This is how banks, suppliers and customers see your company on Checked, and what you can do about it.
Your Checked score, and what pulls it down
The first number a bank or supplier sees beside your name.
Your latest accounts carry too few figures to compute a score. Small companies may file abbreviated accounts without turnover; ratios are then missing.
Without a score, banks and suppliers mainly see your register data, your filings and the Gazette publications. They are below.
See the score in your dossierYour annual accounts: on time?
How many days before or after the statutory deadline you filed, beside your sector's median.
Next deadline: the accounts for 2026 are due before 31 July 2027.
