They offer value for my money even though I don't think I have enough panels to radically cover the electricity I use. Customer service was overall quite good, though sometimes they are a little awkward to deal with.

Billing practices very bad. Unable to set up automatic payment through credit card. I have to pay $7.50 a month for paper Billings. I do not permit direct access to my bank accounts. This for reasons of overall security.

Reply from Sunrun

We offer a discount for making your monthly payments using autopayment because of the additional resources needed to process checks every month. If we didn't have auto-payment processing 80,000 checks manually would be very expensive and time-consuming. You are not required to sign up for automatic payments. However, you will see the ACH opt-out adjustment $ 7.50 on your solar bills each month. If you change your mind, you can sign up for automatic payments using your checking or savings account on the customer website or by calling this number.

Nikola Yonkers, NY

I feel I was misled on how sun run works and I am constantly paying two bills for electrical, so it's not worth it. The equipment is working but it's not working at max capacity as promised. They put me into a contract to lease their equipment and guarantee me at installation a reduced bills to only one payment but I am still making another payment.

7 years ago

Reply from Sunrun

Hello Nikola, we are so sorry to hear about your experience this is not the Sunrun norm. 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.

I liked the salesman that sold me the product. The installation process was fine and they were professional about it. I haven't had a problem with the equipment, it has worked the way it is supposed to. They were supposed to perform an analysis or me and they haven't and I have been waiting since last October. I was not happy with the year, I felt I had paid more than I should have. My electric bill was more than it would have been without solar.

Hello Kevin, we are sorry to hear that we dropped the ball with your savings analysis.

After install was performed, customer service was poor. They were not trained to answer questions about the backup battery. After much complaining I did get a senior customer service person who was very helpful. Had used SunRuns roofing company, and had two roofing leaks, leaks were due to poorly trained roofers.

Wynn Slothower

Their plan is somewhat expensive and the savings are minimal and includes a 2.5% annual increase per year. I didn't like the mandatory increase. That was the biggest reason why we didn't go with Sunrun.

8 years ago

Reply from Sunrun

Hello Wynn, thank you for sharing your experience. We understand your main concerns with the 2.5% increase. We want to provide more info on this matter. You able to opt in an agreement that doesn't include the annual increase. This is to account for economic inflation over the next 20 years. By comparison, utility rates tend to rise at a rate of 4-6% per year on average. Since the annual increase never changes, the customer can still anticipate their costs over the next 20 years. 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.

The original guy that talked to us was very affable and he seemed like he knew what he was talking about. But the process got stuck with the follow ups with the company. They tell you they're going to let you know every move they're making. They don't tell you anything. Suddenly they are and then all of a sudden it's a lot different from what they said. Our bill's gone up rather than down.

Fernando Rivera is very patient representative. He came to my home 5 times. My husband doesn’t not easily trust what salesman says about solar. We have stories of people having to pay a very large bill at the end of the year. We have heard people say their PG&E bill is still high because some how solar was only covering 65% of the power usage. Fernando explained to us why this could happen. Fernando is very knowledgeable about the complex process. Even the day of installation he was here before the whole crew arrived. He’s is respectful, not pushy.
