Old companies missing info - are these being removed from data? WebCHeck also seemed to be missing information. Yes, these are “old” companies but still shown as active as far as we can tell:

1. LP002617 - “F.H.GREENAWAY” [https://beta.companieshouse.gov.uk/company/LP002617](https://beta.companieshouse.gov.uk/company/LP002617)

No address in API / Beta / WebCHeck.

Also appears to have the same previous name as its current name. I can dig no further since filing history returns “filing-history-not-available-limited-partnership-before-1988”.

1. SC050398 -ALBANY HOMES LIMITED (82/1145) – this only appears in data dump. Searching on the company number in webCHeck doesn’t show any result but searching for the name shows the company in the list. The company isn’t listed as in liquidation / dissolved. The company number isn’t found by URI ([http://data.companieshouse.gov.uk/doc/company/SC050398.json](http://data.companieshouse.gov.uk/doc/company/SC050398.json)) and Beta has nothing at all.

I will get these data issues investigated.

regarding LP002617.  
The previous name has been corrected and this information has been supplied to me:-  
No RO address has ever been recorded for this Limited Partnership LP002617 .  
Note that this is quite common amongst LPs (approx. one third) as we are basically only required to record the Name and Number.

SC050398 is now available on Beta and other services.  
It has been restored by court order. These types of cases simply bring the company back to a legal entity, usually to facilitate financial or legal proceedings.  
Hope this helps
