Check a company before you trade

A £30 check on any UK company you supply or buy from, including VAT. A credit report, a risk check and a live search of the court records, emailed to you within two working days of payment.

What you get

  1. Credit report. The company's credit score and suggested credit limit from a credit reference agency, with any county court judgments on record.
  2. Risk check. We read its Companies House record (accounts, late filings, director changes, charges), its payment practices record if it files one, and every insolvency notice about it in The Gazette, and tell you what stands out.
  3. Live court search. On the day, we search the High Court's own records for winding-up petitions and claims filed against the company, including ones not yet advertised in The Gazette.

The court search covers the High Court's Business and Property Courts in London and its regional centres, which hear most winding-up petitions in England and Wales. It does not cover county courts, Scotland or Northern Ireland.
