In their own words · from the filing
Standard payment terms
Payment of an invoice shall normally be submitted 30 calendar days from the end of the month in which the invoice is dated, with funds clearing on the first working day of the following period. A mid-month payment is normally submitted on the 15th calendar day of each month for suppliers with agreed terms that result in payments falling due on or after the first calendar day of the month. When a new supplier is set up 30 days end of month payment terms would be used unless otherwise agreed with the supplier during the set-up process.
Dispute resolution
Payment disputes related to invoices received are referred to the Accounts Payable team who will investigate the dispute and liaise with the necessary internal and external stakeholders in order to provide a resolution. Accounts Payable can be contacted at [email protected]

What a 49-day cycle ties up
A worked example, not a finding. On a hypothetical £12k/month account, at a 49-day vs a 30-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 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).
