Use the credit bureaus to dispute the information (if you haven’t already). If the accounts are verified then the bureaus should post the contact information (or at least the address). If the accounts aren’t verified (i.e. the company doesn’t verify them within 30 days) then they, by law, have to remove them from your credit bureau reports.
