Credit file clean up.

in IVA & DRO
Hi all,
Looking for a bit of advice.
Not long finished my IVA, and looking into cleaning up my credit file. It's not looking to bad apart from a credit card account that was part of my IVA but is showing as "Current" & not "Closed". After fishing out my paperwork it looks like the debt was sold. Who do I send my polite letter to, too close the account, the original creditor or the company whom brought the debt?
Thanks for any advice in advance.
