    1) Re-negotiate terms of your renewal.
    2) Moan like a bitch to us.

    Although you have opted for option 2 you still have a card you can play.. It's called negotiation.
    if you read ive asked for opinions on which would apply.

      If you read what you'd written, you'd see that at no point in this thread have you posed a question.

        Initial contract came with schedule which indicated rate and notice period. Notice period quoted was one week in first month and then 4 weeks after first month - for both parties.

        Agency have just issued me an extension/amendment with no notice period quoted - just a change of dates (new start date following on from end of last one, until end date). 8 weeks duration.

        Since no notice period is mentioned I'm guessing I can assume the one week notice ran from the beginning of the entire contract (i.e. is now passed) so now we're into 4 week notice even for extension. i.e. It doesnt start again - 1 week notice for first month etc.

        Hmm. 8 weeks duration I normally look at short notice period to be honest.
        Just curious. Have you ever had a contract you have not moaned about here?
