breaching agency non-disclosure agreement, as a counter-threat..consequences...
ok so even if I did 'opt-out' whatever the hell this means, I could still challenge the decision in court? It just sounds a little incredible to me that a contractor could work for a month, pay £400 in travel expenses and £100 on lunch etc, complete the work, and all could be thrown in the...- keitho

Hopefully my episode from hell is now over after the recruitment agency have decided to pay me, but it got me thinking Basically the company I worked for, through the agency, they had this 'top secret' product, which would interest a lot of people.

Recruitment Agency/Client attempting to not pay me, because they dont like animation
I did and the recruitment agency changed their tune a little bit...it went from 'maybe we can't pay you', to 'we will pay you what we can get from them', to which I replied 'it is not optional, you need to pay me the full amount according to your own contract'...should be an easy win if I do...- keitho
