Dispute resolution process

In the first instance, suppliers are encouraged to submit queries to a central mailbox held by Mitsubishi finance team finance@m-ace.mee.com. Our aim is to review these queries on a daily basis and resolve the issue as soon as is practically 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 staff.
