Re: Account of [name account under]; Account No# __________________
Dear Sir or Madam:
I recently ordered a copy of my credit report and noticed that an old, abandoned account I have with your company has not been officially closed. This account has been paid in full and I have no plans to use it in the future. Therefore, I am writing this letter to request that your company officially close this account and report this fact to all of the credit bureaus to which you subscribe, so that a notation will appear on my credit report stating that this account has been "closed by accountholder".
Thank you very much for your attention to this matter.
Sincerely,
Your name
