    I was just suggesting possible reasons... Time of year can affect the availability of contracts but doesn't have to. I did clarify later on.

      But that implies that there might not be. I'm not having that.

              I haven't seen any PM contracts for quite a while now, most want you to start AM. Possibly if you get a WFH contract or working for a foreign client then they could be PM though...

                  We are not selling to consumers - we are a B2B business, and I'm sure you'll correct me if I'm wrong, but it is a requirement for VAT to be stated if you sell B2C AND B2B.

                    What does the legislation say?

                      advertisements from which all of your business is with business customers.
                      If you also conduct business at that outlet or through these advertisements
                      with consumers, however, VAT inclusive prices for all goods offered by traders
                      to consumers are required by the Price Marking Order"
