Unable to transfer to Sky Broadband - can’t recognise details

Not sure if anyone has had a similar issue. I’m trying to switch to Sky broadband and have completed all my details (address, account no.) and this is triggering an email to Plusnet to acknowledge I’m doing this.
On Sky’s website however, they’re telling me they can’t recognise the details I have provided. I notice in my bills my address is spelled correctly, but in my account there is a (common) typo in my street name. I’ve tried both versions with no luck.
Anyone had similar problems or can think of potential fixes for this? Thanks

This needs to be fixed via an ORDI request, which needs a call to PLUSNET support. You need to know the correct address for your property (check on royal mail.com).
You could try to place an order on Sky’s order line, rather than their computer says no website.
In another browser tab, login into the Plusnet user portal BEFORE clicking the fault & ticket links
Superusers are not staff, but they do have a direct line of communication into the business in order to raise issues, concerns and feedback from the community.

@Townman beat me to it, as stated the first step is to ascertain the "definitive" address as recorded by Royal mail.
Start here: Postcode Finder - Find an address │ Royal Mail Group Ltd

Every property has a UPRN (Unique Property Reference Number), remember post codes can be for a range of addresses, many properties sharing the same code
You can find yours here https://www.findmyaddress.co.uk/search
