Poor Customer Service
Several reviewers have expressed dissatisfaction with the company's customer service. Ben Jenkins had a particularly unpleasant experience, complaining that he was "messed around" by the company since December 2022. He described receiving emails cancelling appointments and then finally receiving a survey with promises that were never fulfilled. He expressed disbelief at the lack of professionalism and decency shown by the company, warning others to avoid them.
Lack of Follow-Up
Basil Hatahet also had a negative experience, reporting that the company failed to call him back despite promising to do so. He questioned whether the company was a one-man band, implying that they were not capable of following up on their commitments.
Positive Experience
Ian Hall, on the other hand, had a very different experience. He rated the company 5 stars, praising their "top class" people and their knowledge about abundance. He also commended their advocacy of renewable technologies, describing the individuals he interacted with as "helpful".
