About this profile

BRITISH GAS TRADING LIMITED reports an average time to pay of 17 days, with 3% of invoices paid outside agreed terms, based on data supplied under the UK Duty to Report on Payment Practices. This reflects payment performance only. This score reflects its most recent reporting period only (2026) -- the same rule applied to every company regardless of how many periods they've filed, so a longer track record is never used to drag a score down. The full 9-period history is shown on the Full Good Business Partner Profile. It has not yet completed the GBP-14 Diagnostic, so this is not a full Supplier Choice Index certification.
