May I first say thank you for any potential replies.
I wonder if anyone can offer advise.
I have just finished an IVA
, I have the completion certificate and am no longer on the insolvency register.
This was an early settlement after 3 years, from my redundancy money so the IVA/defaults will still be all over my credit file.
I am looking to contract as a PM in London.
My questions are...
Which umbrella companies do you recommend?
What is the average retain these days from an umbrella company? 6 years ago I was retaining 80 percent, that was with 1500 miles a months.
I expect to earn (fingers crossed) 4-500 a day, so would a limited company be better?
If so would I be able to get a business account? My current bank account is with the coop who I know are IVA friendly on a personnel level at least.
Are employers more likely to credit check me if I am using a Ltd company opposed to a umbrella company?
What is the average retain on a Ltd company?
Anything else you can think of?
Kind Regards and thanks.
You will be ripped off by umbrella companies. An alternative could be a limited company run by you mum or best friend.

But if that is the case you will be involving your friends in your business which isn't a good idea and having someone related that isn't your spouse which is also a bad idea so both only options if absolutely everything else fails imo.Originally posted by Paddy View PostYou will be ripped off by umbrella companies.
