Any other information about payment terms
Our policy is always to pay to the agreed terms, and where we may have failed to do so, it is most likely a short delay due to the exact timing of a weekly payment run, and we are working now to improve on this.
Dispute resolution process
DENSO Marston is committed to making timely payment for all products and services. In the event of a payment query the supplier will contact the Accounts Payable team (accounts.payable@denso-marston.co.uk) who will attempt to resolve the query as soon as possible, in conjunction with the relevant departments.
