Verified ReviewerInherited the solar system that is not on
I cannot get a hold of anyone to help me turn on my system that I inherited when I bought this house.
- No pro right now
- Horrible customer service or lack their of
Preferred solution: I need the inspection completed, and the solar turned on
So many reasons
- - The reviewer hates Tesla/Elon.
- - They say SolarCity lease lied about savings.
- - Customer service was slow and there was a long wait.
1. HATE tesla/Elon
2.
We were lied to when signing lease with solar city about how much we would save.
3. called once, electric bill was somewhat high, they ran test, reset something, said it was fine. Asked for a copy of report, told NO, they do not give the results out..HIDING SOMETHING?
4. CUSTOMER SERVICE WOULD GET A NEGATIVE NUMBER IF POSSIBLE.
Takes forever!!! It's been over 70 minutes when I finally got help.
10 minutes later I got what I needed.
5. Do your research.Do your research.
Unable to reach customer service
Keep calling, but get sent around in a circle. Then when I choose chat they wanted to change me $5 to talk to a representative

Verified Reviewer |Tesla inverter
- - Used Smart Wave Solar as third party.
- - Tesla inverter failed; replacement took 2 weeks.
- - Promises were false; we called city and utilities.
We used Smart Wave Solar as a third party for our system. Poor customer service, and the Tesla inverter was bad.
We had to find the problem, and it took 2 weeks to get a new one. It is working now, we think, but it was very frustrating. I would do my homework on solar installers before purchasing for sure next time.
I am very disappointed in the sales process and false promises regarding the timing of it all. We had to call the city and power companies to keep the process moving.
- Broken from the start
Preferred solution: Price reduction
Regarding my solar panel
I have SolarCity panels. All I need is an email regarding my account that I don't have a loan.
Thanks.
Preferred solution: Explanation regarding my solar city panels.

Verified ReviewerResolved: Schedule a service
- - Difficulty scheduling Energy Service; app prompts, materials arrived.
- - Automated system looped; 45-minute wait for a human agent; needs a call.
I tried to schedule an Energy Service appointment. It asked me to download the Tesla app.
It asked me to look for Energy Support on the app. But I can't find it. The automated operator sent me to learn mode so many times. Then finally brought me to wait for a human agent.
I was waiting for 45 minutes but still can't get to talk to the operator.
I need to talk to a human operator to set up the appointment ASAP since the materials arrived at my home already. So please call me to set up a service appointment.
Preferred solution: Human operator call me
User's recommendation: There must be an option to bypass automatic operator. It’s dump.

Verified ReviewerCannot find anyone to speak to. Poor customer service and no one ever available.
- - The solar inverter installed was defective.
- - No one will return calls.
- - Avoid Smart Wave Solar; they are a Tesla customer.
Our solar inverter installed was bad. No one will return calls.
Do not use Smart Wave Solar, who is a Tesla customer. They should not be offering a Tesla inverter as they are not returning the calls to the installer either.
- Bad inverter
Preferred solution: Deliver product or service ordered
User's recommendation: Don't buy a tesla inverter

Verified ReviewerResolved: #1 . . . . Error codes on my solar panel system, and #2 . . . . I want to pay off my entire bill with you
- - Error Code 2x1F: AC voltage too high; solar can't be used.
- - The customer wants to pay the solar bill and asks for the amount and mailing address.
#1 . .
. . Have not been able to use solar as I get a Error Code 2x1F on the system, stating that the "AC Voltage is too High" (want to be responsible for a possible fire???)
#2 . .
. . I am moving to another state, and want to pay off the entire solar panel bill.
I do not understand the write ups you have on line for doing so. Please let me know how much and where to send the check/money order/etc, to.

User's recommendation: Don't use Tesla for ANYTHING. You can't call them or speak to a live person
No live person. Long wait times.
- - Prefers a live person for support.
- - Prompts did not answer my questions.
- - Tried to get answers about a father's account after his passing.
Use a live person!! All the prompts and still didnt get my questions answered.
Bad customer service.
I was trying to get answers for my fathers account (who had just passed). Changing ownership shouldnt be that difficult.

Verified Reviewer |They scheduled repair of my solar, no show
- - Solar generation stopped July 3; noticed July 10; seeking Tesla live number.
- - Cannot find Tesla live phone number; repair has not shown.
Back on July 3rd, my solar generation went down. I did not discover this until July 10th when I noticed that my app was not showing production.
Went to you who helped me notify them by phone as they do not give you live phone numbers.
For some reason, I cannot find this telephone number and their repair person is a no show after waiting 1-1/2 months with no solar. Can you direct me to the tesla live phone number?
Preferred solution: Get their repairman out to my home to repair my solar. It's been over a month and a half since they made the appointment with me for today (August 12th)
User's recommendation: If solar calls, do not walk . . . . RUN
