Does "opting in" to conduct regs turn off clients/agencies?

[Lance]

I opted out for my upcoming role, first contract role for a few years.

Do most people opt out generally?

Depends how hard the agency push.

I had one agency, who when I said I won’t opt out, said fine and sent me an inside ir35 contract… I opted out.

Bet you didn't....

I guess not. Seeing as the client made me use that agency and I'd been with the client for 18 months at that stage, through a different agency, so the opt out wasn't worth the PDF it was on.

I signed it anyway. I only ever try and refuse out of bloody mindedness.
