Contract mess - advice needed please!

I've never used one, hence I don't know this.

But isn't opting out totally irrelevant if you use an umbrella? You're an employee of them so opting out isn't an option.

No. The agency conduct is to protect you from the agents whatever your engagement method. AWR will apply if an umbrella is used. Found this article which actually covers both.
