the company it’s let’s try and reboot the system with no luck. We will send out a tech to look at it but it’s going to be two weeks again. No way not again so my wife and I start calling and to be honest after nine phone calls and getting hung up on (oh sorry we lost your call) I finally went Karen on the elevation rep Brandon who didn’t like being called out for his crappy take it or leave attitude. So in closing don’t go with this company I’m doing my research on them it’s best to go with a company that can provide service after they do the installation. They like the slam bam we’ve got the install there customer service after that is pathetic.

Andrew Spear

Great sales pitch... But poor, misleading, and possibly criminal support. Failed to notify us of a system failure that occurred in February, leading us to receive a hefty $5500+ bill from our electric company. The Sunrun contract claims they will monitor your system and ensure it is performing as per your contract... this is absolutely false. The call center reps refused to escalate my call, explain why they failed to notify us, or explain why we are still having to pay our monthly PPA despite having a downed system... They claim the system states there is an issue with the inverter, and they have been unable to secure the part since February. They will not send a tech out to investigate the issue without an out-of-pocket service fee. It's strange new installs can continue, which would require an inverter, yet they are unable to replace my system's failed unit.... Steer clear of Sunrun!!

Lena Totah

DO NOT USE THIS COMPANY!!! We recently added more panels to our existing panels. Ever since, our true-up charges have gone sky rock, even with one less person living in the house and one less car being charged. I've emailed and called Sunrun SEVERAL times to explain how my true-up charges were in the thousands (yes, thousands). I was never able to get a clear answer. I ended up calling PG&E myself to find out that they have not received anything from the grid in over 12 months. Which means, we are not getting credit for unused electricity. All this while charging us $61 a month for monitoring our units. Mind you, this is not the first issue we've had with Sunrun. Do your research and look into other companies.

Think twice about sunrun . They didn’t install the panels flat on the roof . This causes a major problem with pigeons. Two of my grandchildren have gotten very ill from the feces that falls off of my roof. I have contacted them about this problem and their solution is for me to pay to have them come out and put critter guard At my expense. My suggestion is to find another company that’s responsible for their products and quit putting that expense onto the customer.
