In their own words · from the filing
Standard payment terms
Standard payment terms for non vehicle purchases are typically the end of the month following the date of invoice. The standard payment method is via BACS. Standard payment terms for new vehicle purchases are agreed with the represented manufacturers individually. New vehicles are typically paid for within 7 days of being registered. Demonstrator vehicles attract extended payment terms of up to 365 days. Payment is taken via Direct Debit in both instances. Used Vehicles are paid for in full on acquisition, either as direct purchases or as part exchanged vehicles.
Dispute resolution
Yeomans seeks to settle all invoices within the agreed payment terms, subject to the invoice being presented correctly and authorised by the manager who placed the order. The manager is also responsible for liaising with the supplier to resolve any dispute which may arise.

What a 27-day cycle ties up
A worked example, not a finding. On a hypothetical £12k/month account, at a 27-day vs a 1-day payment cycle.
Late Payment Act. The Late Payment of Commercial Debts (Interest) Act 1998 lets a supplier charge statutory interest and fixed compensation on invoices paid past agreed terms. Work out what a late invoice is worth → Whether it applies depends on your contract — check with an adviser.

How often is this data updated?
Is this official government data?
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 6,104 companies with a current statutory report — every sector pooled, not an average of sector medians (how the figure is built).
