Loan shark

They will give an impression that they offer 'no-upfront' fee loan for solar projects. However, they extract upfront fees ranging 10-20% of the total project cost as 'interest only' payments over the first 17 months. You will have to carefully look through the payment schedule in pages 2-3 of their loan docs to understand how they do it. The way they do is by starting with (i) low payments for the first 17 months, and (ii) 2 deferred initial payments. By doings these, they make sure you pay $0 towards principal over these months (it all goes towards accrued interests), and your loan balance remains the same. STAY AWAY FROM THESE LOAN SHARKS

Worst Customer Service EVER!

If I could give a negative rating I would. Sadly I am part of the group that used Moxie Solar for my solar project. I tried contacting Sunlight Financial when I began experiencing issues with Moxie. Each time they promised someone would call me back. Almost a year later I am still waiting for a simple phone call back. This company allowed Moxie to submit “completed” installation projects resulting in Moxie to get paid while customers like me began paying on unfinished projects. My project is going on a year of simply having the panels on my roof - wires are still dangling on the side of my house not connected to anything. Sunlight Financial is a money-hungry corporation that only cares about businesses and getting paid while screwing over the customer - probably because they think the customer is powerless. Sunlight Financial could’ve avoided what is coming by simply following through with returned calls and keeping the customer in the loop.

ERIC THE MAN

This young man, Eric F came to me with professionalism, confidence in letting me know how everything worked, operate, generate, facilitate, and most of all the savings I will get in the near future after seeing my last energy bill. I am very satisfied with the outcome of service. Your company completed the task in a timely manner. Looks great on my roof Eric communicated with me through the whole process. I could not have gotten a better representative. He is a great asset to your company he is definitely a keeper. Thanks again Eric and sunlight financial 1010 we all win.

I would give them no stars!

Just don't do it. I have made extra payments and they apply to interest. They don't even talk to you about it. They keep repeating scripts. Horrible company. Just don't do it!!!

Don't use them, you'll be e sorry

We had a solar panel installed by a terrible company who now filed bankruptcy due to their horrible service. Our solar panel did not work for 1 minute since 2019. They sent out so called technicians who were clueless. Sunlight now has 30000 dollars they want from us and put it on my husband's credit. Would you pay for something that never worked? Sunlight is doing business with scam companies and don't care if you get left behind.

Scam don't do it

walk away if they are involved the bank will benefit not you!! the bank will get paid before the job is completed and you will be stuck paying payments on a non completed system Copied another review couldn't have been said better
