Appliance Repair King Joey Proper Paid $195 for a refrigerator repair. Still doesn't work and phone is disconnected. Plano Texas
I located Joey Proper through an advertisement he placed on the Dallas Craigslist site. When I phoned him he was very helpful and offered same day service in mid February 2008. My refrigerator worked for a couple of days and then stopped. My receipt from Joey Proper states the work is guaranteed so I gave him a call. He promised to call me back and didn't. I left a couple of messages for him--no call back. My husband spoke with Joey and he said he would need to get back with us. Since then his number (213-486-0190) has been disconnected. From seeing other complaints my belief is this guy is just a scam. I am out $195 and have a non-working refrigerator.

I have had a similar experience with Joey Proper. We have a subzero he claimed he fixed; he took our money; refrigerator doesn't work; and now we are unable to get him back to fix it.
We are working with a police detective who has contacted the attorney general. The attorney general is able to file a case on Joey Proper but they need more consumers to file with them on their experiences with him.
Please take a moment and go to the Texas Attorney General's website and file a complaint. We need your help to stop him.

Beware....he represents himself as an authorized repair person for SubZero and other makes. He has phone numbers from different area codes including 505, 469, 972,214. Use him at your own peril.

Please file a report with the Texas Attorney General. They will only take action if there are numerous complaints. I've started one and hope that there will be more. Thanks!
