Did you know that if you are a PCG+ member, you can claim up to £1000 because an agency fails to honour the contractual arrangements? But only if the agency terminates the contract.Originally posted by suityou01 View PostThe contract expressly states that there is no d&c.
Then Clientco try and exercise some d&c and I flatly refuse and so the contract is terminated.Comment

If you actually read the article, it is very interesting. The final paragraph concludes:Originally posted by suityou01 View PostIR35: A Warning to End Users - Contractor Weekly
Increase in enquiries?
My last gig had over 160 contractors, who all filled in annual leave requests.

Looks like Hector is getting his act together at last, and fair play.

So you would have to decide to burn that contract bridge and claim, or not.So for those contractors that end up getting caught by IR35 because of incriminating end client evidence this may provide some succour and a way of damage limitation. It may also be a useful lever for those freelancers suffering an IR35 enquiry who are faced with an end client who is unenthusiastic about supporting them by providing valuable evidence about their working practices. Where however a contractor is still engaged by that end user during the time of enquiry then, quite understandably, that contractor may be reluctant to remind their client of the ramifications of being classed as a 'worker'."I can put any old tat in my sig, put quotes around it and attribute to someone of whom I've heard, to make it sound true."

From post experience what usually happens is those people with no direct access to PMO have to report their availability via the internal systems, consultants who have an external manager reporting availability directly into the PMO do not.
Is the problem the fact people treated you as a contractor while you think you are a Consultant....merely at clientco for the entertainmentComment

This is precisely the kind of glib complacent arrogance and stupidity that made me start the thread.
I spun this past my IR35 lawyers who said don't do it under any circumstances.
So then I could ignore them, invalidate my insurance, breach my contracted term and bare my arse to hector but I still have a brain.

I would have put money on WWIII starting before that happened.Originally posted by mudskipper View PostHector will have more important things to do once WWIII kicks off anyway.

P.s. Everytime I see the word Armageddon I think of this the gerbil story...

Or declare yourself inside IR35 and take the tax hit, if you were so convinced that you were inside IR35 on all three points.Originally posted by suityou01 View PostSo then I could ignore them, invalidate my insurance, breach my contracted term and bare my arse to hector but I still have a brain.
Instead, your brain (having allowed you to sign a contract which didn't give you the right of substitution and included a mutuality of obligation clause in it) said that you were better off leaving and earning nothing than staying and earning something.Comment
