It was quite an interesting role but low rate and in Wales so hotels for me, I emailed back and said I want xxx times 2 and then prepared to forget it. Within an hour agent was on the phone putting me forward. Still don't want to go that far but now the rate is tempting

Manz is worried that talking to an agent could form a verbal contract for that agent to exclusively represent the contractor to the client.
It is possible that the agent is on a preferred suppliers list and the "NO AGENTS" message means "NO AGENTS other that the ones who we already deal with".
Apply through the agent and if you get nothing after a few days then apply direct....Free advice and opinions - refunds are available if you are not 100% satisfied.Comment
