What they tell their suppliers
In their own words · from the filing
Standard payment terms
The company operates a standard payment term of End of Month following month of invoice, meaning the standard payment terms could be up to 60 days. Terms out with standard terms can be lower or higher than 60 days, dependant on supplier. Invoices in our statistics include those from non-UK suppliers. Payment terms agreed with these suppliers are typically in excess of 60 days to allow for transit time
Dispute resolution
In the first instance, suppliers are encouraged to submit queries to a central mailbox held by the finance team, [email protected]. Our aim is to review these queries on a daily basis and resolve as soon as possible. The Accounts Payable team will escalate to Finance Manager any disputes they are unable to resolve. We also have an automated switchboard which allows suppliers to speak directly with a member of the finance team.

What a 52-day cycle ties up
A worked example, not a finding. On a hypothetical £12k/month account, at a 52-day vs a 3-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).
