Tldr agency trying to pay on 28th day contract says 7
So basically chucked my line manager the line I will be leaving Friday 21 days after starting should have been on 7 day terms enquired several times as to am I on 7 day payment 14 days later still not paid.
Rings agency who says you won’t get paid your on 28 days
Pointed out contract email etc says 7 days
Agency guy goes away confirms yes on 7 days director has confirmed this and will get a chaps payment to you
Monday blows by
Today get email from agency saying due to the client not paying them on 7 days I won’t be on 7 days they have put me on 28 days
I Point out their payment terms with their client aren’t my problem ( but they are now)
Told director is very apologetic but nothing they can do
Then discover contractor sat next to me is on 7 days same agency and I found out because he heard the convo with the hiring guy
Three weeks in I am thinking the agency think I’m a bit too invested to walk on this one since also discovering today the role will be inside ir35 I am defininity happy to walk today, just feel bad for the company , nice company and it seems a bit off to just walk out not having given them much bang for their buck, you know it takes a week for them to get any useful output.
What the best course of action here in 25 years I’ve never been blagged this badly
