The reviews highlight mixed experiences with West Coast Solar's installation and sales process. Some customers, like Breanna Schwedhelm, had a positive experience, praising the team's thorough explanations and ease of process. Sergio Romo, who had warranty parts installed, was also pleased with the work. However, others, like Matthew Rogers, had a great purchasing experience but faced issues with customer service.
Customer Service and Support
The majority of reviewers expressed disappointment and frustration with West Coast Solar's customer service and support. Many reported unreturned calls, emails, and service requests, leaving them feeling neglected and unsupported. Ryan Johnson, who initially had a great experience, was disappointed by the decline in service quality over time. Sonny Ayodele Idowu and Anqing Zhang had issues with their systems not functioning properly, but received little to no response from the company.
Warranty and Monitoring Issues
Several reviewers expressed concerns with West Coast Solar's warranty and monitoring services. Gabriel Diaz had an inverter go offline, and it took four months for the company to acknowledge the issue. Penny Carter's system was affected by a server switch, resulting in high energy bills and eventual true-up charges. Both reviewers felt that the company did not take adequate responsibility for resolving these issues.
Negative Encounters
A few reviewers had negative encounters with West Coast Solar representatives. Matt reported a reckless driver operating a company vehicle, and the owner's lack of concern when alerted to the issue. Gabriel Diaz's customer service representative failed to respond to emails, leading to frustration and distrust.
