Dispute Resolution Process

Cable News International Limited (“CNIL”) operates a purchase order policy. CNIL reserves the right to reject invoices directly back to suppliers if, where applicable, they are not accompanied by a valid PO number. Where a PO has been issued by CNIL, accompanying invoices should not exceed the value of the PO. Internal stakeholders raise requests for new suppliers via Procurement. Applications are filtered to determine whether existing alternatives exist, or whether tendering / benchmarking is required. A New Supplier Pack is sent to the potential provider, complete with standard MSA, banking request details, a COI and GDPR form. Suppliers are then loaded into PeopleSoft to enable POs to be raised. Where to send your invoices to: All invoices should be sent by e-mail to the Turner Broadcasting Systems Europe accounts payable team. Our e-mail address is cnn.aplondon@turner.com For regional specific invoices please refer to the e-mail address on your purchase order. Who to Contact: For regional specific invoices please e-mail all enquiries to the contact details on your purchase order. Our standard payment terms: Our standard supplier payment terms are 60 days from date of invoice. For payment and invoice enquiries please call the accounts payable helpdesk. The helpdesk will be able to advise on all payment or invoice enquiries. Our escalation process: Any invoices that CNIL dispute will be returned by your business point of contact with a full explanation of the dispute. This is the person who you are working with to supply goods and services to CNIL. Any invoice or payment enquiries/disputes which are not fully resolved to your satisfaction, can, in turn, be escalated to: Przemyslaw Smigielski - przemyslaw.smigielski@wbd.com
