Enphase equipment

We had a bit of problems with the enphase equipment from day one. Starting in May of 2025 when it was installed. A couple of panels don't work and we wait and wait for it to be resolved and getting the right parts to fix it. Has nothing to do with Sunlight but rather Enphase.

Funded Loan, project not complete

Sunlight fully funded a $80000 loan without the project being complete. $40k worth of batteries not installed much less delivered. Took advantage of my elderly father with English as his second language.

Predatory company practices

Sunlight Financial has shown terrible customer service and unprofessional conduct. I was charged an NSF fee even though I had already updated my checking account information. The company hides behind vague language the fact that it takes three full days for account updates to process is hidden and not clearly stated in their disclosure. Because of this lack of transparency, the payment was routed to the wrong account, and I was unfairly penalized. When I reached out to resolve the issue, I encountered unhelpful and unprofessional staff who refused to take responsibility. Instead of acknowledging their failure to disclose critical information, they blamed me and insisted on enforcing an unjustified fee. This kind of behavior is predatory and unacceptable. Customers should not be punished for internal system delays and poorly worded disclosures that bury important details. Sunlight Financial’s practices undermine trust and reflect a lack of accountability. I would strongly advise others to avoid doing business with this company.

Hidden fees, unclear practices

I would never trust Sunlight Financial again. I generated the loan payoff letter, received the balance, and paid it off. Two days later, I received a notification stating that I still owed $3.10 because I had paid it off on a Saturday, as if that were my fault. They don’t process payments until Mondays, which is absurd. The agent was nice, but the company’s practices are idiotic! The agent even said that the 3.10 were due to my principle yet generally when you do a payoff letter it will include everything so why the 3.10?! Never again don’t trust this company!!

Thieves Don't do business with this company.

First call to customer service regarding if extra payments would to be applied to principal was Immediately met with an Aggressive and demining tone as if she was speaking to her child, husband or a homeless person. Of A EXTRA $400PAYEMENT 340.00 GOES TO INTERESS AND 60 GOES TO PRINCIPLE NO MATTER WHAT! NO EARLY PAYOFF

Frauds

This company defraud people out of money, and they'll try to take your home too. Instead of filing a ucc fixture lien, they file a lien on your title that prevents you from selling your home. Im getting ready to lawyer up by June 30th if they don't resolve the issue. I've been calling them for a month and so has the buyers agent. We've had them on 3 way call with cross river twice.
