Standard payment terms

The Company negotiates and agrees payment terms with its suppliers as one element of its procurement process. As a result, payment terms vary by supplier. Authorised invoices will be paid ‘net monthly’, being payment to the supplier by the end of month following the month of invoice. Practically this can result in a payment period between 28 days and 61 days.

Dispute resolution process

Complaints or concerns relating to disputes about payments should be directed in writing to the Accounts Payable team at Fintel House, St Andrews Road, Huddersfield, HD1 6NA. We seek to resolve such queries as quickly as possible to everyone’s satisfaction prior to payment being made. In the event that a dispute cannot be resolved by our Accounts Payable team, it would be escalated to the relevant Head of Department to seek a resolution.
