Booking installation date and cancellation
I recently received a fresh solar recommendation from Costco, who I always trust. Because I already had Give Energy batteries, I contacted this company for two Give Energy all-in-one batteries. They gave me a quote, and I paid the deposit. The installation was booked for 9th December.
However, after weeks of waiting, I suddenly received a full refund and an email from Jack saying:
“The necessary software commissioning and integration processes are outside the scope of work our engineers are currently comfortable taking on, as they involve a high risk of future recurring service issues and necessary revisits.”
There was no phone call, no explanation, and no courtesy. When I called them after receiving the refund, they stopped answering the phone and only sent an email cancelling everything. This was extremely disappointing, especially for a £10,500 job where trust and communication are so important.
It is sad that after taking the deposit and giving installation dates, the company cancelled without any proper decency. It feels like they were trying to push me towards Chinese batteries instead of supporting Give Energy, which is a trusted British-made company.
My time was wasted, and the service was very poor. Please be aware before booking.
Many thanks,
Yogesh
