Dispute resolution process

In case of a dispute the vendor should contact the Accounts Payable team at invoicequeries@dreams.co.uk. If the query requires further escalation it would be sent to the buyer holding the relationship with that vendor. We do request all vendors to send their invoices in a pdf format to invoice@dreams.co.uk for processing, quoting a purchase order number once the order is placed. Details of our terms and conditions are sent to each vendor on account set up and as and when updated.
