    I couldnt survive without agencies I dont think..Id say about 85% of my contracts

    If there is ever going to be a payment dispute, it is 90% of the time because I worked direct, with me anyway..As slimy as agencies are I feel safer with a third party in between

    Although they do sometimes lie about putting you forward to positions when they find someone cheaper instead, and some companies really do hate paying agencies, so maybe u could figure out a method

      100% for me. I've been contracting since I left university at the end of may 2010 on several projects with the same client through 1 agency.

      Almost at the point of going Ltd but it's a bit daunting & no idea where I might find extra work by myself let alone figuring out all I need to do to go Ltd!
