Who do i have to contact if i have to accounts in collection i was not aware of?

Can you have accounts that have been closed for 2 to 4 years removed from your credit report?
If your question pertains to closed, positive, accounts; you do not want tyis type of account removed (or more accurately, shielded from view) on your credit file. Old positive accounts still show past payment history. If these accounts were open, they would be aiding your credit score by lengthening the time you have had open credit. But, even when closed, they show past credit history. This is good thing, and not something want removed. If your question pertains to accounts with derogatory information; those items may legally show on your credit for 7 years from the date of last activity. After 2 to 4 years, you can write a letter of dispute to the credit bureaus. If the accounts are not verified within 30 days, they must be shielded. If verified, they will not only remain on your credit report, but also get updated. This won't change the length of time they show on your report, but MAY effect how much they impact your score.
How do you get accounts that have been closed for a long time removed from your credit report?
You get closed accounts removed from your credit report in the same manner as any other information. You write a letter of dispute to the creditor, or credit bureau, or both. The question is; why do you want closed accounts removed from your credit? If these accounts were paid as agreed, their appearance on your credit report is still offsetting any other information that appears there. I have clients with closed, 6-10 year old, accounts and active derogatory accounts that still have viable credit scores. Were they to challenge and have removed the closed accounts, they would have no score at all, which can be worse than having a low score. Keep in mind that your credit report, and the resulting credit score, is a history of how you have paid your bills in the last 7 to 10 years. You do not necessarily want that history to be empty.
