Our address is changing soon!

You now need to send your correspondence to a new address for UK Accounts Payable.

We’ve made the change as part of a project to simplify how our finance and accounting teams work. This change means the work will be done by specialist BT teams, where previously the work was completed by Steria.

There’s no change to the way we’ll deal with your post, it’s just the address which is changing.

The new addresses for you to use are:

BT Accounts Payable / OR / BT AP Energy
PO Box 817 / PO Box 3099
1st Floor Brundrett Place / Room 102 Reading Zone Centre
1 Brundrett Street / 11 Basingstoke Road
STOCKPORT / READING
SK1 9DD / RG1 9ZJ

We apologise for any inconvenience this change may cause.

If you’ve got any questions, or you need to know a bit more then please feel free to telephone our help desk on 0800 515 465.

Introducing electronic invoicing

With this change we thought it’s a good time to suggest eInvoicing.

BT is phasing out the processing of paper invoices to take advantage of the benefits that electronic invoicing provides, and in the future electronic invoicing will be a condition of doing business with BT.

We’re making continuous improvements to our end to end procure to pay processes, and we’ve invested substantial time and money in new system platforms so we can maintain a world class standard as a purchasing organisation, improving efficiency and service to customers and suppliers.

This includes electronic invoicing and payment solutions which requires all BT suppliers to switch from paper to a specified electronic invoice solution.

eInvoicing brings key advantages, such as:

§  generally speeding up payment so improving cash-flow

§  lower administration costs in doing business with BT

§  reduced risk through payment, saving money and resources on chasing unpaid invoices

§  allowing you to submit invoices electronically

The eInvoicing options available are:

Tungsten Network

You may already be a user of Tungsten Network or have already been in discussions with Tungsten for the supply of eInvoicing services to support you with other customers, in which case this is easy!

There are two primary methods for sending invoice and credit transactions via Tungsten. You can either send a data file directly to Tungsten using the 'Integrated Solution', or create invoices online using their ‘web form'.

More information on Tungsten’s options and pricing can be found at http://www.tungsten-network.com/uk/en/bt/

Oracle iSupplier:

BTs iSupplier self-service tool has been available to contracted suppliers for some time, enabling you to view and download purchase orders, view invoice data (including due dates), monitor receipting and review payment details. This is accessed over the internet and is provided as a free service.

There are costs associated with Tungsten, however these should be outweighed by the benefits obtained. iSupplier is free but is currently restricted to sterling iBuy purchase orders only, and can be obtained by emailing .
