    Argh, you can tell I typed that in between doing over things.....

    Just to clarify: accountants aren't always right you know!

          I've just found <snip> - it looks like a pretty new site. Lots of resources though, and not just for IT contractors like this site. I'd be interested to see if they get sued if agencies and dodgy accountancy/umbrella companies get bad reviews?

          They have a <snip> although it's nowhere near as active as this place.

            prehaps you should have posted this as a new thread - I can see lots of people here writing agency reviews.

              I only put it here as a few people were talking about other sites/forums... do you think it deserves its own thread?

                  I bet you're using firefox?

                  I've had that before with a site, can't remember which... I think I had to clear the cache. No idea why.

                    Correct, but the site "should" be compatible with all browsers

                      That whole farce about the Survey made me loose all actual respect for the site itself - which I used to hold in quite high regard.
                      I think they're probably getting massive back handers from various accountancies and agencies - which is such a betrayal..
                      I do hold the site in high regard. Not as high as I'd like to: we would all like to have a community, but CUK is just a business. I don't believe it's corrupt (once you accept that it is a business and not a community) though it makes some mistakes in its recommendations; we all do. DYOR, and neither reading CUK articles nor asking the posters is tantamount to having done your research (especially now that so many articles are just a précis of postings on the boards )

                      CUK is a business, not a community, but IMHO it's the best we've got. We are the community. That's why I still post here.
