IMO, start with the addresses listed on your CRs. You'll need your full reports from the CRAs (or via annualcreditreport.com). As a secondary source, use the addresses listed from their websites. As a third source, use regulatory and/or banking contact info listed on various states' databases (available very easily online). Finally, another source would be via consumer sites like BBB, the Consumerist, Hoovers, etc. But definitely start with the CR addresses first because that's the department that does reporting.

+1  Start with those addresses listed.  If that doesn't work or get a response, search on here or post for information.  Good Luck!
