How do you get defunct business credit cards taken off my credit report when I don't have acct # anymore?

I recently got my credit report for the first time. There are credit cards still open to defunct businesses (Casual Corner for example). It's not a bank card (VISA, Capital 1) - but a personal business type of credit card. I no longer have the account numbers. Who do I contact to try to get these taken off my credit?

call the business type of credit card company and close the account but you cant get it off your credit history unless it was put there by fraud or if you never had the card....things stay on your report for 7 yrs
Reply:You don't. This is factual credit history.
Reply:If they show open then you need to find a way to contact the bank and get them closed. I'm sure they can do a search on your SSN and get the card information. If they are closed don't worry about it. It is just history.

Reply:On your credit report, there should be some type of contact information. They should be able to help you even if you don't have your account number. Your SSN should be a clue.
Reply:You can't take them off your record if the reports are accurate. If the problem is that they're listed as "open", then use the contact information that is listed with the creditor name and close the accounts.
