PII -US client
Working directly for a US client (through brolly), and need PII that covers me for the US. Most places seem to have specific exclusion on cover for the US, anybody know of a company that has a policy that will cover the US? I am working from home in the UK, but client is US based. Ta ABB- ABB

'Accidental' contracor seeking umbrella
Just to update, I did find a couple that can accept and bill in US$, one of whom could not insure the contract ('anywhere except US'), the other can do everything bar PII, so I'll need to get that separately. I was quite surprised at how many could not cope at all, and one that gave me the...- ABB

'Accidental' contracor seeking umbrella
@YasmineHugeiIII Yes, I think that's the best I can hope for, rather than some arbitrary rate set by the Umbrella for the duration of the contract. I can't see any way to mitigate the currency problem. If I price my labour in Sterling,then the client has a variable cost, if I price it in...- ABB

Rate lowered halfway through contract

'Accidental' contracor seeking umbrella
Well I used this one One might surmise it either generates a random number, or at least attempts to incorporate some of the things you mention above. Do you know of a better one? ABB- ABB

Working in England
Hint on improving your English cheaply - Listen to English radio first thing in the morning whilst you are still half asleep. Get English TV (satellite) and you have the words and pictures together. I did both of these whilst working in France - after a couple of months you suddenly find you...- ABB

'Accidental' contracor seeking umbrella
I was referred here from another forum, as I find myself in an unusual(ish) situation. About a week ago what I knew about contracting would have fitted neatly on the back of a stamp, now it might fill half a postcard, so apologies in advance for the numpty questions I will be asking. I am...- ABB
