Dispute Resolution Process

Purchase orders are raised for the majority of purchases to an approved Rank supplier. Contact details of the person raising the purchase order are given to the supplier on the purchase order. This would normally be the first point of contact for a supplier to resolve a payment dispute. The purchase order also includes terms and conditions of purchase. Section 6.3 under Payment states "If the buyer (Rank) fails to make any payment due to the seller under the contract by the due date for payment then the buyer shall pay interest on the overdue amount at the rate of 2% per annum above the National Westminster Bank Plc's base rate. Such interest shall accrue on a daily basis from the due date until the actual payment whether before or after judgement. This clause does not apply to payments that the buyer disputes in good faith". Rank would normally advise a supplier if there was an issue with goods or services delivered and request a credit note. If this was disputed by the supplier, then again the person that raised the PO would normally negotiate this directly.
