Complaint narrative:
Hi, I am writing in regards to the Company Goodleap who teamed up with a fraudulent company XXXX XXXX XXXX to take advantage of consumers. We were sold solar panels in XXXX XXXX and Goodleap approved a loan for a substantial amount without having a loan application. We feel they falsified a loan application just to get us approved for equipment that did not work. We were lied to from both of these fraudulent companies, and after finally finding where the loan was thru I contacted them and told them I wanted a copy of the loan application and to see what help we could get since the faulty equipment the loan was for didn't even work and the promise that it would save me on my electric bill. They advised me I would need to pay $ XXXX by XX/XX/XXXX in order to keep my loan from increasing. Our current payment for Goodleap is XXXX $ and my electric bill is over {$400.00} so we are struggling to make ends meet due to paying almost {$1000.00} just in electric. I have contacted them several times without any follow up. Goodleap has been sent a letter from the Attorney General from XXXX different states asking to hold and defer the loans due to XXXX XXXX filing bankruptcy causing havoc for so many consumers.
