Doesn't really help you, but I'm with PSR + Clarity (at the moment) and they paid me yesterday.

Well you're not being TUPEd I guess as you have a 'choice' of employers. The email I got say that Giant will honour your current rate on their basic package though. Given my experience with them before though, I'll be going somewhere else.

I am guessing it's a PSR contract. I've had similar telling me that they are only now prepared to work with Giant, Brookson or Paystream, and *really* pushing hard for me to pick Giant. Unfortunately I've used Giant before and they were awful, so it's probably back to Paysteam for me.

Maybe I've just been lucky, but 40 months.
I've never really been out of work when I've wanted it, but I've been flexible on rates when the market has tanked, and continuously trained myself. What are all you folks who've been out for 6 months+ specialising in?
