[...] There are a plethora of websites and blogs that share negative information about bad meals at fast food franchises, bad PR moves by individual franchisees, or class action lawsuits filed against franchise companies by franchisees – that may have not been disclosed to prospective franchise owners, early on in the sales process. (Because they didn’t have to be.) As a matter of fact, fellow franchise blogger Sean Kelly, has a post on his blog that has over 300 comments from some rather disgruntled franchisees of an almost defunct franchise coffee chain.

Guest & screwed franchisees…. you keep talking about Dale Nabor and yes he deserves to face criminal charges but don’t forget Robert “Morg” Morgan. Most of those bank disbursments happened under Morg’s watch. Morg was the main person pushing the banks to disburse before they were suppose to. They both need and hopefully will face criminal & fraud charges.

Latest Update…. The sky has fallen on Dale Nabor’s Dream Team in AL. Dale has finally gotten up enough nerve to meet with the employees that followed him up to Muscle Shoals, AL and told them he can NOT get the money to pay them. But he wanted to know who would continue to work for him for FREE. Has he lost his mind totally? He also told them if they would not stay and work free he did not want them to blog him. WTF????!!!!! He’s an arrogant sh it!! So… now there are NO employees at Cuppy’s/Elite/Medina! Dale is still trying to sell Elite contracts to Brian Hayes. But remember franchisees… Brian Hayes/SBT or whatever name they go by these days is overcharging you for buildout and equipment. Your best bet is to take whatever loss you have now and sue Morg/Dale/Medina/Fransynergy and try to recoup your deposit moneys. Cuppy’s is dead! Even if a franchisee let SBT continue to build them out, I would NOT call it Cuppy’s. Cuppy’s has an awful name and I don’t evenn think God himself can raise that dead franchise. Franchisee please listen up… you need to join together to get justice. There are more people out here willing to help you get that justice than you may think. Good luck to you zees and to the employees that followed Dale to AL and had work for 2 months without pay. I wish you all well.

From what you say, Nabors has been quite successful at getting money out of you and your fellow sheep.

Someone is the pea-brain, but it doesn’t sound like that someone is Dale Nabors.

Sean… how do you like this one? oohhhhhhhhh… I got one! If you take Dale Nabors brain out & put it on the edge of a razor blade, it would look like a pea rolling down a 4 lane highway.

Name calling and personal attacks aren’t helping to educate people about what’s going on with Cuppy’s Coffee, how this scheme works, etc. Additionally, you put yourself at legal risk by simply venting and name calling. All you are communicating is that somebody is mad at him. Can you be factual and specific about what is going on? Why is this fraud? What did these guys tell the banks or SBA to get funds disbursed, etc.?

Additionally, my understanding is that he was the head of telemarketing at the Dwyer Group. I don’t know if that’s true or not, but I can say that I’d rather have been bad at that job (Good morning, Mrs. Smith, this is Sean from Mr. Rooter. Do you have a couple of minutes to discuss your septic system?)
