WOW! FANTASTIC!
WOW! Just where do we begin?
With Steve Marriott who is simply FIRST CLASS at explaining, to two old wrinklies who had no real prior knowledge of what exactly we needed of an appropriate system to suit our home and circumstances, with clarity, patience and expertise. At no time did my husband and I feel rushed or pressurised into making any decisions which in this day and age is a rare occurence and very much appreciated. Steve's attention to detail we consider second to none.
Once our decision was made to go ahead, the Office Team of Alex, Jordan and Nicola kept us informed throughout and explanations to our many reflective questions handled in a timely, reassuring and professional manner. Nothing was ever too much trouble and we felt extremely valued. Again very much appreciated.
Now on to the install. All the scaffolders were extremely friendly, respectful and courteous, arriving on time and then working in horrendous conditions to complete their install in such a tidy fashion. Next up we had A.J., Joe and the team arrive to place the solar panels on to our slate roof with internal exposed beams. Again, care, attention to detail and professionalism were the names of the day and we were absoltely thrilled with the quality of install of the nineteen solar panels over two roofs of our home. The panels themselves fit seamlessly and are so discreet with no silver edges breaking up the roof line. Absolutely fabulous - far better than we ever imagined aesthetically.
And finally on to the wonderful electricians. Only two companies had been able to quote for the three phase meter at our now residential property, so the electrics were not straightforward. The delightful Sully, Louie and Billy who worked tirelessly again in horrendous conditions to link us up and install our nine batteries. Well into the evening all of the concerns my husband and I as 70 year olds, shared regarding the technical implications and monitoring disappeared when Sully and Louie patiently installed our apps for us, offered advice and clearly explained each and every detail with genuine customer care and empathy. Thank you so very much.
When a slight glitch occurred in operations Sully even came out to us on a Sunday morning to diagnose the issue. What more could you ever ask for? Finally, Callum visited all the way from Cornwall to Leicestershire to run a software update and all batteries were equalised and up and running.
We cannot praise Spark Solar enough and would highly recommend this company to anyone considering solar panels. The communication, attention to detail, craftsmanship, the care and pride in the work they offer a customer is ABSOLUTELY TOPS.
Thank you all very much indeed.

Terrible SCAM company won’t take no for an answer. Constantly ringing asking for someone who does not exist in our lives. Very rude staff and AI system. Just another company out to make money through hard sales and if they don’t get their own way they get abusive and swear at you.
They also seem to think it’s funny when you try speaking to a manager to report abusive harassment and hang up on you.
A very sad pathetic group of Scammers who can’t do a real job so they prey on the vulnerable.

Highly recommend
Overall my experience has been excellent!
From enquiring about getting a quote to now the system being installed has taken about 3 weeks.
Laurence who came to do the initial assessment and quote was very knowledgable and friendly. We weren't 100% committed to getting solar panels, but the information pack provided along with Laurence's answers to our questions convinced us it was the right decision to go ahead.
The guys fitting the system were efficient and got the system up and running super quickly which I was impressed by, as I was warned they may need to come back a second day to do their checks (because of it being winter and limited daylight hours).
I am leaving a 5 star review however, I was disappointed by the team doing the scaffolding as they were meant to arrive on Friday, and my partner had taken the day to be in for them. Unfortunately, after waiting most of the day and not receiving any notification from them that they were running late or unable to attend, I eventually rang up Spark customer care as the sun was starting to set, and only after them chasing up with the contractor did I get told they were delayed and unlikely to attend and would be here first thing Monday (installation day) before the installers. Monday arrived and the installers got here at 8am, but were sat doing not very much because the scaffolding guys didn't arrive until 10am.
Thid adds to why I am incredibly impressed by the installers considering they had the delay and also having to work in fairly miserable weather, and yet they still managed to get everything fitted and working before sundown.
I couldn't recommend Spark enough as everyone has been very friendly and shown great skill and expertise.

Not Spark's fault but setting up SEG is very difficult. The terms are unfamiliar, the energy company is no real help, the smart meter displays are quite different from what the energy company say. Take into account if considering a panel/battery system. A lot of background knowledge and computer skills needed.

Poor customer service, no means no.
Incredibly persistent, rude, ask invasive questions, will not leave you alone when you say you are no longer interested.

I’m absolutely delighted with the whole experience. The installers were polite, professional, and worked efficiently from start to finish. They explained everything clearly and left the place spotless. The panels are up and running perfectly, and I couldn’t be happier with the result. Highly recommend this team!

Positive from the start and right through
Right from the start the process and interaction with Spark was very positive from initial contact after I’d clicked on a link to the sales visit with Mark then a very swift turnaround a little over two weeks and we were down to be installed on November 14th!
The poor installation guys who turned up on probably the coldest wettest (Fri)day in the last six-eight months and just cracked on Billy, AJ, Sully and Louie! All in pretty good humour as well
Unfortunately due to the subcontracted scaffolders being delayed they weren’t able to finish the install on the day but arranged to come back after the weekend, sadly unable to get back on the Monday, due to the next instal taking longer than expected but did get out to me on a rapidly darkening Tuesday afternoon and managed to finish it off. Sully then patiently took me through the app when I’m sure he’d much rather have been sat in a warm van on his way home!
So overall despite the niggle of the delays the job itself was done very well and sometimes things happen it’s how you deal with them that matters and this team did you proud

Very approachable and honest sales team
I contacted the Spark sales team today and spoke with Adam Charles with an initial enquiry about a solar package for my house. I wanted to bottom out a few things with him before we got too far into making any arrangemements for a visit and he was very open and helpful in doing this. Due to his obvious knowledge and diligent questions back to me he quickly established that at this point in time, solar panels would not help me make any savings particularly as a long term project given how relatively low my current energy costs are. To be honest I was impressed with his honesty and it made such a change to speak to someone with integrity these days! My source of energy is reliant on a form of solid fuel that although will never run out it may well find itself outlawed in the next few years and I will have to consider other sources. At that point and due to the service I received today Spark will almost certainly be first on my list to call again. So a valued phone call that today might not have won Spark my custom may well do so in the future and I hope Adam is still around to talk to then. The company gets a thumbs up from me so far!

Brilliant service from start to finish. Kept informed all the way. The workmanship was excellent; everybody was polite and friendly, with nothing being too much bother. Can't wait to reap the benefits in the coming months.
Would highly recommend SPARK

The sales pitch was excellent and we paid the £3000+ deposit, but on reflection we found the price too high for our budget.
We aksked for the deposit to be returned, but are still waiting, it sits in our account waiting to be released by Spark. Not a real issue except I cancelled the agreement on 3 November and we are still waiting for our funds to be repayed. Come on Spark accounts, return our deposit, please.
It is 12 Nov and the deposit still has not been returned to my account, and sits there pending!!!
Sadly, Spark accept payment on the same day, but take over 10 days to return deposits, a common method to invest clients funds for a week or more.
Will i get interest on my payment???
