Late Payments

All accounts, unless specific special terms are agreed in writing, should be paid by the due date shown on the Invoice.

Accounts that are overdue will be temporarily suspended and under these circumstances no order can be processed for despatch. This affects back orders and advanced orders in the same way. Like most companies we are quite strict on credit control. If accounts are not paid to terms we employ the services of Thomas Higgins Ltd, a Merseyside based firm of specialist debt collection solicitors. This is normally a 'Last Resort' and we generally hope that customers at least advise us of difficulties in order that we can come to some agreeable settlement.
