In their own words · from the filing

Standard payment terms

McGregor Cory Limited is part of the DHL group of companies in the UK. DHL Purchase Order Terms and Conditions sets out that subject to satisfactory receipt and acceptance of the Goods and/or Services, invoices shall become due for payment sixty (60) days after the receipt of a correct invoice by DHL (unless applicable law requires a shorter payment period). Payment shall be made in the currency as stated in the Purchase Order.

Dispute resolution

DHL Purchase Order Terms and Conditions sets out that if DHL disputes any sum on an invoice, subject to applicable law, it may withhold the entire sum owed under that invoice and it will notify the Supplier in writing of such dispute, giving full details of the dispute and of the actual sum it claims on bona fide grounds not to be liable to pay. When suppliers are set up on the company’s system, they are sent a supplier pack. This pack provides the supplier with information on the DHL Purchase Order Terms and Conditions, DHL Supplier Code of Conduct and invoicing procedures including details on invoice disputes and DHL contact details.

How UK payment reporting works

What is a Payment Practices Report?
UK companies and LLPs above a size threshold — broadly, two of: turnover over £54m, balance sheet over £27m, or more than 250 employees — must report twice a year, under the Reporting on Payment Practices and Performance Regulations 2017, how quickly they actually pay suppliers: the average time to pay, the share of invoices paid in 30 days or fewer, 31 to 60 days and 61 days or longer, and their standard payment terms. Those thresholds apply to financial years beginning on or after 6 April 2025; for earlier financial years they were £36m and £18m, with the same 250-employee test.
What does "paid outside agreed terms" mean?
The share of invoices paid later than the terms in the supplier contract. If terms are 30 days and an invoice is paid on day 45, it counts as paid outside terms, regardless of the headline average.
How often is this data updated?
Each report covers a six-month period and must be filed within 30 days of that period ending, so a company's record refreshes roughly twice a year. PaidLate re-reads the register as new reports are filed.
Is this official government data?
The underlying payment figures come from the company's own statutory filings on the gov.uk payment-practices service; company-status data comes from Companies House. PaidLate calculates trends, comparisons and summaries from those records. It does not use surveys or credit-agency scores.

How this is compiled. Built from official records only: Companies House and the gov.uk payment-practices service. The payment figures are self-reported — companies over the size threshold must file them by law and the board signs them off. No credit-agency data. The numbers are theirs; the plain-English read is ours. This is information compiled from public records under the Open Government Licence v3.0 — not a credit rating and not advice.

The 31-day comparison figure is the median across 6,185 companies with a current statutory report — every sector pooled, not an average of sector medians (how the figure is built).
