Incorrect adress on my report

In in process of trying to improve my score/ credit report for possible future lenders.
I had an issue with NatWest couple of years ago when NatWest changed adress on my account to some random adress where I had never lived. Upon discovery of this, the accounts were frozen and new cards issues and fraud markets were placed on my account. This proved problematic as at that time I insisted to move all my savings balances from NatWest elsewhere and the transfer couldn’t go through due to fraud marker. So we agreed to remove fraud marker.

With time passed I can concluded this must have been genuine admin error on NatWest side and no fraud.
The incorrect adress still shows on my credit report as one of my former addresses. Does this have any impact at all?
and if it does, should I request credit report agency to fix it or NatWest?

Address.
Does it show on all 3 of the main CRAs ?
Ask them to correct if you are concerned about it.The world is not ruined by the wickedness of the wicked, but by the weakness of the good. Napoleon0 -
Yes it’s on all 3 reports, provided by NatWest.
