Maximum contractual payment information

Standard contractual terms are 60 days although there are a range of different terms

Reported terms and dispute process
  1. Standard payment terms

    Our standard payment terms are 60 days but we accept terms between payment in advance up to 90 days.

  2. Dispute resolution process

    The Business operates a standard 3-way match for most goods/services First attempt to settle a payment takes place in the Accounts Payable department via the 3 way match If a 3 way match is not possible the end user/receiver of the goods/services are contacted by the AP department to resolve the query - at this stage the Purchasing department may also be involved If end user or Purchasing department cannot resolve the query and manually release the payment the supplier is contacted directly and worked with to resolve the issue All disputes are aimed to be resovled within the contractual terms where possible Where goods or services are provided and the process does not require a purchase order, invoices are manually released by the end user or a manager with sufficient authority. In the case of a dispute the end user would resolve with the supplier as per the standared process Once the dispute is resolved and invoices are accepted and/or credit and new invoices received, the payment is settled Suppliers should contact the Accounts Payable department with all queries - AccountsPayableUK@accord-healthcare.com

PSC records are company-filed public-register information. When the exact same displayed individual name occurs at multiple companies, BritDB offers a non-indexed cross-reference page. It is a name match only, not proof that the records describe the same person. Service addresses and partial dates of birth are deliberately omitted.

09 Charity register

Charity Commission links

Snapshot 29 September 2026
CCEW

No exact company-number link in this snapshot

The Charity Commission extract did not explicitly associate this Companies House number with a charity. BritDB does not use a name-only match to fill the gap.

i

This company-level check covers the Charity Commission for England and Wales. Links are accepted only when the official extract supplies this exact company registration number. Scottish charities now have separate OSCR profiles, but OSCR’s bulk fields do not provide a Companies House number, so BritDB does not infer a company link.

The CCNI source number did not resolve uniquely to this Companies House record. BritDB did not use a name or address match.

CCNI publishes company numbers without a jurisdiction prefix. BritDB links only when the plausible padded UK and NI candidates resolve to exactly one Companies House company.

The imported UK Sanctions List did not supply this Companies House number as a UK-linked business identifier. BritDB did not attempt a name-only match.

No exact link is not sanctions clearance. UK restrictions can apply through ownership or control even where an entity is not separately named. Always use the current official list and obtain appropriate advice for a legally significant decision.
