How do you get your free credit report if you don’t have the requested information?

David asked:


I recently attempted to get my free annual credit report online, however my attempt hit a wall when I was asked to provide a credit card number for a debt that I had accrued a few years ago. I no longer have any information which tells me what this number is and the only way I’ve found that I could retrieve this number would be to actually see the credit report itself. Is there any way around this catch-22?
