Late Payment

Where possible, ECP will always contact you to attempt to resolve late payments and outstanding invoices. In circumstances where our communications do not resolve unpaid invoices ECP reserves the right to charge late payment interest on any outstanding invoice at the rate of 5% of the total invoice amount to cover our administration costs. Where an unpaid invoice is referred for debt collection, the legal costs will be added to the total amount due.
