      I am using Moz Local UK on behalf of a customer of mine.

      There are two verified listings when I do a search for their business name and postcode.

      There are a couple of slight variations in the two verified NAPs; One says Road, the other says Rd. One says their county, the other says their district - or East Sussex & Brighton & Hove.

      Both their Facebook and Google+ pages say Road and East Sussex.

      Both verified listings are wrong and in contrast to any Facebook or Google+ account.

      Not too sure where to go with this and would appreciate any advice :0)

        Hi Kurt,

        Thanks for writing us and I hope this message finds you well! This question can get a bit tricky because there can often be a few facbook or google places pages with information very close to the desired listing can often create some confusion. I would select the facebook and google places partner is the listings that have been verified to see what we are pulling. Here is a screen capture for reference: http://screencast.com/t/m4t4yt7bti5

        Also, this help hub article does a pretty good job of breaking down this process here: https://moz.com/help/guides/local/listing

        If you can verify the pages that we are pulling from are not the ones associated with your clients business I would be happy to create a ticket with our engineering staff on your behalf.

        Let me know what you find and I would be happy to help you with the rest of the process.

        Thanks again for being awesome and I look forward to speaking with you soon!
