The NEW Cuppy’s Coffee has newly redesigned website that reflects some interesting changes:
Cuppy’s Coffee: Established in 2008
The new ABOUT US text has some startling revelations, including the fact that Cuppy’s Coffee was established in 2008. According to the new website: "Welcome to Cuppy’s Coffee & More, where we pride ourselves on being fast, fresh and FUN! Established in 2008, Cuppy’s Coffee is a young coffee and smoothie franchise on the go…"
We’re Franchising. We’re Not Franchising.
According to the new home page, under the heading "Join the Cuppy’s Family": "We invite you to talk with a franchise recruiter and find out why we are the fastest growing coffee and smoothie franchise in the United States."
According to the new "Franchising" page: "We sincerely appreciate your interest in our business. We know that choosing the right franchise to fit your needs can be overwhelming. Cuppy’s Coffee is not currently accepting franchise applications, nor are we soliciting franchise sales. You may still submit your contact information if you choose to be contacted when franchise opportunites [sic] become available. Please direct all inquiries to info@cuppys.com."
Location List Disabled
The newly redesigned website has the location list disabled so that you can search locations by zip code, but no longer view a list of the ever-changing list of locations. The employment listings include stores that have gone on to that great pad site in the sky, like Copperas Cove, TX.

HAHA... Cuppy's changed the "about us" section and now says it was established in 2006.
Ex-Employees:
It is now the 26th and I know that I have yet to receive my final check and make the assumption that no one else has either. Below is a list of contact information and steps for filing the necessary complaints (If you haven’t already done so):
1) Contact the US Department of Labor (www.dol.gov) and file a complaint. The phone number is (866) 4-USWAGE.
2) Once you have made contact with them and advised our situation they are going to provide you with contact information to the local office that is closest to you. (Make sure that you notate the date and time that you contact them. If more than 3 business days passes after leaving a message for your local office, contact the US Department of Labor once again and they will directly forward your complaint information to the nearest office.) The Jacksonville office is the one that is closest to us. Their contact info is as follows:
Jacksonville Area:
USDOL, Wage and Hour Division
ESA Wage & Hour Division
Charles E. Bennett Federal Building
400 West Bay Street, Room 956, Box 017
Jacksonville, Florida 32202
(904) 359-9292
(904) 359-9279 (Fax Number)
3) Because we have not been paid it is assumable that Dale Nabors did not take it upon himself to pay the government on the money that we are owed either. You can contact the IRS Tax Fraud Unit at (800) 829-0433. They will direct you to either send a letter to them or complete and mail IRS Form 3949A. Below is a link to the IRS Form 3949A. I have completed this form and have included the letter that was received from ACC in regards to the termination of their relationship with Medina as well as the emails that Ms. Hiller sent out to us. The address to mail the form to is:
Internal Revenue Service
Fresno, California 93888
http://www.irs.gov/pub/irs-pdf/f3949a.pdf
Hopefully, this will give Dale Nabors more of a reason to pay us what we have earned outside of the fact that we are rightfully due the money.
