UNITHOSTING.NET, Inc.
5643 Wellesley St.
Los Angeles, CA 90189
987613454
Obviously not the right phone number. The area codes for Los Angeles
are 213 / 310 / 323 / 626 / 818 and Calabasas, a suburb of Los
Angeles, in 818. I did a search using variations of the area codes
and the phone number listed and came up empty.
5643 Wellesley St. Los Angeles, CA 90189 is not a valid address
according the United States Post Office. When I put the address in
Google, it comes up with an alternative:
5643 Wellesley Drive
Calabasas, CA 91302
If you Google map the location, the satellite image shows a
residential area, however, the United States Post Office says this is
an invalid address as well.
I looked up both addresses in my Accurint database and neither address
comes up. Nothing shows up for Wellesley Street in LA or Wellesley
Drive in Calabasas. I did a general search for Wellesley Avenue in
Los Angeles and the house number that came up were way out of range.
False address, phone number, etc?..very odd ? or perhaps not.

A search of the California Secretary of State Business Portal shows no
business name registered as Unithosting.net, Inc., Unit Hosting, or
any other variation. I also did a search under UNIT and came up with
many but nothing that would fit our ghost. Same with HOSTING.
I suggest, since they seem to be ?in hiding?, that you follow their
policy stated on their website:
?This Agreement shall be governed in all respects by California law
without regard to the conflict of law provisions thereof. Both parties
submit to personal jurisdiction in California. Any controversy or
claim arising out of, relating to or in connection with this
Agreement, or the breach thereof, shall be subject to arbitration
administered by the American Arbitration Association ("AAA") in
accordance with its then existing Commercial Arbitration Rules
(collectively, the "AAA Rules") and judgment upon the award rendered
by the arbitrator may be entered in any court having jurisdiction
thereof. The place of arbitration shall be Los Angeles, California, or
any other place selected by mutual agreement of the parties. An award
rendered in connection with an arbitration pursuant to this Section
shall be final and binding upon the parties and the parties agree and
consent that the arbitral award shall be conclusive proof of the
validity of the determinations of the arbitrations set forth in the
award, and any judgment upon such an award may be entered and enforced
in any court of competent jurisdiction. The parties agree that the
award of the arbitral tribunal will be the sole and exclusive remedy
between them regarding any and all claims and counterclaims between
them with respect to the subject matter of the arbitrated dispute. The
parties hereby waive all in personam jurisdictional defenses in
connection with any arbitration hereunder or the enforcement of an
order or award rendered pursuant thereto. In any legal action, the
prevailing party will be entitled to recover all legal expenses
incurred in connection with the action, including but not limited to

Agreement.?

Additionally, they state that ?Any request for cancellation must be
received via the web, regular mail or fax and you will receive a
confirmation upon the cancellation of your account. Cancellations
over the telephone and informal email are not accepted.?
Sounds fishy to me!
I am afraid you may be out of luck but I will keep digging :)
