      I really wish I could leave zero stars. Solar panels are a huge waste of money and provide very little return. Our salesman did a great job of telling us, "I can't tell you you'll save this much, but you will barely have an electric bill." **** three years in, and I can't say the panels justify the small amount we get in credits. Also, when it came time to replace our roof, Momentum never followed through with their contractual statement of one free removal. I called multiple times to follow up with my initial request and NEVER received a call back. Fortunately, our insurance paid for it, but the roofing company absorbed the extra costs. We fully regret buying solar, especially with Momentum and make it known to everyone who asks.

      Terrible experience! Their **** ******* brushed off major issues as oversights and left me with a mismatched roof after a year of inspections. Now, Im stuck footing the bill for a new roof or canceling the project while they still collect government funds. Avoid at all costs!

      Horrible service, horrible company. We now have the bank investigating our claims and request to remove the panels as solar momentum lied to us in multiple levels. The first lie told was that if we have were unhappy with the solar panels, if there was a lack of professionalism, or if there were damages to our home that they would remove the panels. Within 10 minutes of installation the professional workers hit the fiber line to our WiFi system. We live in a home where the WiFi is wired through the walls and this was information constantly reported to momentum prior to installation. They lied and told us that they are aware and that they will not make any damages when installing. Days later after installation we still were without WiFi and a contractor had to come out as a regular technician with Summit Broadband could not fix the damages solar momentum did. A week after installation more problems became apparent as none of our electrical outlets outside of our home work and are neighbors outdoor outlets do not work either. When we called momentum with our complaints and asked them to remove the panels they told us they could not as the bank IGF is the only ones with the authority to remove them. Called IGF and they told us that they have to investigate our claims to remove the panels as we did not reach out to them prior to the 7 day grace ******* Which by the way the sales associate never said there was a grace ******* So now Im making this customer review/complaint as my boyfriend and I want this nightmare to end. We want them to remove the panels and pay for the damages they have done to our home. We do not recommend this company to anyone as we just found out that our electric company hasnt even received an application for the solar panels from their company. We also still have not received the contract. Please if you can help us resolve this as we are dealing with false advertisement, lack of professional, and borderline fraud/scam from solar momentum.

      If I could give negative stars I would. Received a call on Tuesday morning, agreed to an appointment on Saturday. 3 hours later, I received another sales call from the same company and phone number. at that time stated i had already spoken with someone and agreed to an appointment on Saturday. 2 hours later, I received a 3rd sales call from same company and number by this time I had absolutely had it, told them to cancel my Saturday appointment as apparently they could not take YES for an answer. Needless to say, Saturday afternoon came around and the person that showed up at the door looked very unprofessional, no badge, no uniform etc. When my husband told him that we had cancelled the appointment as they messed up by harassing me with calls, salesperson refused to leave from front door. I had to threaten to call the police to get him to leave front entry, he proceeded to stand at end of driveway on phone with arms flailing for another 10 minutes. Finally got in his car and drove away. There was absolutely no way I was letting a salesperson that looked like him into my home for fear he was casing the place.

      The Momentive solar came out in September with an agent. The agent explained about a inspection to be done on the roof. He said, once the inspection is done and the roof is in good condition. then the panels will be placed on the roof. He said the company wouldn't put panels on a bad roof. I was told the roof was in good condition, So the panels were place on the roof. After that two of the room upstairs the ceilings were leaking. I called and was told someone would get back to me. The calls became troublesome. Why, because I was told someone will call back or transfer to a different department which no one answered. I receive a nasty called from someone who claimed he was the President. He told me whoever lives upstairs climbed up and did the damage to the ceilings. The calls on my end became useless i even called them to remove the panels so i can take care of my roof. I was told they cannot do that. So, I called PSEG service asked them not to turn on the service. Of, course I had to write and send emails showing my attempts to resolve this issue.

      I cannot recommend strongly enough that you avoid Momentum Solar at all costs. The first time we met with them an otherwise productive appointment ended with a hard sell pressure tactic to sign today. The manager insisted we sign the deal and if we found a better deal, he promised to give us $1000 and let us out of the deal.A follow up appointment end up in a legitimate argument in which the representative raised his voice with me, telling me I was making a mistake by considering a small, family-owned local firm. His reasoning was that they would go out of business or owner might die and then I would have no one to turn to if I had a problem. Today, three weeks later, I received another follow up call. I asked to be removed from their system and to never be called again. They asked one last time if I was sure that I did not want to review their new proposal fresh from engineering. When I refused, they hung up on me.

      I intended to get solar in Sept 2023. At that point, I expressed I could not get solar until my roof is replaced. They still pushed forward with paperwork to start the project of getting solar by submitting a notice of commencement. They mentioned they had a roofing company connected to their company, in which I attempted to work with. They came back with numerous bids which would eventually mount up to close to $120K for a roof! I told them I was canceling the project. I never heard from the representative or anyone else from the office. Fast forward 5 months later. I was in the process of getting a HELOC and found out they never never submitted the notice of termination. I have literally been trying to contact someone to submit the paperwork to county or to provide me with an affidavit so I could do so. Close to 2 months later, I still have yet to receive any contact from someone in the building and plans department. Every time I call, I have been old **** was the only person who could help me. I have left numerous messages for **** to contact me and still nothing. My HELOC was held up because they wanted me to clear the **** I have expressed this numerous times and still have yet to hear from someone. If I could rate this company a 0, I would. They have **** poor customer service. Their customer service do not have email access and can not send me anything. All they can do is contact certain people via Text messaging. And they are literally just leaving messages, no one ever responds.

      THIS COMPANY IS A SCAM!!!!!!!!We got scammed by this company. The offer that the seller presented to us after reviewing the account statements of the electricity company that we have (SECO), let us know that our consumption was an estimated ****** kWh and he was going to install panels that would cover ****** kWh. Giving us something extra to cover any changes we had, so we accepted the offer he offered us. After the installation, we noticed that the panels were not covering anything or almost nothing of our consumption. we made several calls to address this situation The last conversation we had was that we had to wait about a year to see the benefits, which we did, we have waited a long time enough and the situation has remained the same or worse since we are paying the bill for electricity which is equal to what we consumed before the panels plus the cost of the panels causing a deficit in our budget, we contacted SECO, our electricity company, and they told us that the consumption we had before installing the panels was around ****** kWh, which was never ****** what the seller sold us. We have been trying to correct the issue with Momentum Solar and they only said that we have to pay for more panels, even that they made the error.Be very careful. Once you sign with them you are screwed!!!!
