Telephone Sales and solar panels
I've just made a complaint to the Telephone Protection Service about a solar panel company. Telephone cold-calling people on the TPS list is illegal. I can't do anything about overseas companies, but I sure can complain about the UK ones.
That's the second solar panel company to phone me in a week.
I like solar power, I already have solar panels.
The usefulness of solar power in no way excuses people breaking the law in an attempt to drum up as much trade as possible before the level of subsidy falls.
If you want solar panels, do NOT let yourself be tricked by some of the con men out there. There are some that will grossly over-estimate the likely yield and savings. Go with one of the companies that fit free panels - you know exactly what you're getting with those - and they will only use your roof if it really is suitable as it's their money on the line, not yours.
This lot - Apple solar energy - fall into the 'lying bastards' category. Their web site claims "Domestic Electricity prices are rising, but by installing Apple Solar Energy Solar Panels you can generate as much Electricity as you require - becoming self-sufficient."
Self sufficient with solar? Whatever happened to night time?
