    Current Alerts For This Business

    Out of Business:
    BBB doesn't have a current address for this business, all mail has been returned as undeliverable. Consumers state this company is still sending out solicitations regarding "2 free roundtrip airline tickets."
    Advertising Review:
    Tucson residents state they're receiving letters from the company which indicate they've qualified for an award of two airline tickets valued at $1,400. The letter claims that Patterson Bell, or one of its many aliases, has attempted to contact the consumer multiple times and if the consumer doesn't contact them by a specific date the airline tickets will be given to an alternate recipient. Consumers who spoke to BBB said they had no recollection of ever entering a sweepstakes or contest for the airline tickets.

    Consumers who've contacted the company are told that in order to qualify for the free tickets they have to attend a 90-minute presentation at Southwest Travel or any number of other similar agencies across the country. The airline tickets are redeemable for one year at a fee of $50 per ticket for flight taxes.

    Additional business information

    Additional Info:
    According to consumers the business is located in Tucson at 4811 E Grant Rd, STE 261, Tucson, AZ 85712. This address is also linked with a business called South West Travel. A separate BBB reliability report is available for South West Travel.

    The BBB contacted South West Travel to discuss their affiliation with Patterson Bell. The phone was answered by Hoffman Sims, who stated they are a third party booking agency for various travel clubs. BBB was unable to speak with a representative who could answer questions concerning the affiliation between Patterson Bell and South West Travel. Upon further investigation, BBB found a Hoffman Sims Website at www.hoffmansims.com., which appeared to be identical to the web site belonging to Patterson Bell. The Website for Patterson Bell was later changed and bears no physical resemblance to Hoffman Sims, but does list much of the same, and in some cases identical, information in certain sections of the site.

    In January 2010 BBB began receiving information from consumers indicating they've received similar letters from a company going by the name Sutton Perry and Richardson Blake. Letters from the businesses are identical. The Web site for Richardson Blake, www.richardsonblake.com, is identical to Hoffman Sims web site and the Web site previously used by Patterson Bell.
