    Thinking of switching from Nixon Williams after 11 years. Trying to decide between Broome Affinity and Gorilla. Had a quick response from Alan at BA yesterday, still no response from Gorilla

    Document management

    Looks like WSS / MOSS both need a paid MS licence, though they have a 180 day demo. Any other non-web based options?

    Overpayment by umbrella company - now they want refund 2 years later

    I had a similar problem with JSA in that they thought they had overpaid me and took the money from subsequent payroll runs. When I looked at their figures they had managed to miss a complete week from their paperwork. When I pointed it out, they said that this was not possible. I calmly talked...

    Election and Income Tax

    With some parties advocating a local income tax to replace council tax, will those taking a low salary and the rest in dividends be better off, as the income tax will only apply to the salalry and not the dividends?

    JSA Ltd Services

Customer Service was good so long as your question required a standard answer, but as soon as you required some thought to be put in the shortcomings were obvious.

    Notice for leaving as company director

    I'm "waiting" for them to sort out an overpayment query for me - in that they say they overpaid me, claimed the money back, then I've proven that the pay was correct in the first place. I say "waiting", but most of it is hoping that they will actually bother to return my calls. Their...

    Notice for leaving as company director

    First post for me, so be gentle! I'm planning on leaving JSA/Chorus and starting my own Ltd using one of the accountants who post on here, as they seem to be quite well thought of. Does anyone know how much notice you have to give to leave as a director of a company run by JSA? Darren
