Received a phone call from the electrical engineer today to install a sub panel on January 5, I have not agreed to anything until the complaint with your office is settled Still have not received a phone call from [redacted] on status or even a schedule, other than the one I just sent you that they ordered materialsI guess I am still confused about all the information that was taken and submitted in Oct that sat for over two months before anything got started[redacted] ###-###-####

Mr [redacted] :We have attempted to complete your solar install and we are ready to complete it You were notified your system install could not be completed last year because [redacted] did not approve any designs not submitted before October 1, All engineering and documents had to be uploaded by September 30, yet you signed on Oct 2, (with right of rescission of days that put your start of your job at Oct 5, 2015) You were also emailed from icontact stating all jobs take an average of plus days before the system is installed This means we are at Jan 5th which PEP Solar called to install your system on Jan 4th (right on time) to complete on Wednesday Jan 2016.PEP Solar keeps all records through third party sites like Icontact On November 9th a congratulations on going solar was sent out by Icontact In this communication it set the stage and detailed what is taking place in the background and how long it takes to perform the install Icontact's log shows your email address opened this message times by you.Icontact Audit: Sent original November 9th Congratulations on Going Solar : Please see attached document sent November 9th to customer called Congratulations on going solar.The fact is PEP Solar is exactly on time with the customer's install and he is refusing to allow us to proceed At some point either we are paid for a non-installed system or paid for an on time high quality solar install

Key selling point was the really good monitoring system that you includedWe purchased this monitoring system as part of the package from you, not Sun Power. We expect you to make sure that the whole system, including monitoring, is properly installed and fully, 100% operationalThe FACT is that the system is not 100% operationalThe monitoring system has shown that the system is not running properly nor is it producing "a lot" of powerPepSolar installed the monitoring and you are responsible for aggressively pushing Sun Power to provide and/or replace it in a timely mannerThis is not "above and beyond" requirements of the contract. Internet and pool pump are running. Any interference between the solar system and the pool pump is a PepSolar responsibility to resolve. At one time, the monitoring system showed that approx1/of the panels weren't producing powerThen it stopped workingIf changing out the monitoring box fixes this, greatBut if the monitoring system doesn't impact the solar system operation, then something is wrong on that end also1/of the panels shouldn't be shut offI'm sure that you've installed your systems in other homes that have a pool, so what's different here? You said that you have some good engineers, well let them engineer and figure out how to fix the problemNo one has been on-site to look at the situation. I authorized final payment when you told us that the system was fully operational, that wasn't accurateThe system is not working as it should, doesn't matter what part isn't working, you're responsible for providing the total package in working order. Para 1C of the contract talks about performance guarantee and actual. Neither of these requirements are being met. I went back over our past APS electric bills since the time that you told us the system was up and running. First credit on April billOn peak kWh, off peak kWh. The system is not working according to contract

Revdex.com:
I have reviewed the response made by the business in reference to complaint ID [redacted], and have determined that this proposed action would not resolve my complaint.  For your reference, details of the offer I reviewed appear below.
I would like to address PEP Solar's / [redacted] attempt to defame me by stating I am trying to extort money from his company. I have worked hard over  the years to maintain excellent credit and to keep working relationships with  all of whom I do business with, and only recently has that changed with PEP  Solar. I hope to see this turn around. We have a business deal of which I have been making my payments as agreed and my problem is with the system PEP Solar installed on my house is not working as promised. I only want to be  reimbursed for any power the panel has not produced since installation.  If it can be shown that the panel has been producing what was promised since installation, I do not want or expect any compensation. That is not extortion, it is a business transaction. I paid for 26 panels and want 26 working panels along with a monitoring system which shows they are all working properly.  Additionally, I feel compelled to mention that I never threatened to complain to the Revdex.com. I did complain to representatives of PEP Solar about my dissatisfaction, without results. My last call on 6/24/15 at 3:31 PM was to [redacted], the Senior Energy Consultant who sold us the system in December 2014. I complained to him and he assured me [redacted] would call me by the end of the next day.  I waited an extra day after not hearing from either Sean or another PEP Solar representative and filed my formal complaint on Friday night.  Also my email on 6/19/15 to [redacted] with a copy to [redacted], [redacted] Technical Support, [redacted], [redacted], [redacted], [redacted] and [redacted] went unanswered by all.  Again, my motivation for filing the complaint was to let PEP Solar know that I am very dissatisfied with the system along with the communication I am receiving. While I was not pleased to have to file the complaint, I saw no other way to get results. I look forward to resolving this issue in a positive manner. 
Regards,
[redacted]

I have reviewed the response made by the business in reference to complaint ID [redacted], and have determined that this proposed action would not resolve my complaint.  For your reference, details of the offer I reviewed appear below.
Good afternoon,The system will not allow me to enter my response.PEP solar caused undo financial hardship on my family after I complained about the installation time frames. We were told that our system would be up and producing power in 90 days by their sales staff. After I said I was going to cancell the contract for lack action on their part, they installed the solar panels on our home on the 90th day. Immediately after that they began to slow play the paperwork to [redacted]. At first they didn't send it, which caused a delay in the solar hook-up. Next they sent incomplete paperwork to [redacted] which delayed the solar once again. Each delay took about 3 weeks. This caused us to make a high electric payment and a solar payment for two months. By them not processing the paperwork in a timely manner with [redacted] caused an incredible financial hardship on my family. We had to wait to pay other bills. This game that was played, let me know how this company truly operates. How many other families have they done this to.I am srtill waiting for the company to send me the link so I can moniter our solar production to ensure we stay within power usage so I don't have to continue to pay high electric bills and solar payments. I spoke to PEP management and they stated that it would be a while before they would send it to me because they received more business. Am I not a paying customer that had to wait to get my solar? Why do we have to wait when we already paid for the service they promised to provide.PEP Soler needs to pay for our electric that we had to use when we should have been using solar. For two months our solar bill was $840 compared to the $488 in solar payments.They need to be held accountable for their inactions.
