    Re: peeee4

    I'm still using them because I can't get away from them. My own personal experience has been woeful and it's the least I can do to let others know who are new to contracting, and the legal side of things, of my experience. It's up to them to make their own judgements. P4 are getting over £80 a week from me in fees. For that money, the service I'm getting is way below par. I am an IT person, I'm not trained in legal matters.

    The fact that Jobserve and the like advertise Prosperity4 is because they're being paid to, obviously. It's also the reason I went with them, because as I said, I hadn't found this forum, and had no point of reference.

      Re: peeee4

      Fiddle and I have had dealings with Liam Paulus from Prosperity4 in the past.

      We like him but we don't like the company.

      We won't be promoting Prosperity4 on our new website because we don't believe they offer contractors the best umbrella service at the best price. This is a shame as we would have earned considerably more commission to sell prosperity4 than the other umbrella companies we are currently in negotiations with.

      Over time we are aiming to promote the best products we can find in each area of contractor operation and contractor finance. We want to maximise commission but the quality of the product is our prime consideration. If we can't reach a deal with the best available we will exclude that product from our portfolio.

        Nice to hear that!! Seems to me that some umbrella companies forget who pays their wages! No excuse for bad service

            P4 _ Liam

            It would appear that Liam Paulus works for both P4 and Ryder Consulting (IT agency) as he is down as the contact on both their websites!

            A nice guy and able to hold down 2 jobs at the same time...unless Ryder the agency and P4 the umbrella are 1 and the same.

              Re: P4 _ Liam

              ain't google grand

              He is a nice guy but from comments on here a number of contractors have had problems of one sort or another with P4.

              How much of the blame for that lies with P4 and how much with the contractors is what you really need to research and so far we've only seen the contractor side of things.
