Several jobs including replacing spring in patio awning, tightening driver size awning, installing sirius radio, install flat screen tv in bedroom, installing kitchen faucet. Other work included "no charge for the fuel gauge" which is good since it still doesn't work, "fixing" the arm on our front door, ordering 3 bay latches.

Most of the work done was done satisfactorily although everything seemed to take longer than kelly expected. The "other work", well, the fuel gauge still doesn't work, the arm rivet on our front door having been hammered into oblivion needed replacement, and the 3 bay latches were never received by us.

"heart attack", "house burnt down", "no response", "promises not kept" and in this case, we never received our latches nor did we ever receive our refund. The work was done in november 2015. It's march 1st but i don't expect to receive either our money or our latches.

Unfortunately the lack of response after the work regarding the latches, deceit and repeat of excuse of heart attack, true or not, it sounds suspicious. On 12/6, he texted that sorry he had been out of town for a few days, no more response until 1/7/16 stating he was sorry that he had been in the hospital with a heart attack. Same day he said he had received the latches, but his "issues" happened 3 days after our job in mid-november. Apparently he uses the "guilt card" to create more delays

After that, my husband took over trying to communicate and get our latches or refund. After sending the shipping address to him several times, at some point, he said he sent the latches, priority mail, but could not come up with the tracking number and of course, we never saw the latches. His "wife" got involved in the convo, but the same stall, promises not kept and i hope it's not happening to many others.

I guess the taking payment for parts to be ordered and not installed or sent is just another revenue stream. I'm giving him a "fair" rating because most of the work he did has been satisfactory, but the run-around about the latches was not. This is my own opinion, not my husband's, although his text exchange with my husband was quite lively with colorful language.

So, once kelly reads this, i will probably get some scathing retort, i don't care. We will not ever call him again and we have already let our rv peeps and campgrounds in the area know of our experience. All in all we feel fortunately we only got cheated out of $150, not over $1,000 like each of the other people we read about.

Before I go in to detail about my ripoff by Kelly Pope, I paid him over $3,000.00 and his lack of doing requested repairs may have cost me over $8,000.00, I would like to know if anyone has taken him to small claims court and been reimbursed or if anyone has sued or taken him to court or charged him with any crimes. By not doing the requested service and repairs I paid him for he not only put my life but my wife and five year old daughters life's in danger. I would like to hear from anyone who has hired an attorney to deal with him or taken him to Small Claims Court. I will then post a detailed report of my entire incident with him. Contact me.

This man is a fraud. I payed him $500 up front to install and hook up subs in my truck and he said is would take about 2-3 to Finnish every thing. So I have him those 3 days then I followed up on this project... and he said he ran into some problems. So he asked for a couple more days with my automobile. Then I followed up two days later and he made no progress... so I asked him what going on and he got very upset and was threatening to throw all the stuff that he bought with the money I gave him in the bed of my truck and for me to come pick up my truck... and I told him I payed him to do a job and he needs to finish. So then I gave him 3 more days then followed up once again. But yet again no work done. So of course I confronted him about this problem.. and he lost it he threw all the stuff in the back of my truck and told me to come pick it up. So I did and I asked him for a refund. And then he said "I'm going to put you in a place where you do not want to be" and he meant I'm going to put you in the hospital if you don't leave me alone... I also ran a background check on this Kelly pope. He has 4 grand theft charges and a stalking charge. This is one bad business man. Never go to this man for business. And by the way it's been 3 months and still haven't got my money back.

On 12/20/2016 I hired Kelly Pope to do some bodywork on my Class A RV. He required a deposit of $960 to start work with the balance of $312 to be paid upon completion. Previously he had installed awnings for us and did a good job so we thought we would use him again. Then I looked up his reviews and became alarmed. We were nearby on Christmas Day so we drove by to check on his progress. We saw the slides were out, tv antennae was up & sewer hookup. None of the work called for any of that and I saw the door of RV open so I called over the fence to him . I asked him why slides were out and he responded with anger and profanity. He couldn't explain and said he was late and had to go. We were going to still have him do the job until the angry phone calls and threatening texts. We couldn't communicate. I apologized for stopping by on Christmas Day but he just couldn't get past it. We asked if we could get our RV . He said he was closed for the holidays and we could get it when he was ready. Then around 6 that night he called to say our coach was parked in the street and would be towed if we didn't come and get it now. There were plenty of bizarre, threatening and profane calls and texts. No work had been started, so I asked for a refund of my deposit. He said he was charging us storage and pick up fee and we were even. I've never had to deal with anyone like this before and hope to spare others the unfortunate experience of dealing with him. Hopefully he will use our $960 deposit to seek help for his anger. Lesson learned...always check reviews first.

RV scam artist

Oct 2 he worked on our RV at Jetty Park. We had a water leak took 3 hrs he said he fixed it but we still had water leaking. I pointed this out he said it will stop. He also stated we needed a surge guard or the motorhome could catch on fire. We had only had the motorhome for 1 month. I didn't know he scared me. We get ready to pay he only takes CASH only really . So we paid$ 255.00 for 3 hrs. 359.00 for surge guard. He was going to ship it.We got a receipt. Oct 3 water still leaking. He was busy. Oct 4 he comes. NOW it's something different. Except now we have no hot water we did before his last visit. He fixes it $250.00 no receipt book with him.Now they are giving us an Evacuation Notice to leave. He states again I will mail you the surge guard.We have hot water now leak not fixed. We have called texted him for the last 3 weeks. He his given all kinds of excuses. He cut his fingers off. His daughter is Maci Pope he says she is a big deal on instagram he said Busy with her. Called police they know him well. I did find out when he is charging cash not paying taxes we can report him. 1-800-352-9273. They are very interested in him . He is such a good scam artist . My husband and I know better , he is good. He got us for a lot. He knew we were on vacation.
