    What does your contract say about change????????????????????

    FFS - you get paid for what you work. There is no work, there is no pay.

    Which is why a notice period is bollocks.

      I think these notice period clauses need to be reworded as a cancelation policy

      You try and pull out of most commercial agreements with zero notice and you will be charged for the privilege, I don't see why contractors should be any different.
      Your time has been booked to be with a client which means turning down other work. It is not unreasonable to expect some sort of recompense for the loss of business.
