Cameo and Censation postcode data

Hi,
I was wondering if it was possible to appeal the Cameo/Censation postcode data for my road.
Currently my postcode, according to the app on Check My File, comes out at 57 out of 1000. I believe this is having a huge affect on my credit score. As all my accounts are in order. I have left my DMP over a year ago, and have no arrangements to pay and have no arrears on my accounts.
Every postcode/road that adjoins mine is in the high 700 or 800s. So I believe this score of 57 is an anomoly.
My Fiancee and I are getting married in November, and have already started saving towards a Mortgage. But this postcode will most likely cripple our chances of getting one. Even though by the time we have a deposit, we will have lived in this address over 3 years.
Heres hoping for good news,
Dave
