I was lied to from Brandon Bing about our solar purchase.
When Brandon sold us the Solar System he said our electric bills would be extremely low and even perhaps the electric company would owe us money. He showed me a check from the electric company that paid one of All Americans Solar Companies customers $54 because he had sold so much electricity back to the electric company.
My electric bills are only about 44% less then what I was paying the electric company before buying the solar system from Brandon. I told him I wanted to be independent from the electric company and we aren't even close to what he promised us. On top of that, we were told we would get an $11,200 refund from the government. It turns out it is a tax credit and since we are on Social Security we don't owe any taxes and the tax credit is useless.
When we purchased the system from All American Solar Brandon said this would be a tax refund. We are screwed !
Preferred solution: Price reduction
Unfortunelty , we were sold solar equipment based oof off false information about savings at the time of (purchasing/financing)
Solar panels. We were sold on a product that has not performed in accordance to what the owners of All American Solar written information they provided to us.
Data from Oct 2015 to current clearly shows that the numbers are not even half of the “savings”. We pay more now with electric and finance of solar panels (package) than just the electric alone, before panels were installed, $200 plus more.
we are at the point that we will eventually stop all payments, televise the removal of the panels and more. From information I have gathered, there is enough to take legal action against All American Solar.

Preferred solution: it will be presented through legal representation
Not meeting my power consumption!
Had gotten several estimates on solar panels to meet my consumption. Very good article in Consumers report, on solar panels.
All American of Orange City installed a solar hot water heater, new pool pump, and solar electric panels. So far it has only meet about 50 to 60% of my consumption. They've been out several times and I've sent them several electric bills after the panels were installed, with no reply. If anyone decides on getting solar panels, get something in writing (guarantee) about meeting your consumption.
Not sure if there's a state or government agency that regulates these small solar panel companies.
Though to try to help the environment, spending this amount of money. These small solar companies should be held accountable.
ALL AMERICAN SOLAR OWNER BRANDON BING, ASST FLUNKY RICHARD PARDUE
Two seniors scared to death of another line of hurricanes and power blackouts with Deltona, Debary and Orange City in their path making us both prolific a writers being prolific enough, telling other prospective All American Solar customers to beware: (a) Beware of needing to call Sheriff's deputies for the purpose of throwing out two con men (a phony nice one and a real ***) coming to your house refusing to leave. All this after playing the AAS 'good cop-bad cop shakedown', threatening liens on your house, ruining your good name, and suing you and your wife saying that over a week's time they imported an entire industrial yard of finished goods all the way from another time zone just to equip your house with solar electricity (day but not night). (b) Beware of a breakfast nook shouting match (at you the disabled vet and your insulted wife) when you wakeup to the fact payment terms don't living up to your expectations, thus realizing Brandon Bing's and Richard Pardue's All American Solar installation agreements aren't worth the non-binding paper its fine print is printed on.
Preferred solution: Please go away
Don’t buy from this people
Please if you don’t want To have a hard time go with another’s company! I’m warning you
Not producing enough energy!
I been calling over and over! Electric bill 86 dollars 66.73.120.00 than what’s the use to have panel
Refused to pay commisions to employees
Constanly Barraged by owner, Cheated on pay, lied too often, harrassed I worked for All American Solar for 1 Year. Much of the time I was their top sales rep.
The company owes me over $5,000 in commissions in which I am employing a lawyer to recover. They are refusing to pay me the money they owe me after I quit. I quit when we were told to sign this employment agreement that was off the charts in favor of the company. Nobody in their right mind would sign this agreement.
My attorney said you would have to be an *** to sign this. It includes a very restrictive non-compete. One of the owners who manages the sales staff typically calls and insults the sales reps, yells and screams, He expects to sticker shock customers with a ridiculous price then tell them if they work through our pilot program (discounts through the county, state, utilities and federal programs) we can give them this much nicer price. The pilot program doesn't actually exist, Most smarter homeowners know this.
If we don't use this ridiculous lie about the pilot program it involves more yelling and being put down. He then insists you call him if you don't sell the owner so he can try to strong arm them into a sale which never works. If you don't phone close sale or no sale it involves more yelling and screaming. You spend your own money on gas and meals, there is no reimbursement.
You will sometimes have to drive 3 hours to an appointment. Sometimes those appointments are a no show after 3 hours of driving. You just drove six hours too and from and your out gas and six hours of your life and there is no pay. When you do make sales the owner cuts your commissions with new rules he makes up as he goes along.
Two of my customers called into the main office looking to expand their systems. The owner took the calls ran them himself and took the commission. Also if he helps you on a sale he takes part of your commission. He actually agreed to give me a half commission on one of his stolen sales when I threatened to quit.
I never received that payment from the stolen sale. We have 2 weekly staff meetings which are mandatory and your not paid for them. A violation of labor law. The owner who oversees sales tells you how great he is for one hour or more and how the entire sales team is terrible.
His mother actually sits in the meetings. It's weird at best. What he doesn't tell you is he runs all the call ins/lay down leads. The easiest leads to close the people who call us and say I want a system and those leads are run by the owner.
The harder stuff is sent to the staff. He then goes on a tangent about his inflated numbers (he includes credit turn downs and cancellations in his numbers) in these meetings and this pounds chest about how great he is. One meeting he even included two sales he stole from me when they called in. Again it is weird like he is trying to impress his mom who sits in every meeting.
All American Solar is the most dysfunctional company I have ever worked for in my 30 years of working. 2 sales meetings a week which typically are the owner telling you what a great sales person he is and the whole staff is terrible. They get reviews from owners right after installation so if the power production doesn't meet the promises made they already have a good review. They stress getting reviews right after installation before electric bills come in.
There is no work life balance. Between driving and running appointments you run a lot of 10 hour days then work Saturdays and Sundays sometimes. The owner actually gets mad about not running Saturday Appointments because his company should be the most important thing in your life. This after working 5 ten hour days during the week.
After interviewing with many solar companies All American Solar LLC's commission is the lowest in Central Florida. Every company I interviewed with pays more than All American Solar LLC. Our price point is generally higher than everybody else too. The owner regularly calls each sales rep and talks bad about all the other sales reps.
If you are working their and you think you must be doing great because he telling you how bad the other reps are..... Newsflash he calls the other reps and complains about you too.
The one positive is I was trained on equipment in the industry extremely well. This training has made me in the 10% of reps in the industry and now I am cashing in with another company.
All American Solar - Solar Panel Installation Review from Tampa, Florida
Beware, my initial experience left me impressed. The sales rep was very helpful and one of the owners, Brandon Bing, came to our home a couple times to reassure us of what was going to take place.
Our roof needed replacing and we provided then with a $5000 check as a deposit for a roofing company that closely worked with them. The solar panels were to be financed. Then our homeowners insurance agreed to cover the replacement. Meegram roofing returned the check to Brandon and later when I asked for the return of the 5000, he came up with excuses that the money was used by American solar when this was never agreed upon according to the contract.
For $5000, he walked away from a $30000 solar installation. Talk about greed. I spoke to the owner of the roofing company and he confirmed the money was returned to all American so it could be returned to us, but Brandon Gave me one story and the owners of the roofing company another.
Needless to say I decided not to go with either company. Deal with this company at your own risk, especially if they ask for a deposit.

I was also mislead about their products. After a year with a high efficient pool pump, solar hot water system, & solar electric panels it's only covering 55% of my load.
They informed me I need to purchased another 8 electric panels.
It should cover my electric usage. So after paying them $23,500, I need to pay them an additional $6,800 more for 8 more panels for their mistake!
