	checkSURE recommends the following approach for company director reports so that Users get best value for money. If you know a) the name of the company of which your target individual is a director; and b) that your target director has ONLY this one directorship, then your best value report is a checkSURE UK Company Report on that company. however, if your target individual has more than one directorship you are best advised to buy a checkSURE Directors Report. Details on these two types of reports are found below.

As a small business, you will not doubt realise that although it is good to have many potential customers, it is even more important that they settle their debts to you on time. If your customers do not pay on time, this will adversely affect the cash flow within your business and can eventually lead to bankruptcy.

The best way to reduce the risk of this happening to your business is to perform a credit check on every potential customer or supplier before you start to trade with them. You will find that you cannot rely solely on the apparent size or age of the company as this does not necessarily mean that they will settle their debts on time. In many instances, larger companies tend to take a longer time to pay as they feel they have the power to do so.

Other than seek financial information from the company which is sometimes impractical, the most reliable way to choose which companies to trade with is to perform a company credit check on them. All limited companies within the UK will regularly file documents into Companies House – the UK company registrar, this will therefore verify the existence of the company. The financial data filed by the company into Companies House will be used, along with other information available on the company, to score the company according to how good they are at paying up their debts. The credit score and suggested credit limit will then give you a guide as to how much credit you can extend to the company if you wish to trade with them.
