Dispute resolution process

We are committed to resolving any queries and disputes with suppliers as quickly as possible. Any queries regarding payment should in the first instance be raised with our Accounts Payable Team at our Orsett Head Office. Queries and disputes that cannot be quickly resolved by the Accounts Payable team will be escalated to the relevant department and person within the business to resolve. To minimise queries, suppliers should ensure that invoices contain all relevant information, including a valid purchase order number covering all invoiced items.
