Did you submit the map inaccuracy suggestions to Tele Atlas online?
If not, the best way to submit them is by using the "Map Insight"
tool: http://mapinsight.teleatlas.com/mapfeedback/index.php

If you've already submitted the map feedback via their website, then
you've done everything correctly.  It takes time for the map feedback
to be implemented into new map updates, of course, but I know that
inputting map corrections via the online submission form does speed up
the process.

Essentially what you are doing is "flagging" the address as
inaccurate, so now Tele Atlas can prioritize where to look first when
updating their maps.
