What they tell their suppliers
In their own words · from the filing
Standard payment terms
There are no standard terms as each contract is negotiated separately. On average most suppliers have terms between 14 and 30 days.
Dispute resolution
Specifically regarding complaints from suppliers, most suppliers and/or their finance department will have the direct contact details of our accounts payable department who they will contact in the first place, particularly if the complaint is administrative or due to payment. Once contact is made, usually by phone or email, a member of the AP team will resolve. In the majority of cases there is an easy resolution but if there is a more significant problem it may be escalated internally and if necessary to the account or relationship manager at the supplier in question.

How UK payment reporting works
What is a Payment Practices Report?
What does "paid outside agreed terms" mean?
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).
