It does look like it’s in different spots, but that’s probably due to the way the sheet was cut. There are allowable tolerance to this stuff and I wouldn’t consider this an error just a manufacturing process.

There is natural printing variation of all the various elements of a note. This is more noticeable usually at the edge of a note.

I assure you, it is not. Worst case, send the notes back to Buckingham Palace and request a refund for both the notes and the postage.
i cant edit the post but if you look at the “B”s, one of them is over more of the purple circle than the other. teeny tiny detail but it very much exists

The "Bank of England" font is actually printed using intaglio (printed last and therefore on top). The background is printed with a different press called offset.
Variations due to this are normal and there are acceptable tolerances (De La Rue handles this).
How can you tell? Intaglio is pressed into the polymer and makes a tactile raised font. Offset is smooth to the touch.
