Credit Accounts

Photo Data House

We can accept authorized purchase orders from Universities, Government Depts., and PLCs (Public Limited Companies) without the need for credit accounts to be set up. All other organizations will need to complete a Credit Application Form before we can set up an account or ship goods. This credit account will take 5 days to register from the date of the first order. All subsequent orders can then be taken into the account.

Alternatively, we accept most major credit/debit cards that will speed up the processing of the first order.

We have 3 different methods for arranging to pay for your order. Most customers use a credit account facility - you order the goods, and we invoice you when the goods are despatched. This invoice must then be paid within a specific pre-arranged period (which is normally by the end of the following month).

Before we can issue you a credit account, we must have received at least one payment from you by cheque or bacs. This is a stipulation enforced on us by our credit underwriters. A company cheque or Bacs payment proves that the company exists, that it has a bank account, and that it is solvent. (This procedure doesn't take effect if the purchasing authority is a government department, a local Council, or an educational establishment) If you have therefore paid us already by cheque or bacs, we can proceed to open an account. Please remember to include an authorized purchase order with each job that you send to us.

  • Request the Credit Application Form
  • Fill in the form, remember to sign and date it, and send it back to us by email/post/fax
  • We apply to our credit underwriters for an account.
  • We will email you once the account is open and ready to use.

INVOICING

We invoice at the same time as shipping. Invoices will be in UK £ sterling by default, although we can also invoice in dollars $ US or Euros € Eu. We can accept payments in all three of these currencies. These payments can be made by cheque or by direct payment into the relevant currency account. Payment must be made within 30 days of the end of the invoice month. Bank account details feature at the bottom of each invoice.
