I've been d1cked around beyond belief by Square One and an agent with the initials SR. I can't be bothered going into it but I'd avoid Square One like the plague.

the annoying thing about them is they have quite good clients and a lot of roles....
I did a year through them at a good rate with only a mildly shaky start although i think at the end of the were part of the reason the whole contract folded.
There are no agents I would "avoid" currently, I think that would only come if invoices weren't paid, just some I treat with utter distrust. Square One are currently top of that list, or rather one of their agents is (H.O.)
Er....
P.S. Why not give the references if you're not that bothered. It's not really a biggy is it, I'd dig a bit first though.Comment

Still waiting
I went for an interview 3? or 4? years ago organized by Square One. Phoned 'em up afterwards as requested. 'So how did I do?' Iasked. 'We'll phone you back' they said.
Still waiting for the call from these ignorant, rude, useless people. Agent's initials were TH btw (now departed)Comment
