What they tell their suppliers

1% of invoices in dispute

In their own words · from the filing

Standard payment terms

In the absence of any dispute notified to the supplier and unless otherwise specified in the contract, the Customer shall pay each invoice within ten Business Days of the second month following the month of receipt by the Customer.

Dispute resolution

If a supplier has any disputes or concerns regarding any aspect of our payment process, their first contact would be the contract owner in the business (whose details would be included in any engagement documentation or contract). In the absence of that, suppliers may contact our Accounts Payable department directly through the main switchboard. The aim of any conversation is always to resolve any issue in a timely and collaborative manner, in order to maintain a good working relationship. If those involved are unable to find a solution, then the issue would be escalated within the business operations group to managerial level and above. Our more substantial contracts often contain a dispute resolution process agreed with the supplier that describes various levels of escalation thro

Other information

For the purposes of this report, we have assumed 45-day payment terms (which are generally shorter than those agreed) as the basis for reporting the percentage of invoices not paid within the agreed period. This assumption is based on improved supplier terms and payment data which has enabled us to report more accurately.

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).
