SolarCity

It’s a scam you will save a little to no money
They will put a lien on your home even though they say they will not calling it something else.
They make all of their money from subsidies from the government not you.
They will not maintain the system as they promise
You are stuck with the 20 year lease and they make it virtually impossible to get out of without paying many thousands and thousands of dollars
Solar will only account for 30% of your bill and then the only difference in price will be for $.21 a kilowatt to 14 cents so you will only save an average of $ 30 a month typically.
The panels are very heavy on your roof and you will have tons of holes if you ever get it removed. You will not get it removed unless you will pay $ 10,000 to break a contract. You will be stuck with dealing with transferring a legal contract to a new owner should u sell which will be more issues
10 years from now the panels will be obsolete they will not upgrade them.
Customer service virtually nonexistent once you get the panels installed

Great Company full of Integrity. Great customer service. Install crew top notch! Also, this company works with Habitat for Humanity for Veterans, Give Power for countries in need for lights in their schools.

I wish I can write this review without giving a star to this company. I ended up working with several customer service rep in another state and I reported my concerns especially living in NY. Apparently all the customer service representatives all magically quit within a day or two and some just didn’t know what they were talking about. Unfortunately I was told that even if it snows the panels would still be able to generate solar power since the heat from the panels would melt the snow (which was a lie). Then the company has changed my contract multiple times without providing me with an updated signed copy.
The installers were great and professional. The main electrician that worked on the panel and upgraded the circuit breaker.
After the installation, the company has disappointed me yet again. Losing my contract and then I’m basically paying now for their mistake.
If the company promises you $ 5,000 incentive or rebate. It doesn’t come to you. It went straight to the company and PSEG LI. I got nothing out of the deal except for headaches

Outstanding installation and overall solar process from beginning to end… we would highly recommend. Especially the install team we had called Sons of Pitches. Very clean, polite, organized and Professional! We are very happy and impressed with the entire process so far… Here’s to many years of solar savings together!

I was tempted to do business with this company. I asked them for 3 local references for an apple to apple comparison. After 6 emails, and 5 weeks. This is the reply I got from Dan Parker, one of their account managers. The map that was sent to me, was blurred, providing me with little information if this was a Solar city customer, or another company. They are so big, but yet have no customers who are willing to share their experiences with prospective new customers? Very odd!
I’m sorry we do not give out exact addresses to prevent the unwanted solicitation of our valued customer… but did you look at the map???
Maps often include streets… to help find general locations.
My question though is this… Do you neighbors pay your utility bill or do you?
Why should it matter if your neighbors have solar panels if you are the one that is receives the benefit? AND you are the one who feels the weight of the continually rising utilities rates

After more than a year they came and turned the system on. Spoke to one who claims to be the president, he did not have any clear knowledge about the $ 5,000 incentive but did indicate that there is also a $ 5,000 rebate, so now there is both a rebate and incentive. He was supposed to check it out and get back to us that day but he did not. They agreed to pay for our damages but again want us to sign all kind of sh@@t to get it (not gonna happen). At this point in time getting these panels off our roof seems like the best thing to do due to all that they have put us through. That is, untrustworthy, deceitful, difficult to deal with etc. Remember the name of this business people SOLARCity don’t even deal with them. Also, they have their friends come on Unilocal to write reviews about how great they are YEAH RIGHT!!!

As of yesterday, my home is functioning on solar power. The process was very easy as solar city took care of everything. I have not had any issues with leaks. I highly recommend this company.

Having driven 3 Priuses over the past 10 years, I have fallen in love with clean energy and desired to further reduce my carbon footprint. After discussing this objective with a power management consultant, I was referred to SolarCity in Hauppauge, NY and given an outline for the installation of our panels. Happily, everything went as expected and all the details and paperwork were taken care of by SolarCity whose representatives proved very helpful in the evolution of this process. Representatives showed up at our home for an onsite inspection as scheduled and were courteous, efficient and helpful. The panels were installed as promised and after approval was given by PSE&G, we turned on the switch and, happily, we’ve been generating our own electricity for several days now, even on rainy days when the sun is not in the equation. In short, we couldn’t be happier and look forward to a long association with SolarCity.
