Agency and 3 month contract
Well finally got there, and they have paid me for the weeks notice. Sent a letter in October, and they responded on the last day, more phone calls etc, and today they have issued the payment for the full weeks notice. (They still would not give me a copy of the contract though) I got Employment...- bobsp

Agency payments, or not...
I have tried the email route, they will not accept it, neither do they accept paper/signed timesheets. The only method they do accept is the online method supplied by Unanet. Whilst my PM agrees the days worked, the agency have an agreement with their client they can and must not make payments...- bobsp

Agency payments, or not...
Well my agency have just told me regardless of the 2003 regs, there is an agreement between their client (where I am on site) and themselves that no contractors are to be paid until the timesheet is signed off, so they dont have to pay me until they have the signed timesheet atall. As it is...- bobsp

Agency payments, or not...
Well they still have not paid, and are saying they are not paying me until they have the completed timesheet. I have sent them the links on the 2003 Regs, They still are adamant they wont pay until t/s is received. They say they have never done before and will not be doing so. Grr.... :ladybags:- bobsp

Agency payments, or not...
I don't think I am getting carried away. I have been without a contract for a while, and now got a good one, why should these agencies mess people about with payments. I have some financial commitments to catch up with, which I have under control, until things like this happen. It may well be an...- bobsp

Agency and 3 month contract
Ok I am not going to call them anymore on this matter, I will send a letter giving them 14 days notice. We will see. They admit they have failed on the basics on a number of things but refuse to pay the weeks notice. I have seen an old colleagues contract (they do do them!!) and it has a weeks...- bobsp

They are still (just got off the phone) saying until they receive a timesheet, they WILL NOT pay me, and it is up to me to ensure theu get it, not them. They claim the legislation states that they have to pay...- bobsp

Agency and 3 month contract
Hmm, ok guys thanks. Yes I was shafted on that one. They claim the reason I had to start before I got the contract is because their client needed ne a week early, and that they were getting the contract out to me. I have also been told in the past by someone at the agency they do have the...- bobsp

Agency and 3 month contract
I wonder if anyone can help. I was given a 3 month fixed contract with the hours of 7:30 – 16:30. I was asked to start early, ( a week early) and was also asked if I could do 07:00 – 18:00 for an initial period. I asked what this initial period was and was told 2-3 weeks. This was with the...- bobsp
