BDS Solar

BDS Solar install solar system in my house recently. This company is a fraud. I have extremely bad experience with them. They installed after market or used inverter in my house. The owner of the company name Ken Samson is a thief. He stole our LADWP incentive money about $3000 with out telling me. He installed solar panels in my patio even though I told him not to install there. The patio was built with out permit. I told him but he installed the panels on it any way. As a result the patio had to dismantle. I am putting this post because I want no one became victim of this thief guy. At first he will act like he is a nice guy but he is very greedy will steal from you any way he can. Please be aware of him.

Consultant payment

Here is an email I received from this business, to give you an idea of the lack of professionalism I was dealing with here: 'I'm sorry I'm paying only for a completed project I don't know why I would use you for something that we can utilize at all thank you for trying but this is Anna completed job basis your problems are not mine getting this resolved thank you' I was hired to migrate a word document into an excel document to include links to certain sections. Per their vague instructions from the beginning, this task was completed after 3 drafts. I then received a brief email stating it was not what they were looking for and to stop the project. It was never suggested I get paid, not even for the effort it took to unprotect the excel document after BDS did not provide a password that worked to enable editing of the excel document.

Ken Sampson

We purchased a system that was supposed to fully support our home off the grid nearly $60,000 dollars and the system will not support the AC unit which was purchased with the home, and the system was supossed to be built for our home. Ken has now sent additional cost for $10,000 and will not fix the system. Our home has been sitting there for over a year the intial install dates were last thanksgiving but wasn't installed until May. Now it's just sitting there.
