Moz Local UK - Is Facebook or Google being used to verify NAP?
-
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!

Does Moz Local update/correct business listings?
Moz Local distributes your business listing to the important data providers, but what if your business information is already in their database? Does Moz Local update this info for me, or am I still required to go through the manual process of doing this myself on the data providers website (for example, Yelp or Hotfrog)?

Hi, I've recently set-up a Moz local account and have submitted my business to it. However for some reason my Facebook page is not showing up in the listing report. The Facebook page is active and has all the NAP details but in the listing report, it only gives the option of creating a listing. Am I doing somesting wrong? https://www.facebook.com/surreyroofcare/

Moz Local Address Issues
I've been having some issues with addresses recently that I've been submitting to Moz Local and I'd like to see if other people are having similar issues and how they are resolving them... So Moz local requires you to have any Suite or Floor info on line 2 and I am having a hard time making this work with Google. It seems like they always add it to line 1 and when I call to get it fix it is like pulling teeth to get it right. There has been a couple times i've had to fight to tell them its not formatted right. All this trouble has really made me think about if it is worth it using the service if this is going to be an issue.

How does Moz Local work with business that don't have a physical location? (e.g., handyman, locksmith, etc.)
I'm wondering how Moz Local will handle a business that doesn't want to publicly display an address. A handyman, landscaper, or locksmith might want to do something like this. Is it easily handled or do you have to manually try to "work around" to hide the address on sites that let you? Thanks!
