RUN FROM THIS COMPANY!!!

Equipment works. But everything else is trash. Sales guy said the 2nd battery was $6500. That's better than the first quote I received. PLUS, their financing was better. Somehow though, that second battery was never secured. Once I was approved it should have been. The sales guy, michael, acted like he would lose his job if I canceled. I had no desire to cancel. I just wanted the second battery that I was promised. That is the WHOLE reason I purchased from US Solar Sales. Anne, the operations managers, came along and said well hey he didn't do it right but I'll honor it for $7,000. That was early February. Mid-march when the money was in hand, all of suddenly the only battery available is larger, upgraded 15kwh unit for 16,500. Add $1800 for a new inverter. WHAT?? That doesn't match what I was told. You can never ask a question on Monday and get a straight answer or response in 2-3 business days. It's always 3 to 5 weeks. So the operations manager said she would get with the CFO to see HOW to make this right. He has never responded and I've asked for follow-ups multiple times. Regrettably, I gave them a referral. Do not do business with this company. Until this review is updated, it is true and accurate. I am looking at other avenues that will cost WAY more money than sucking up your company dropped the ball to get what I was promised. Yes, the agreement is in writing. The company just chooses, for whatever reason, to stay unorganized and unprofessional. Case in point: 12/19/22 I got a random text from Ted that my supplies were here. I immediately asked about the second battery, BUT there was no status update along the way. We started this in October... Installed in January. Update: 6/27/23 I just spoke with Anne. She had been out. The missing piece in all of this is that the sales rep LIED to say I didnt want that second battery. I knew there was a disconnect somewhere, but I didnt know. Now, he stands to lose commission. Not my problem. When asked about the situation, which is probably why the Sales Director wanted to speak with me, he said i didnt say that. ALWAYS keep records and receipts. Still does not change the right hand doesnt know what the left hand is doing, but I upped to two-star. I will continually update. Update 4/23/24: still no response. Its amazing to me that the CEO has been notified, but has yet to reach out. Faye is the new Quality Assurance Manager, but somehow has no authority whatsoever. I've filed complaints with the BBB, Georgia Department of Consumer Affairs, AND TrustDale, one of the local consumer reporters. Here is the worst part. All i want to do is get the second, discounted battery they agreed to, which is the WHOLE REASON I purchased. I had to go down to one-star. MAYBE the owner, or whoever has real authority and is willing to honor the promise, will respond. Until then, I'm going to EVERY site I can to do a 1-star review. That is my only recourse, as I have priced a BRAND NEW SYSTEM to do what I cant get this specific installer to do. By the way, SolarSaleUSA lied by saying they no longer had my battery as its NO LONGER MADE!!! Just because something is no longer manufactured does not mean it is inaccessible. The company that did the review has the SAME LG BATTERY available that I currently have. Again, I just want someone from SSU to physically call me. We could have worked it out over a year ago as an advertising deal to ease the finanical hit to keep promises to a customer. I promise I'm easy to work with. I'm just STUCK with SolarEdge as I cant undo the project.
