Sonic using Universal Fidelity to collect

Has anyone who had to deal with people for Sonic. I have sent Sonic every letter I know of and they all come backundeliverable. Does anyone know if this agency is legite ot is it part of Sonic?

Universal Fidelity
P.O. Box 19537
Irvine, CA 92623
Phone #: (949) 852-8900

That's the contact info I found for Universal Fidelity. They are a collection agency, but they've gotten pretty mixed reviews in the forums. And Sonic has never been easy to deal with. Do you know if your debt has been sold to them yet or if Sonic still holds it?

The contact info I have in in Houston, Texas. I am going to ask them to validate. Or do you have any other suggestions?

In Houston? I live in Houston- tell me what their contact info is in Houston and I'll run a search on them in a Houston database and see what I can pull up. Definitely ask them to validate (send the letter CMRRR) and let me know what their Houston info is. And let them know you won't give them any money until you have something in writing.

Here's the Houston address:

PO Box 941911
Houston, TX 77094-8911

Alrighty... here's the weird stuff I found on Universal Fidelity.
1. The satellite map shows the P.O. Box address smack dab in the middle of a residential neighborhood (complete with swimming pool), so needless to say, that address is a little suspect.
There are two Houston locations for Universal Fidelity Corp, both within a mile of each other right of of I-10 in Houston.
1. 1445 Langham Creek Drive
Houston, TX 77084
281-550-1444
When I called this number, a woman named Tameka answered the phone and asked how she could direct my call.
2. 16001 Park 10 Pl
Houston, TX 77084
281-579-8888
When I called this number, I got an answering machine that said "Sorry we missed your call, please leave a name and number." They didn't give a contact name or anything, just that message.
Both of the Houston locations I listed are in an office complex area of I-10, so they might be a better bet than that P.O. Box.

So the phone number I have is 614-789-4825. Where's that?? This is very suspect.

WHOA!!! I just searched the phone number I posted and the location came up as Dublin!! So is this even real at all???

(614) area code is Southeastern Ohio, but there's no listing to any Universal Fidelity Corp anywhere in Ohio that I can find. But there are location in Florida, California, and Nevada, so they must have different branches depending on your location. Joyfordream, where are you located?

Dublin??!?!?!??! The U.S. lists it as an Ohio area code!!!

Yes the 614 is Ohio, but when you search thedirectory(dot)org this is what comes up:

So which is it then??

When you dial an out of country number, do you dial a 1? As in 1-789-614...?

Okay, so it might be Dublin, Ohio but why would the address be Houston with a Dublin OH phone number??

Now I found this:

(614) 764-3704
Universal Fidelity Corp 5550 Blazer Pkwy 150
Dublin, OH 43017 - 3478

the address and phone number on the letter I received is: P. O. Box 941911, HOuston, TX 77094-8911. office number is 614-789-4825
