When you need the full picture on a company: findcompany.info
Our sister service findcompany.info shows how a company pays its suppliers, its credit score, filed accounts, CCJs and who runs it. Here's when to use it.
CreditorTrack UK tells you when something changes at a company you trade with. But sometimes you need more than a warning. You need the full picture: can this company pay, who's behind it, and who else is already chasing it?
That's where findcompany.info comes in. It's our sister service, also run by HuBelor Limited. Here's what it offers, and how it fits alongside watching your customers.
What a full company report shows you
A company shows you what it wants you to see: a smart website, references it picked itself, a promise to pay on time. A findcompany.info report shows what sits behind that:
- How it pays its suppliers, not just how it says it pays
- Its credit score and recommended credit limit, and which way they're moving
- Its filed accounts, with the figures set out year on year
- Charges over its assets, so you know who gets paid first
- County court judgments and writs from other creditors
- Who owns and runs it
Reports open instantly, and you can read them online, print them or download a copy.
Three moments it pays to look
Before you sign
A new customer wants 30 or 60 days' credit. A report tells you what limit is sensible, whether to ask for a deposit or a personal guarantee, or whether to stick to payment up front.
While you trade
A good customer's orders are growing, and so is what they owe you. A fresh report tells you whether their finances have grown too, before you raise their limit.
Before you sue
Court action costs time and money. If the company has no assets and a string of judgments against it, winning may not get you paid. A report helps you decide whether it's worth it.
What it costs
- Searching is free. Look up any UK company by name or number without paying.
- A single report is £12. It costs less per report if you buy a pack.
- Your own company, free with code CHECKME. New business customers who enter CHECKME when they sign up get one free report on their own company, with no card needed. It's useful if you've been refused credit or offered a lower limit than you expected, and want to see what's on record. How CHECKME works.
Free guides and tools
findcompany.info also has free guides for small businesses, including your rights when customers pay late and how trade credit insurance works. Its calculators let you work out statutory interest on an overdue invoice. No account is needed to use them.
