Invoice Payment Practices

This information is as reported by the business, and responses are in their own words.

Payment Terms

Standard payment terms

6 to 60 days

Were there any changes to the standard payment terms in the reporting period?

No information available

Any other information about payment terms

The 6 days payment period referred to under “Shortest standard payment period” above is based on the supply standard of 6 days after month of lifting – if product was lifted on the last day of the month then payment would be due 6 days later. Payment statistics disclosed in this report can be affected by a number of different factors including payments made to other BP group companies which are included within the data disclosed. Invoices are often reported as due but not paid within agreed terms because BACS transfers to suppliers arrive in the supplier’s bank account two business days after leaving the company’s bank account and the company typically initiates payments in batches, on a daily basis; where this is the case payments will normally be received by the supplier within a few days of the due date.

Maximum contractual payment period agreed

60

Dispute Resolution Process

The Company will notify suppliers of any invoice disputes. The Company and the supplier will endeavour to resolve all disputes by agreement of the parties. Once resolved, payment will be made in accordance with agreed terms. If these discussions are unsuccessful, then the dispute will be resolved by reference to arbitration or courts (as specified in the contract).

Other Payment Information

Has this business signed up to a code of conduct or standards on payment practices?
