That is it.  No other accounts?

 

Did you get the score from EX or from this website?  If it is from EX it is not a FICO score.

 

I would contact the OC for those accounts and see if they will work with you and pull the accounts back from the CA and have them delete.

That is what is termed a FAKO score because it is a non FICO.  They can vary greatly.
