Any other information about payment terms
At ScottishPower we have various legal entities which make up the ScottishPower Group. A wide range of standard and bespoke contracts are entered into by these entities which are dependent on a number of factors including the type of goods/services/construction being procured and the standard terms which may exist in some of these markets. However our standard payment terms are 30 days from the invoice date. If a valid invoice is received promptly at the correct address, quoting a valid purchase order it will be included within one of our payment runs, which are carried out twice per week to ensure the invoice is paid on or before the invoice due date.
The correct invoicing address, which is quoted on all purchase orders is; 320 St Vincent Street, Glasgow, G2 5AD
