Agencies Lie

[northernladuk]

Why not get put forward at £425, nail the interview, get offered the role and then accept at rate of £500?

You like to live and play hard lol...

Hopefully the OP has done the right thing, put his foot down and caught the agent with his hand in the cookie jar. We'll know if a boomed thread appears.

Agent: How much would you work in Bradford for?
Me: £350/day
Agent: OK, I'll get you over

Gets interview, walks it, offered job when I get home.
Agent: What's the lowest you would work in Bradford for?
Me: £350/day
Agent: OK, they'll go to £250 max.
Me: I'm very pleased for them. <click>

It wasn't Bradford that he mentioned but not far off; just thought that most people wouldn't have heard of the actual location (which turns out to be a further 20 minutes drive into the hills past Bradford!)

Bandit country.
is that a distant duet of banjos...?

You would want an extra £50PD danger money, then

Yes it was more a rant rather than advice and just hitting myself on the head, I didn't push for an email confirmation on the rate they put me forward on.

Get a call recorder app on your smartphone and don't worry about confirmation emails.
