What Customers Are Saying
Terrible experience with these guys. They're customer service representatives are assholes and are horrible to deal with. They'll screw you over on the loans and try to hold you hostage. Find someone more reputable and upstanding.
Our solar contractor took the money and ran! We have a solar project incomplete and a ban unwillingly to finish the project. They payed out the contractor in FULL WITHOUT any idea how far he was coming alone on the job. Another 11.5k is needed to complete our solar project and we are expected to pay out of pocket since the bank payed the contractor. Nope Sunlight was made aware of this situation in February and here we are October and still no assistance. I call every other day and I’m told “we’re working on it” “waiting on an update” “waiting for approval” oh and my persona favorite “ technically we don’t need to help you, we are doing this as a kind gesture” Don’t do business with them. Check out BBB reviews as well. Customer service is non existent. They are just as fraudulent as these companies who are payed in full and don’t complete my work
Please stay away from them... totally unprofessional, unreasonable and their customer service is the worst. Even 1 star is too generous here.
They are in bed with corrupt solar contractors. One in particular is now bankrupt. Imagine being on the hook to pay for a service you never received!
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
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.
