Re: How about Companies House?

"However, the previous address still appears, and there's no way of deleting that. Surely not GDPR compliant?"

Yet again we have to explain. Companies House information is a requirement in statute law. GDPR does not apply in such situations. As CH data includes past as well as current data on officers you aren't going to disappear that easily. You could close the company and open a new one giving your accountant's address for the director's address (assuming the accountant consents). You then have to wait until the old company disappears from the record. I'm not sure how long that takes but the perpetual beta site seems no to have my old company there but that was closed over a decade ago.
