Telecommunications Payment Practices Report 2021

24 October 2022•By Alastair Campbell, Founder•Reports

UK Telecoms Giant Blows Payment Standards Out of the Water

The Numbers

  • Companies analysed: 1
  • Average PaymentCheck Score: 85.3/100
  • UK average: 50.0/100
  • Telecommunications sector average: 35.3 points below this company's score
  • Top 5 Payers: See list below
  • Bottom 5 Payers: See list below
  • Regional Average (South East): 85.3/100

What Stands Out

Honestly, this dataset is incredibly underwhelming. We're looking at the payment practices of a single company, GIGACLEAR LIMITED, which scores remarkably high, but doesn't give us any wider perspective on the UK Telecoms sector. Without comparative data, it's difficult to draw meaningful conclusions beyond GIGACLEAR's own performance, but it is fair to say they are significantly above the average.

Best Payers

  1. GIGACLEAR LIMITED - 85.35/100

Worst Payers

  1. GIGACLEAR LIMITED - 85.35/100

Regional Patterns

The South East region has an average PaymentCheck score of 85.3/100. However, this is based solely on GIGACLEAR LIMITED, so it's more a reflection of that company's performance in the South East, rather than a broader regional trend. It's impossible to infer whether the South East is a particularly strong or weak region for telecoms payments without analysing more companies.

If you're dealing with late payments, use this late payment calculator to quickly determine what you're owed.

Takeaway: GIGACLEAR LIMITED, with a PaymentCheck score of 85.3/100, stands out as a strong payer based on this limited dataset, exceeding the UK average by 35.3 points, but further analysis across multiple companies is needed to understand broader payment trends within the UK Telecommunications sector.

Still waiting to be paid?

A reminder from you is easy to ignore. PaymentCheck sends a formal late payment notice on your behalf — from a third party that publicly tracks the payment behaviour of 9,600+ UK companies. Free, and it takes 60 seconds.
