My damages against Ryan Thompson dba Pro Solar Hawaii keep adding up

This past week I have added further to my damages against Ryan Thompson dba Pro Solar Hawaii. Which, I might add, are starting to add up. So I might need to ask for more than the $1,000,000 I am asking for. 

Before I go on about my damages, let me update the going one of the active cases I have against Ryan Thompson dba Pro Solar Hawaii. 

Unfortunately, nothing is happening on this front. Since the significant RICO complaint I filed was found against him, I can only assume it exacts considerable damage to his case. At this moment were all sitting around waiting to see what he could possibly try and claim to show he did not rip me off.00

Anyway, let's get back to the damages part of this post.

Over the past week, the high winds and hefty rain knocked out the power for 24+ hours in my area. Leaving me without power from HELCO. My system was subject to sunlight and, although not generating as much electricity as if the panels had been installed as per the county-approved plan. They still were making electricity.

See Video Above!

Had the inverter been installed as I ordered when installed by Ryan Thompson dba Pro Solar Hawaii I would have the power outlet and Bluetooth connection. I would have at least enough power during daylight hours to run my satellite internet modem, WiFI router, and or charge phones and laptops.

Ryan Thompson, dba Pro Solar Hawaii, knew that I wanted this model power inverter for the power outlet and Bluetooth connection. Which was made clear to me was no problem. This is evident because Ryan Thompson, dba Pro Solar Hawaii has pointed out that this was not part of the system he tried to sell me repeatedly.

Yet, I do not have what I made clear I wanted when I bought the system. So, for the past 5 years plus, the power has gone out. I don't have the design I paid for to use for its intended purpose; I am and have been adding to the provable damages I receive.

Here is a thought. In this gigantic world, world wide web, internet or whatever. Some business students are writing a thesis on the total lack of any responsibility Ryan Thompson dba Pro Solar Hawaii has taken to resolve this matter with me. 

I can almost see the thesis witting about how It does not make good business sense to continue spending money on this only as a matter of personal pride. 

Going into great detail about how any "reasonable man." would see that by not at a minimum honestly trying to resolve this amicably given the risks of significant punitive damages in the end. 

In the final paragraph of this hypothetical thesis, I guess it"ll say that Ryan Thompson, dba Pro Solar Hawaii has made horrible mistakes dealing with this customer. Mistakes that no really innocent business would continue to make.

Unless, of course, they know they are wrong and really are just trying to have the inevitable delayed as long as possible. If so, isn't that worthy of extensive punitive damages?

I admit Ryan Thompson dba Pro Solar Hawaii taught me something

 As I have reviewed the last month since my last post, I admit Ryan Thompson dba Pro Solar Hawaii taught me something. Yes, there are the Hawaii Civil Legal workings, free speech legalities, and how bad a solar contractor I find Ryan Thompson is. But let us just focus on the time period of the past month. All those things listed are true and things I have learned. But, it's important to focus.

I admit Ryan Thompson, dba Pro Solar Hawaii taught me something. This is something that I have learned I never really fully appreciated. You read or hear about people's blogs having a response that changes lives. 1 person reads a blog then is inspired to get involved and help another. It's a magical thing and a feel-good story for all.

Before I started this blog, I assumed that nobody with past issues themself with Ryan would read it. I just never even considered it would appear in the search engines or directories. It was just a diary to document the legal abuse I feel I am subject to. As I do in almost every post, I wanted to show just a fraction of my reason for being upset. For example, how can anyone dispute my post': Pro Solar Hawaii does not know how to read an architect plan? I think of how Ryan Thompson dba Pro Solar Hawaii did not follow an architect's county-approved plan when installing my solar system? It was the plan filed for the permit.

The bottom line is I admit Ryan Thompson, dba Pro Solar Hawaii taught me something. He has taught me the power of the blog. I could never have possibly conceived that so many people who had issues with Ryan Thompson would read my blog and reach out to me. Then, in an even bigger shock, people who had issues with Ryan Thompson would go directly to my attorney with their offers to get involved.

I am really gobsmacked that a poorly written nothing of a blog can generate so many readers. It is not like it's an open post on Facebook, Twitter, Instagram with millions of people scrolling through. For anyone to find this blog, they really had to work for it. No joke! 

Admittedly the story in the local paper By JOHN BURNETT Hawaii Tribune-Herald | Thursday, April 19, 2018, Solar contractor sues former customer to remove blog generated many people seeking out my blog. So, I am guessing this is mostly how so many people that had issues with Ryan Thompson would know to seek out this blog at all.

I cannot say how many of the readers of this blog are people looking for a Pro Solar Hawaii Review. If you are one of them. Please do not use this blog as your only reason for doing business with Ryan Thompson, dba Pro Solar Hawaii. There is plenty of other bad things you can see people that have dealt with Ryan Thompson, dba Pro Solar Hawaii have said or filed complaints about him, it, or them. I know I am suing him as a sole propitiator or something like that.

I admit Ryan Thompson dba Pro Solar Hawaii taught me something more then just the power of a blog to capture a reader's interest. However, maintaining this blog has taught me more on a personal level. Maybe a better way to explain this is to say maintaining this blog has improved me in the following ways:

• I am a better writer. - If you need proof. See where this started and read to now. You can't miss the improvement.
• Not to be fearful of my bad grammar, writing style. - It's hard to put all this out there and have people read it. If I was a better person, I'd have hired a ghostwriter..haha
• It is better to stand for what you believe in than to bow down out of fear.- It is better to fight for your truth even if you lose. Not fighting back leads to a lot of not standing up for your truth.
• The written word is power! - I never really believed this. The response (as I have repeatedly posted about it) has been incredible! I could have imagined nothing like it in my wildest dreams.
• The truth is absolute. - Absolutely it is.
• Ryan Thompson, dba Pro Solar Hawaii loves this blog. - I don't know that last statement is true. But, one could assume so because he does not accept the substantial mountain of credible evidence against him that gets larger daily and settle this case before I am awarded $1,000,000 by a jury.

There is a lot more I could have added to the above list, but this post is starting to become very long. I know you must think it is hard for me to admit Ryan Thompson dba Pro Solar Hawaii taught me something. It is not at all. Admitting this just shows my growth as a person.

This is not so much a Pro Solar Hawaii Review post as it is a  post to give credit where credit is due. It is important to show the positive side of even the darkest person. This post was an attempt to do just that. So, freely, openly, and without remorse, I admit Ryan Thompson dba Pro Solar Hawaii taught me something.

Pro Solar Hawaii the FTC and the CRFA of 2016

 It has been suggested that now that I have received the letter from the Hawaii Regulated Complaints office, I should file a complaint with the FTC about Ryan Thompson dba Pro Solar Hawaii has filed a lawsuit for my online reviews of the horrible service I received from him. I might point out Ryan Thompson, dba Pro Solar Hawaii did not defend himself in any kind of a hearing to the RICO charges; he/just paid the fine. Yet, spends thousands of dollars to sue me for leaving reviews of him. Odd, no?

But, let us not stray off course. In 2016  due to the enormous number of lawsuits in the court systems, congress was forced to pass The Consumer Review Fairness Act (CRFA) This act is to protect people’s ability to share their honest opinions about a business’s products, services, or conduct, in any forum, including social media.

The law, as written, protects most honest consumer assessments, including online reviews, social media posts, upload photos/videos, etc. But, of wonder, it's not just product reviews it covers. It also applies to consumer evaluations of a company’s customer service. Is this not ultimately what this blog is?

Now, that last paragraph is important. Ryan Thompson, dba Pro Solar Hawaii has often said that my posting reviews of the well-proven horrible service I received from him violates our contract. A contract that it appears even RICO says is not a valid contract. See, Ryan Thompson, dba Pro Solar Hawaii says that an arbitration clause prevented me from posting my reviews and issues. I swear that's not an exaggeration.  

On July 5th, 2018, Ryan Thompson dba Pro Solar Hawaii through his attorney, filed in the Circuit Court of the third district in the state and county of Hawaii an amended complaint about "breach of contract." In "Count 1 - Breach Of Contract," paragraph 12 says my posting reviews is a violation of the contract. (see below)

This, as I have been informed, turns out to violate the CRFA. I've visited the FTC website, and I gotta tell ya, it looks clear to me to be a violation! I am no lawyer and have no idea if I understand it correctly. One has to ask:  Now, why would a lawyer admit in a court filing that his client has breached the CRFA? The FTC website is obvious.

"To make sure your company is complying with the Consumer Review Fairness Act:

• Review your form contracts, including online terms and conditions; and
• Remove any provision that restricts people from sharing their honest reviews, penalizes those who do, or claims copyright over peoples’ reviews (even if you’ve never tried to enforce it or have no intention of enforcing it)."

I have not, as of posting, spoken to my attorney about this. I am going to. If this is a violation of the CRFA, it is my duty as an American to inform the FTC of this intimidation. I've really got nothing to lose. I have the evidence of the violation in a paper filed in the court by Ryan Thompson, dba Pro Solar Hawaii legal representative.

At this point, I have no reason not to file with the FTC about this. I could be wrong. In which case, nothing happens. But if I am correct, "The law specifies that a violation of the CRFA will be treated the same as violating an FTC rule defining an unfair or deceptive act or practice. This means that your company could be subject to financial penalties, as well as a federal court order." If I were Ryan Thompson, dba Pro Solar Hawaii my action would concern me in the penalties would scare the hell outta me.

Bad Hawaii Solar Contractor

 Hopefully, nobody ever gets a bad Hawaii solar contractor. If by chance you do, and you live in the state of Hawaii, there is always The Regulated Industries Complaints Office.

If you get a bad Hawaii solar contractor and think what they did to you was not appropriate for a Hawaii solar contractor you can and should file a complaint with R.I.C.O. I am not going to lie to you and give you false hope. It will take years. This is not an instant gratification thing. What you complain about might not even be considered by R.I.C.O. to be of reason to pursue it further. To which I say "SO WHAT". It was and is to me to be more important to report a bad Hawaii solar contractor. What if what was done to you was/is a serious violation? As a consumer, you should stand up for yourself.

If you have been following my diary/blog you know I had what I consider to be a bad Hawaii Solar Contractor that many years ago (2015) I filed a complaint with R.I.C.O. about my issues with Ryan Thompson dba Pro Solar Hawaii. Yes, it really was all the way back in 2015. It has resolved in my favor.

See for yourself:

What is new with the Ryan Thompson d.b.a. Pro Solar Hawaii case?

If I were considering using Ryan Thompson dba Pro Solar Hawaii at this point, I would definitely hold off on hiring them as they may not be in business when RICO gets done or, that they may not even be able to stay open after I win my case.

So, what is new with the Ryan Thompson d.b.a. Pro Solar Hawaii case? Not much really.  I have no idea why, but the number of people reading this blog has reached new levels over the past weeks.  The most popular post being "Pro Solar Hawaii does not know how to read an architect plan I think" and "A journal of dealing with Pro Solar Hawaii from a ripped off customer" The sudden spike in readers is clearly a good thing.

What else is new? My complaint to RICO is moving along. I understand they are getting ready to put my complaint in front of a council. Has taken 5 years but its all good. I am confident that Ryan Thompson d.b.a. Pro Solar Hawaii is not going to like the outcome of this. I feel good that there is some agreement with me that Ryan Thompson d.b.a. Pro Solar Hawaii did not do things as they should be done.

Back in Feb. there was a hearing on a Better Business Bureau of Hawaii motion to be removed from the case. I found it interesting that the actual attorney that filed the motion was not the attorney representing the BBB in court. I honestly didn't know it could be done this way. I really thought the attorney that signed the motion had to appear in court.

The plaintiff Ryan Thompson was not in court. It was only a hearing on a motion. Besides, he's only the one to bring the lawsuit. That is why he is the plaintiff. It's not important really. <~ sarcasm

I guess one could assume he couldn't make it to court because he could not afford the money for petrol to drive over. I dunno. I do know Ryan was not in court, but for his lawyer. who oddly had no position in the matter. Really? You have no position to weather you have to sue the BBB as well as me? That seems odd.

I would have to be tied up to keep me away. Lol I'm in it to win it. Besides, if you were paying for someone to argue your position for you, don't ya wanna see what you are getting first hand?  Maybe that's just me?

The Better Business Bureau of Hawaii's position was that they were not sued correctly. I don't understand the legal argument or law behind their position.

I, through my lawyer, filed an objection to the BBB's motion.  I believe that they should not be removed because it is their website Ryan Thompson dba Pro Solar Hawaii says he lost a contract because of my complaint published for all to read.

I did file a complaint to the BBB.  That complaint was published on the BBB website along with 2 other complaints.  I have no control over what the BBB published to their website.

The judge seemed to agree with my position in the matter. He denied the BBB motion.

There is no question now that the BBB and I are both being sued by Ryan Thompson dba Pro Solar Hawaii. I am certainly open to working with the Better Business Bureau of Hawaii against Pro Solar Hawaii's lawsuit.

I have a very strong feeling at this point that Ryan Thompson dba Pro Solar Hawaii knows full well they are going to lose their case. I have also provided evidence to him that will prove my lawsuit against him is a slam dunk win for me. 

If I were considering using Ryan Thompson dba Pro Solar Hawaii at this point, I would definitely hold off on hiring them as they may not even have a contractor's license when RICO gets done or, that they may not even be able to stay open after I win my case. Better safe than sorry.

Ryan Thompson dba Pro Solar Hawaii vs. Me & Better Business Bureau of Hawaii soap opera

I am back with another update on the Ryan Thompson dba Pro Solar Hawaii vs. Me & Better Business Bureau of Hawaii Me vs. Ryan Thompson dba Pro Solar Hawaii soap opera. I do ask to be forgiven for not keeping this blog more up to date.

My last post was "Pro Solar Hawaii Gets Sued By Customer For Libel Per Se". In my last post, I gave you all a glimpse, no. It was a complete clearly visible case of the libel that anyone with a 1st-grade education can see was done with clear malice and intent to cause me personally extreme harm. Unlike Pro Solar Hawaii's case against me, I show clear, unmistakable evidence of Ryan Thompson's guilt. Here is what I posted to Yelp that Ryan felt was so bad that he had to libel me in such an extremely vile manner.

Please feel free to go read my last post. I'll wait for you to get back.

Now for this post, I want you all to see exactly what is Ryan's response to my counter lawsuit. It is all posted below:

His response to my claim would be funny if it were not so sad. All kidding aside, Ryan Thompson has to be the worst businessman in the state of Hawaii. I guess there could be worse a businessman in Hawaii, I don't know. He has to know at this point that he is just running himself outta business. But, he still tries to be right. Really sad.

I have been asked about the BBB (Better Business Bureau) response to being sued as well by Ryan Thompson dba Pro Solar Hawaii. Well, all I can say is that they want to be dismissed from the case for basically the exact same reasons I did. I'm going to out on a limb and say that the BBB ain't too happy about it.

I have had confirmation that Ryan Thompson is being sued by someone else as well. This Ryan Thompson seems to be good at pissing people off for whatever reason. It's a really small island, word gets around pretty fast.

So, Ryan Thompson is now pissing off his neighbors here on the Big Island? If you are a neighbor of Ryan Thompson, I would really be interested in reading what he is doing to upset you all. Email me and tell me about it. One would think when your life is going down the crapper, you at least don't piss off your neighbors. I mean, HELLO!

More in the next post. Happy New year. Except for Ryan Thompson. I sure it will be, and hope it is, his worst year yet. lol

Have you been treated badly by Ryan Thompson d.b.a Pro Solar Hawaii?

Have you been treated badly by Ryan Thompson d.b.a Pro Solar Hawaii? I would definitely appreciate hearing your story about it.

I do have a strong suspicion that Ryan Thompson d.b.a Pro Solar Hawaii has other issues than mine going through the courts. I am not 100% sure. I only have a sinking suspicion. This feeling in my gut, if you will. After the way Ryan Thompson d.b.a Pro Solar Hawaii treated me, I'm guessing it's a safe bet there are others out there. I don't know, it could be a TRO (temporary restraining order), A legal case of you suing them or vice versa, a relationship has gone sour, Maybe it's just the way you were treated when they installed a solar system. If you have had unpleasant dealings with them I wanna know about. Heck, maybe we can take my case as a Class Action... My case? Ahhhh, yeah. I will be posting the details shortly in a new post. I am thinking to call it "Pro Solar Hawaii just got their ass handed to them". Stay tuned!

Hit me up and let me know if you have been treated badly by Ryan Thompson d.b.a Pro Solar Hawaii?
