Current Home is the absolute worst company and worst customer service I have ever experienced. The fact that we are in a 25 year contract with them for thousands of dollars for solar panels on our HOME is terrifying that their service is as non-existent as it is.
After initially signing documents, everything since then has been a complete disaster with the most negligent customer service ever. We needed a new electrical panel, so Current Home contracted out a company to complete that job where we would lose power for 4-6 hours. The workers took two whole days to complete the job and stayed till midnight the first day, with zero communication that it would take longer, causing us to lose ALL of our food in the fridge and freezer. I contacted Mikayla who set everything up for us about being compensated or getting out of our contract. She couldn't answer most of those questions and sent us to her supervisor, Heaven, who quickly passed us along to her supervisor, Olivia. After expressing our disappointment and fear of being tied to them for 25 years with this kind of a start, and after a lot of back and forth, they did end up compensating us for the lost food, but it was a rough start nonetheless.
The panels were installed, but during installation, one of the panels was shattered after the workers dropped it and after an entire month, they sent out one of their workers to inspect something, where he let us know that TEN of our 21 panels were not hooked up properly and were not producing. So for the entire first month we were producing less than half of what we should have. We, of course, had a large Edison bill still and asked to be compensated for at least our bill (that was back in May, it's now the end of August and we still have not been compensated or given an answer). I called Mikayala, Olivia, the main customer service line, every day for weeks getting no response from ANYONE at the company. After calling the customer service line, I asked to speak to Olivia's supervisor, the owner of the company, where they reluctantly gave me a phone number (which was just their main phone number), an email address, and just his first name. I emailed and called and never got a response.
I am baffled by the lack of organization, communication, and common decency. I can never get a hold of anyone at the company for weeks on end, literally leaving voicemails asking for "anyone at Current Home to call me back to answer my questions." We are paying thousands of dollars for this service that is supposed to be all encompassing and better than the other companies and we are completely on our own in navigating this.When I do finally speak to someone, the tone and demeanor is condescending and leaves me feeling like I'm wasting their time, even though I'm the one spending weeks on end trying to get a hold of anyone. We've had Current Home for 5 months and we have still had an Edison bill every single month. We asked for help in configuring our Tesla app settings and finally got some suggestions. After following their suggestions, we now have our largest Edison bill yet, which makes me think they may have just been messing with us because we've had so many problems.
Current Home does NOT care about keeping their customers happy. The last time I spoke to Olivia was the end of June, where I asked about our compensation question from that very first month and for help in figuring out how to order an extension pack for our battery, because our panels and battery are not performing like we were told they would. She told me that she would have an answer for me after July 4th since most of the company was out for the holiday already. It's now August 24 and I still haven't heard anything back, despite calling and leaving voicemails for weeks. We have even reached out to DUKE several times and he is now not returning calls. Current Home and anyone associated with the company is just out right horrible.
We would literally rather pay Edison our ridiculous electric bills than deal with the headaches and chaos that is Current Home. read more
