Moving from Umbrella to Ltd Co

[pleomax]

Edit: Actually, maybe I'm being a little rash - was this a client or agency's system that you had to enter your hours in? If so, I suppose it could be difficult for them out of all the people on their books to know that you DID work that week.

Would be interesting either way.

This was the brollys system, and what also anoyed me was when i chased my "Account Handler" at brolly they told me to go chase the agency myslef. Oh how silly of me I have a dog and growl at the postman myslef!

The brolly was good as I was new to contracting and now on my second contract and a little wiser and found more information (This site for one), I feel taht i am being less then efficient in what i am doing.

Does anyone on this site use their spouse as a day to day administrator and be ina postion to recommend an accountant that is contractor friendly and offers reduced rates for reduced work?

Thanks

P.S Any one want to quess which brolly i am with?

Quay accounting offer a "end of year" accounts package, or any local accountant may be able to do it for you.

To top it all now they have finally paid me the final amount from my previous contract and the holiday fund I have accrued has magically disapeared!!!!!!

To say steam is coming out of my ears is an understatement.!!!!!

To-Do List......
1. Set up Ltd Co
2. Kick brolly co into touch
3. Let the wife do the paperwork

Someday/Maybe......
Get rich and live happly ever after......

And now further from them not paying my holiday fund at the end of that contract I get this in reply when i chased.....

"I have authorised your holiday fund of £X to be released for payment tomorrow. This will hit your account on Monday. A P45 will follow. "

Words fail me, I am still contracting through them why the hell do i need a P45?????????
