    Hello. I too have been advised to contact Payerise by my agency and after a lot of searching on the web, I could not find much out about them, their own site even has very little content. I then stumbled upon this. I used to work through a Ltd company but I will only be doing a 3-5 month contract and then I am going into a permanent role. Can anybody shed anymore light on how they operate and if you or anybody you know has had any experience with them?
    No, no-one here has used them.

    We don't know how they operate, so here are the questions you need to ask http://forums.contractoruk.com/hmrc-...following.html

    And for general advice, look here http://forums.contractoruk.com/umbre...companies.html

      I am new to contracting - part jumped and part pushed!

      I have been looking any a few options including umbrella structures.

      I have been chatting to a rather nice bit confusing lady at who seems to be a BD Consultant for payerise. It all seemed to be going well until she mentioned the fact that I would be given shares... however these would be in a Jersey company.

      not sure i want to be mucking around in tax havens. Does anyone have any experience of this? Have I got the wrong end of the stick? Help.

      Cheers

      That bit's not mentioned on the website, is it?

        Nor the part when you have to take out a "proper loan" to pay back the loan that is more than the taxes you have avoided Sorry should I have said shares!

          Thank you all. I have not actually contacted them, so I do not have figures to provide. Feeling a bit dubious and reading about Jersey, shares etc, I decided not to. Maybe I should to see what they are offering? Interesting nobody has used or heard of them, telling in it's self.

            If you want to know more about the company and its director, take a look at Companies House.

            It's not often that I come across a director with very nearly 300 companies associated with his name....

              Yes, funnily enough I did do that before seeing your reply. Something is definitely amiss

                So no, you'll see no recommendations for those kind of companies on this forum.
                I used Payrise many moons ago and they left something to be desired then. Seems like they are still messing around. I'd give them a wide berth if I was you.
