MODERATORS
I think the DNC-ignoring callers are likely scammers imitating the real installers trying to get card numbers. If you paid one, you'd lose your money and not get the system.
Yeah installers are massively busy at the moment, they're not going to be cold calling looking for work, they've got shitloads already
Scammers? Yes. Not part of the program? No.
Just like the Solar Panel Scheme, LED Scheme and Insulation Scheme before them, I am confident that there are opportunistic companies rorting the system with barely adequate product and unqualified labour.
Just like the serving politicians running the NDIS scam.
