So this is the 7th week of working (direct) for ClientCo and I still don't have a contract. Delay in getting started due to company house upgrade, so was two weeks in before LtdCo was set up, so really couldn't do much before then.
Day after I got LtdCo set up I emailed my contact a nice IR35 friendly contract (I'm working remotely). My contact cancelled the 'catch up' calls we had scheduled, so no chance to chase - two weeks later I found she'd left the company. So I emailed the contract to the big cheese and he mailed back saying he'd passed to someone else to finalise. So I've chased other chap twice, been into office to meet new contact and mentioned to him, and sent another friendly reminder to big cheese.
Don't think there's anything untoward happening - they're all just really busy - but not sure how much of a problem this is - should I be pushing harder, phoning daily and generally making a pain of myself until it gets done? Am keen to keep relations sweet, as I'm enjoying the work, and hoping there might be more in the future!
