Standard payment terms
Our business standard payment terms for vendors dealing with Veolia UK companies are 45 days end of month from the receipt of the invoice (i.e. vendors are paid at the end of the month following a 45 day period from the date of receipt by Veolia of a valid invoice). However we do still have some legacy payment terms which are affecting our paid on time statistics.
Were there any changes to the standard payment terms in the reporting period?

We work with our suppliers to ensure that disputes are resolved in a timely manner.

According to our Terms & Conditions, which are available on our website, excluding the payment of invoices subject to a bona fide dispute, if the Customer fails to make a payment due to the Supplier under this Contract by the due date, then the Customer shall pay interest on the overdue sum from the due date until payment of the overdue sum, whether before or after judgement. Interest under this clause will accrue at 2% a year above the Bank of England base rate. The parties agree that the remedies under this clause are sufficient for the purposes of the Late Payment of Commercial Debts (Interest) Act 1998
