Rolando BUENA PARK, California
We verbally enter a franchise agreement with Cuppy’s Coffee and More base in Florida to build a store in California by there builder who reside at the same address, Elite Manufacturing, LLC. The catch was, Elite will pay the franchise fee of $25,000 if we put the down payment of $37,900 to build the store, the following day, which we did. Cuppy’s Coffee and More never send a UFOC franchise agreement which is a clear violation of the FTC. The franchise was cancelled because we can’t find a lender to finance building the store.
When I asked for our down payment from Elite MFG representative, in which the contract clearly says, that down payment will be return to purchaser if we can’t get finance. Now there representative find a loophole in there own contract and stated that it didn’t say that we’ll return the down payment in full. That there VP of operation made a mistake by not putting the down payment in an escrow, so they can return the down payment in full. He’s blaming there Vice President of operations. READ ON
