Discuss Salesman Patter!!!! in the Solar PV Forum | Solar Panels Forum area at ElectriciansForums.net

I had a little chuckle tonight, I popped into Morrisons after work and on the way out caught the eye of a lady selling Solar PV and double glazing who asked if I had considered solar...
"I have it says I, thank you"
Oh she says, how is it doing?
So I had a quick chat about the size and output and how it had been miserable over the October to Feb period but was picking up nicely now thank you throwing out about 40Kwh a week at the moment in the Preston sunshine and how during the summer it had made a huge difference to my consumption off the Norweb Federation (just being polite really as she looked a bit miserable) when she threw in "Oh you have daylight only panels do you so you are not earning at night...."

I made my excuses and left at that point....

I'm not one of you solar guys (much as I'd like to be) but I'm afraid I'd have bitten into her for her lack of knowledge/conning people.
 
Worst ever.....from our old friends Ultra Energy and their love child Eco Home Renewables.....

"With us you get double the Feed In Tariff. The government pay you 15.44p. And we pay you 15.44p as well. Double the tariff"

Agree 100%.

I had it with Energy Saving Group from Redditch. The girl was stood on my drive telling me that I'd paid too much for the panels that I had installed on my own home (at cost), and that she could have got it done for me for nothing AND I'd keep the FIT. How? Grants.

Even when I explained that I ran my own installation firm and that I knew what I was talking about, she wouldn't have it.

There is a reason why the best salespeople are sociopaths.
 
I was tempted to "find out more" about the claims, but TBH I spend all day arguing with angry young blokes and really wasnt in the mood to get into another one with a middle aged woman and I felt sorry for her really she looked proper fed up.
