Contract Rate

It's looking like the deal will be 3 days a week for 3 months.

This thread can be deleted as I won't be taking the contract at £17ph.

That would explain why they can't find a sucker.

You need to fix that FTFY too.

How low can they go??

Could you not offer to support them on an adhoc basis. And just charge for the hours you work, rather than having an agreed 3 day/week contract, then just charge £100 per hour. Until they find someone.

That's what I do with my usual customers. However, they are down to 1 IT admin and there is a lot of work.
I like being busy, however at £17ph, after tax, accountant etc etc, it will be more likely £5 haha

It's not even worth thinking about now. I laughed for a good 30 mins when I found out the rate.

OP would not laugh too much £17ph is the going rate nowadays for a lot of these roles outside the banking sector!
