RE: Coffee Roasters Direct, World Bean Café, Peel Inc. Urban Coffee Direct, Seattle Coffee Direct and Ultimate Beans.

All 6 of these companies are interrelated and complete unauthorized billings, unauthorized shipments, deceptive and fraudulent business practices, and will not issue refunds even if the defective merchandise is returned pre paid.

Eric Flippo at 1-847-424-0954 Extension 13 or FAX at 1-847-424-0986 is with Ultimate Beans and Brian Dale is with Peel, Inc. at the same address in Evanston, Illinois.

If you, such as myself, think you have been defrauded, the Better Business Bureau is good but has to legal authority. They can only request arbitration which is generally not binding on companies such as this.

Your next step needs to be contacting The Internet Crime Complaint Center at www.ic3.gov. This is a collaborative effort with the FBI, the National White Collar Crime Center, and the Bureau of Justice Assistance.  
If enough of us take action maybe these people will be punished and their actions terminated. If nothing less we will cost them money in order to answer all the inquires from this organization

    Your first step should be to contact your bank immediately to dispute the charges as fraudulent and close your account to prevent additional fraud.

    Your bank can reverse unauthorized charges in response to your dispute up to 60 days from the statement date of the statement showing the disputed charges, under FCBA (for credit cards) or FRB Reg. E (for EFT such as debit card or ACH charges).  Follow up with a written dispute or fraud affidavit in support of your dispute, to preserve your FCBA or FRB Reg. E dispute rights.

    Prompt bank disputes are the most direct path to getting your money back from companies making fraudulent charges.  Show your bank the BBB report, which outlines the pattern of consumer complaints of making unauthorized charges and shipments.

    I called their call center and they were helpful and gave me a  refund.  888-217-2233.  I would try that first.

    Terrible customer service. Unresponsive. Multiple company names. Total scam. The President of this company is Brian Dale. The number is 847-424-0954. All of his companies should be put out of business.
