Agency payment terms issues (Legal)
Thanks again, I have asked the end client if they stipulate weekly pay and they quite rightly state that the arrangement is with the vendor (the agency).

I asked because the agency are withdrawing the offer if I don't accept their terms. They have already emailed stating that I have to accept by lunchtime or lose the contract. They also do pay weekly for other contractors on their books- Eggnchips

Agency terms restriction of Trade ?
Hi I recently applied for a contract role, did the usual telephone and face to face interview and was offered the post. The agency called and informed me and started talking about a start date. I then mentioned that I had been weekly paid for 12 years through a range of agencies. I was then told...- Eggnchips
