Credit Clean-up but dont know details??

Hi guys,

Im about to start printing off some letters to send to creditors that are still showing a default balance on my credit files.
Equifax and Experian are still showing the same defaults, callcredit on the other hand, dont show ANY credit accounts in my name what-so-ever!!??!! Callcredit are only showing my new Barclays and Co-Op accounts but nothing from my past!

Anyway, Because of the amount of time that has elapsed between getting in unrecoverable debt and declaring BR plus moving house twice inbetween, I no long have any of the details of the default accounts. No account numbers no nothing.:(

If I send these letters, will they know who I am and acknowledge my requests to update their records accordingly even though I have no account number etc etc??

Any ideas guys?

Thanks.:D

    Well, you were right, the account numbers are listed but not for all my ex creditors.
    The two that are missing account numbers are: Virgin Media and Lowell Portfolio 1 Ltd.
    At least ive got three out of the five creditors details thats a good start I guess?
    I also want to ask how I get the two CCJ's removed from my credit file aswel??
    Is that a difficult thing to do???
