Sanzar

[Torran]

From their website under section headed "How does it work":

1.You become an employee of Sanzar Solutions
2.Complete your timesheet at the end of each billing period (monthly or weekly) and forward it by email to our administration team
3.Your agency or client is invoiced
4.As money arrives in our account, we pay you. This payment is typically transferred the same day, or via BACS if your bank is not yet able to receive same day faster payments.

You will be paid through PAYE, you won't pay Sanzar any fees and you will get 85% take home even on earnings over £100,000. And it is totally compliant with UK tax law.

I'll sell you some magic beans and flying pigs for £45 p/h. I'll add £20 delivery charge on top, which covers my costs as well.

It's not surprising they don't give away their secret method. If they did, and it does work then lots of other firms would start offering the same service, and if it doesn't work, those who know why not would quickly spread the word across the internet so anyone doing a Google search (or HMRC looking) would see.

I'm sure some of these schemes do enable people to get paid with minimal tax deducted, but there will be two reasons why:

1) it's really clever tax avoidance (as of course it is says on the tin) and HMRC haven't figured out a way to stop it yet, or more likely.

2) it doesn't legally work, but you don't pay any tax like they tell you to, and you get away with it for a while...in which case it's no different (except with higher admin fees) to simply being paid cash in hand for everything.

If you love risk, and very little worries you, then go for it...otherwise, I'd avoid like the plague.
