Our company, Harris Electrical, was reluctantly engaged by green.com.au to attend a job in Singleton to fix a battery system they had originally installed. From the very beginning, I was hesitant because it was obvious they didn’t have control of their contract work, but their representative Emma was very reassuring. She was polite, confident, and promised immediate payment if we just attended to assess and resolve the issue. On that good faith, we agreed.
Upon inspection, it was immediately clear the system had been installed with extremely poor workmanship. We documented the faults thoroughly, including photos, and prepared a full job service report. Instead of acknowledging responsibility, green.com.au argued with us about our findings. Regardless, we proceeded to rectify the issue, ensuring the system was safe and working properly — which is what the customer ultimately needed.
After the work was completed, payment was never made. Emma, who initially promised quick settlement, has since ghosted us completely. Attempts to escalate the matter to the company owner, Jonathan, have also failed — he refuses to answer calls, texts, or emails. Eventually, the matter was sent to debt collectors, and only then did we receive a response from green.com.au, denying payment altogether and falsely claiming that we had damaged the system. They’ve even stated they would rather go to court than pay what is fairly owed.
This behavior is dishonest, unethical, and unprofessional. It shows a complete lack of accountability for their own shoddy work, zero respect for contractors, and a willingness to lie rather than honor commitments. Based on our experience:
Their workmanship is substandard and potentially unsafe.
Their communication is misleading — promises made upfront are broken immediately after.
Their management is untrustworthy, hiding behind excuses rather than resolving issues.
They have no integrity when it comes to paying contractors for legitimate work.
⚠️ Do not engage green.com.au for installations, and certainly do not subcontract to them. They are bottom-feeding, dishonest operators who leave others to clean up their mess and then refuse to pay. We strongly advise other businesses and customers to stay far away from them.
