Lou Caldwell Phoenix, AZ
you have THE WORST customer service EVER ANYWHERE. I am a ham radio op, the noise created by cheap panels far exceeds any/all FCC standards. I have been promised help with this. Results-ZERO. I am totally dissatisfied with your product and less than worthless responses. The panels work just fine. The next letter goes to the FCC, hope it costs you a lot (I will, until you fix the problem) continue to tell anybody and anybody what a disreputable company you are. The last guy you want to deal with is either the FCC or a lawyer

Shorty Tucson, AZ
Warning! Our inverter was found to be not working by accident and very high electric bill, not by your monitoring system. I have waited 2 months for a new inverter and now repair schedule is a month out. In the meantime we have missed out on our summer sunshine solar storage for winter months usage. Basically paying for a system I can’t use! They just don’t care..
Please fix my system that has been NON-Working since June. I don’t want apologies just a working system as promised in contract.

Worst company ever! Our panels were installed 2 months ago and still haven’t heard from our representative as to why they are still not working. We’ve sent email after email and no response. We called customer service and they said we should reach out to our representative. Such a frustrating situation! I regret choosing this company for solar panels. At this point we have no idea who to reach out to for answers. This whole process began at the end of May and it’s now a day from September. Horrible experience!

My inverter went out on the 16 of Aug .22 (System has only been working 3 months) I was not notified . I found out myself . It has been a week and half and all i get from Sunrun is that the inverter will take 6-8 weeks to replace as they do not keep in stock . Its under warranty but have to wait for Solar Edge the manufacture to get one or make it or what ever they do . I find this totally unacceptable.. They get you money then say screw you

After going through hours of reviewing and signing the contract, they decided to canceled me after a couple of months waiting to hear back from them. . Without any explanation, they couldn't even find the contract after sending someone to do the initial inspection. We have called and left message and email and haven't gotten an answer, beside we need more information to locate your contract.

I’ve had SunRun for two years and had the worst experience. My panels were putting out less than they were supposed to so SCE was charging me twice as much for year end .1500$ - 3000$ SunRun was supposed to discount me for the loss I received. Instead my monthly bill went from 280$-344$ .SunRun never returns calls. And customer service can’t understand you, or you them.

SunRun took over our account from Vivint. I have found their service to by abysmal! I have 8 microinverters out of 34 not reporting and it has taken months for them to schedule an appointment, then when a technician showed up all he did was look at the array and lookup my system on enphase to see that 8 microinverters were not reporting. He then entered a claim and said they need to get the parts and schedule another appointment. They should have already known what my system needed and had it on the truck before I wasted a half day of vacation time. Totally incompetent service.

I currently have Sunrun panels and signed a contract for more panels and the Tesla batteries, the panels were suppose to be installed months ago, nobody returns your phone calls, I have left dozens of message.
DO NOT USE THIS COMPANY YOU WILL BE SO SORRY YOU DID !!!!!!!
I wish I could take their panels out and start over, once you are their customer there is absolutely no customer service.

We had Sunrun put up panels in February and the system is still not working. Sunrun told us that PG&E was the hold up but we received word from PG&E that everything was approved and ready. We have been trying to get a hold of Sunrun for some time but so far, no luck. No one ever answers the phone and despite leaving message after message, we have not heard from anyone. We are frustrated to the point of wanting the entire system taken down.

One of the worse company's I've ever dealt with. We've had problems with our solar panels for more than 3 years. My wife and I have been trying to get a hold of our Sunrun reps for more than a year to help fix the issues we're having and we haven't gotten one response from the company reps. As a paying customer, all we want is to have our equipment work and not be ignored by Sunrun, but to still be paying our monthly bill and still have panels that don't work is unacceptable on so many levels. I would not recommend this company to my worse enemy!

Just had a 1PM appointment for a quote. The rep did not even show up! This was after he called me twice this week to tell me he was near my house and it would be convenient for HIM to come by then. Great for him! One of the days was a Sunday and I was not home and the other day I was at work! So here I am waiting for him when we did have an appointment and he is no where to be found. I contacted him and he told me he could be maybe here in an hour or so. I told him this is clearly a preview of what is to come - NO THANK YOU!

We never got to installation and perhaps that's a good thing. Had a signed contract, had designs for panel placement and then no communication. I emailed twice and finally called only to learn that, according to SunRun, our roof was too steep for safe installation. Why wouldn't they have discovered that when they designed the panel placement and why didn't anyone contact us right away. Makes me wonder about their customer service after installation. Definitely not a good experience but perhaps a blessing in disguise.

This is the worst company I have ever worked with. With each review I leave online, I get email the customer care email or email the online review email. I email them and receive zero response. I currently have a question about the system we have and the output we can expect. NO ONE will answer the question. I have emailed over and over and over again. It has been over two weeks and no one has contacted me. Stay away from this company unless you have months to waste waiting for them to do their job.

Sunrun installed the solar panels under the shade of a 65ft high palm tree, when easily could install some feet away from where they did. Unbelievable. The worst part is they do not fix it, they don't reply to me. BTW, the palm is on a neighbor's backyard, I have no control over it.
Be aware of this company, their sales person acts like a shield for the company, everything is wonderful until you have a problem. Then they do not answer your questions, do not fix anything. Silent. Crickets.

Mad as hell Brooklyn, NY
In a word, terrible. Their concept of customer service is to listen to you, apologize, and pass the buck to one of their contractors. There is not enough space to detail the ongoing saga of their incompetence but the tale involves missed appointments, driving 4 hours to my home where the system is installed to wait for a tech who never arrives and when you call to find out what happened they don't know!! Trust me, if you live in a rural area find a company based in your state and get referrals from existing customers.

Don't deal with this company. They're crooks. They put the panels on the roof of my house where there's shade. In 2020, my Tru-up bill from PGE was $3,000.00. In 2021, it was $4,000.00. They gave me 6 months without charging me the $170 per month, Now they resumed deducting $170 from my account, while still having to. make payments on my PGE bill.

Run from SunRun!!!
Horrible customer service! Falsifying information on their sales contract with my elderly parents. Multiple mistakes during install. Finally got it running and then it stopped for weeks. Now we have a giant true up bill. Filed a complaint with customer service and after 7 weeks and copious calls and emails we get an email response saying they closed our case without ever having spoken to the person "in charge" of resolving our dispute. Do not do business with these people.

I am the tenant in a small house in Sun City West, AZ. Solar (Sunrun) stopped functioning in August. Sunrun knew there was a problem, did NOTHING. Took several weeks for them to even respond to phone call. They outsource maintenance and finally we spoke to them (P M & M) . They were to fix the broken system in 10 days - 2 weeks, and it’s been 3 weeks and they haven’t contacted anyone, and not answering message.

If you produce more energy than you use, you will be, in essence, financially PENALIZED. This month I paid a combined total of to the utility and solar company (Sunrun) $149.76 for using 165 Kwh. Last. year I paid the utility company $103.97 for using 466 Kwh. In other words, last year I paid $ .22 or 22 cents per Kwh, and this year I am paying $.91 or 91 cents per Kwh. And in the company is pocketing the solar energy to get more $$$$ off of! Sadly this is a SCAM. I like being environmentally conscious and making solar energy, but to be financially penalized for it????

I am losing more than $400 a year with this system. I do save on electric bills but their monthly fee is way too high.
Customer support is terrible, even though they acknowledge this issue they don't do anything about, rather they disappear from communications, i saved all texts and email i may sue them if they don't resolve the problem. Already reported to BBB. The sale representative Wynn lied to me in order to sell me this system.

Agree with the previous review.
Vivint is hands down the worst vendor we have ever used on our home.
Panels and wall batteries installed 5 months ago and still not connected, and no firm date when they will be connected. Would be nice if we could blame PG&E but can’t. In fact, at one point PG&E showed up for a scheduled appointment and Vivint was a no show!!
Inexcusable and frankly ridiculous

Do not go with this company. They put the panels on our roof 6 months ago and we still don’t have service. The sales rep forgot about us. Not to mention when he 1st came to our door, he was maskless. Not sure what they get out of having solar panels on roofs with no service. I say someone say they never received their welcome gift card. Must be same sales rep because we didn’t either.

Sun Run is a joke... my roof leaked in 2 areas during installation... they won’t fix my roof I have to spend $1200.... and I’ve been paying more on my electric bill instead of saving... 2019 I paid $1000, 2020 I have to pay additional $1800 on top of my $162 monthly bill. Customer service is another joke, they promised to call me back in 2-3 days ... I called 3x no call back. I would not recommend this company even to my worst enemy .

I would give them 0 stars if I could. Our 34 panel system is supposed to be 110% offset but we keep paying the power company and sunrun. We are saving nothing, it costs us money and I'm in Arizona with 330 days a year of sun. They don't monitor your system, you do and you pretty much have to guess to see if it's working. Customer service is poorly trained and will give you the run around constantly. They were fine until we signed but now they're just awful. We have an under performing system that can't supply power for a household of 2. Ridiculous!

Reply from Sunrun
Hello Kimberly, if you own the system, we do not proactively monitor the system. Once you go solar, your utility company will begin billing you as a "net energy metering" (NEM) customer. This means instead of billing you for all of your electricity usages, your utility will only bill you for the difference between system production and how much total electricity your home needed for the month. If your solar production is used immediately in your home, it will not be sent to the grid which will cause a discrepancy between your production on mySunrun and your utility bill. For example, if the system generates 400 kWh of solar electricity and you used a total of 600 kWh of electricity in your home, your utility company will only bill you for 200 kWh of electricity. Please let us know if you have any further questions.

I just bought a house with leased panels from Sunrun. My power bill has gone up every month for 3 months. The last month by over $100.00 I need to have a new roof installed. Sunrun is going to charge me over $4,000 to take the panels down and reinstall after the new roof is put on. I do not know when Sunrun will come out. Hard to line up a roofing company. Customer service is below average.

Have had SunRun for three years, have complained about higher bills than I have ever had prior to contracting with Sunrun. Bills are probably 30% higher instead of lower. To date nothing has been done. Customer service sent a tech out who stated something was not working properly, left and never saw him again.

This company was friendly at the start and through the installation. Once the install was complete, there was damage made by their company and the roofing company they hired. I called, no response. I sent an email and heard back. They said they would have someone get back. Never heard back from them, even after many emails and calls.
They do not follow up with issues with their installs!

So, I already posted a review on March 12th, outlining our experience with Sunrun. March 27th, Sunrun responded to that review, asking for my address so they could address my concerns and find some resolution. I provided that info and more by the end of March. It is now May 15th, and I haven't heard anymore from them. If you're reading the reviews, and see that Sunrun seems to be concerned and looking to help, take that with a grain of salt. I know that Covid-19 could have had an impact, but come on; this proves my original complaint-they are disorganized, unresponsive and dismissive.

I am leasing to own my Sunrun equipment and for the reason I went with them was the promise of batteries. Its been 3 years now of promise that the batteries would be available only to finally find out Dec 2019 that the equipment that was installed by Sunrun does not support batteries, They said I do not have the right inverter and it would take a major contract change to fix this . I have been lied to by Sunrun for three years now I will never buy this product again. I am looking to buy property in NV and go off grid and will not call Sunrun.

This company is a sham! The first questions they ask is dealing with my personal financial information. They are rude! If I had financial issues would I be calling about Solar Energy add to my home? They refused to give me any info unless they delve into my financial situation! Amazing! maybe others are ok with this but I am not! Horrible. When I said I do not feel at this time that info is required...they basically said sorry....& hung up! I am livid!

I was very pleased with SunRun Solar until I actually needed some help with a repair. My solar service has been down since February this year. In 10 days that will mark 7 months from the time of this review without solar service due to a necessary repair. In July my case manager indicated that it would finally be repaired soon, but it's still down. Now I can't even get him on the phone, and nobody is communicating with me. Stay away from SunRun.

Purchased system cash $24,000 to bypass lease. Came and turned our service off two times when all cash was paid up front. Ruined a 50 year old Jade plant that is irreplaceable by stepping on it to turn the service off. Getting apologies today after two years and what they call "Apeasement" but it will take them two weeks to figure out amount. Wow really Sunrun, shame on you.

Sunrun requested that I install a new roof so I did. after the roof company installed the new roof sunrun installed there solar and damaged over 100 roof tiles. Its been almost a year and they just wont fix it they replaced two tiles that don't match and that's all they will do. If you go with them read the contract before you sign Its not what the sales men say it is.

When I inquired about whole house solar energy, their representative indicated I'd receive a phone call from them within 2-3 business days. I haven't heard from them except or an email which described in very general terms about solar energy. This email told me nothing new...but was nothing more than a brush off.

Original contract lists the purchase price after 9 years at $24,000 OR 'Fair Market Value', whichever is greater. They tell us 'fair market value' is $45,000. 80% more than the scheduled price!! Protection against market fluctuations is understandable, BUT they never disclosed ANY inkling that the purchase price could be NEARLY DOUBLE THE DISCLOSED PRICE!!! BE VERY SKEPTICAL BEFORE SIGNING ON THE DOTTED LINE!!!!!

Had our system installed in October 2018, and still waiting for it to be up and running. The only thing I hear from my project manager is "still waiting on power company to sign off". I kinda thought Surun would be more proactive.

Worst run company ever. It took them over a year to get our account up to speed when we bought this house with an existing Sunrun contract. Even now, more than two years in, they still can't tell us what they've been billing us for and they are asking for over a thousand dollars they say we owe but with no documentation provided. Many of our hours wasted on the phone with managers, etc. I've never seen such incompetence in my life, and nothing seems to fix it. Go elsewhere.

The name of their company implies what you should do "Run!!!", do not trust them. I finally was able to sell my home but had to outright buyout the lease. Now after having my house sold well over a month ago, they are hounding me for my monthly payment. Seriously I do not see how this company has such a high overall score. How many 1 star reviews have people left. This companies customer service practices are horrible. Looking forward to the day a class action lawsuit comes.

We sold our house back in September and here we going into January and still paying on a house we no longer own! I was told by supervisors and customer service reps that I will be getting a refund and I would no longer be charged! Well that was a lie I just got another email stating they’re gonna try to charge my account again for January!? I’ve asked to speak to corporate and apparently there’s no corporate number. It’s getting to the point where a lawyer might be necessary!

Hello Kayla. We bill one month behind, your last bill will be withdrawn automatically. We will only bill you for the last day the lease was in your name. If you would like for us to send you an invoice for the final bill, we would be more than happy to review and explain the billing to you. Send us a private message with your contact information.

Sales people are very knowledgeable. Project leader keeps customers updated throughout installation from start to finish.

Really It sucks. I got the project done on January 2018. It costs 33 K and it suppose to work for at least the next 25 years. All of a sudden it stopped on June 2018 ( less than 6 month of production) and it took another 3 months to be fixed. No one how many calls I did to get it fixed. It's November 13th and same problem again. The idea is great, the system if it works also great but I'm not sure if I should get it from another company NOT SUNRUN.
