I have the same problem with Halstead in Essex.  I sent them a list of missing streets in both the Urban and Rural areas.  About half the town is missing, yet I had relatives living there who passed on in the 1950s and 60s.

I've also found that if you report an error in a name transcription, they may change it (e.g. James should have read Jones) but it still comes up as James Household.

And, frustratingly, when you request a record to be opened, they don't re-index so you can't search fro that record under the name - you still have to search on someone else in the house who had been indexed
