Umbrella company qs about income and claims

Forced to choose an Umbrella company is this legal
It's actually VERY rare for an agency to receive a kickback from an umbrella company, indeed with many of the large agencies, it's actually an act of gross misconduct for any member of staff to receive an inducement from an umbrella company. The days of £50 per referral from an agency are...- brollyman

which brolly company has the cheapest admin fees...?
Hear Hear! Hear Hear! Not sure if I'm allowed to advertise.... but I (and a small group of industry professionals) founded Springboard Umbrella last year. There you go - I'm out in the open now!

£20?? Are you sure? £20?? Are you sure? I'd be checking the small print if I were you. In their application pack they quote their net fee as £10.51 after tax relief for a higher rate tax payer. By my reckoning, that means their weekly fee is nearer £27 which is about the same charged by...- brollyman

You get what you pay for... You get what you pay for... "There is nothing in life that some man can do a little cheaper or do a little worse.....those who consider price only are this man's lawful prey" The moral - don't decide based on price alone, the cheaper umbrellas may charge extra for...- brollyman

The world's fastest pc
Does anyone know where I can find some software that will tell me how many Gigaflops my PC is running at??? I have built a pretty high end system at home which over 2300 last time I ran the Custom PC benchmark but I would love to know how it compares in terms of calculations per second..... -

I'm sure I'm showing my age now, but the first single I bought was "Are Friends Electric" by Gary Numan and Tubeway Army in 1979.... Cost me about 47p from W H Smiths! -

quantum of solace
I watched it last night and thought it was pure escapism in the true Bond style.... The best thing about it was seeing two Alfa Romeo 159s destroyed in the first 10 minutes, though how anyone could believe that they could have kept up with an Aston without having to make regular detours to the...
