A couple who were issued with court proceedings after they tried to cancel a contract with a solar panel company claim the product and service they received was not up to the standard they expected.

Sean and Maria O’Donovan paid a deposit of €3,600 to The Energy Centre in Duleek, Co Meath, for the installation of 10 solar panels at their home in Ballincollig, Co Cork.
