Are you allowed to bad mouth agencies or umbrella companies on here? I am going through a really bad experience and feel like the world of contractors should know.

Try it, and see if the moderators take it down!
I've seen some posts removed, and some left - most people seem to like a "name and shame", and you're unlikely to find too much backing for an umbrella company on here... -

I hope proper evidence will be presented.
I once saw a post on another site bad mouthing an agency I was working with. The agency was one of the best I had worked for. Their side was contractor was totally useless - bad technically and could not get on with people. The client had sacked them - the contractor got paid full notice period but they wanted a contract for life!
I am sure we have all met the odd contractor like this. And I am not going to say that agents are perfect either.

The problem is that everyone has different experiences. I found Giant great, but have heard from some agencies they were "awful". Equally I had Parasol recommended to me but found them pretty poor in comparison to Giant.
Hmmmm.Comment
