And the Project Manager working for B left B the same week as me and is now working for C. So no conflict of interests there then.- Kevin1908

Client threatening to withold money
Further info. D and C are UK companies. B is based in the UK and the EU country concerned. Not sure if C is contracted to the UK arm of B or the other country.- Kevin1908

To add some clarity. If my Limited Company and I are E, E is in contract to the agent D. D are in contract to C. I complete a time sheet for C. C are in a consortium with B. C invoice my time to B. The ultimate client is A a public body. It is B saying to C that they will not pay for 2 weeks of...- Kevin1908

Client threatening to withold money
I have been working on a contract in an EU capitol. The job was full time for 2 months dropping to 3 days a week after 2 months for the rest of the year. This was sold as being located out of the UK with all expenses paid. Having been on the job for the 2 months full time the company announced...- Kevin1908

Limited Company claiming expenses
The expenses amount to £1900. The software I was loaned costs £1500 and the agency wants me to pay back the overpayment of £1000 due to imposing claiming expenses over fixed enhanced rate. So the way I look at it I am £600 in credit that I can use as a bargaining chip.- Kevin1908

Limited Company claiming expenses
Well I agree that it is not my problem except I am not the one getting paid so in a large way it is my problem. I agree that since the contract between my limited company is with the agent then the agent is in breach of contract for not paying the agreed enhanced rate. (under pressure from "C")...- Kevin1908

Limited Company claiming expenses
I have worked as a contractor through a limited company for many years on a straight hourly rate. When it has been necessary to claim expenses, the last time was 20 years ago my company claimed the expenses plus VAT. Recently I have been waiting for a new contract to materialise. The client...- Kevin1908

Company Insurance
A few points in reply. Why would the client take me to court for screwing up. All my work is vetted and then goes out under the the name of the Project Manager. It isn't as if I am personally signing off the construction of a bridge or the commissioning of a railway signalling system. I don't... -

Company Insurance
I have just started a contract at very short notice. The client had somebody leaving and I was not working so to get a hand over I started without an interview or seeing the contract. This was only supposed to be a 3 month job. After submitting my first time sheet the payroll dept of the agency... -

HMRC RTI
I really can't understand it. I can try again. A year ago when I got the new computer I tried to down load it but it would only install an update but since it wasn't acually there it wouldn't work. HMRC said they don't do CDs any more. I managed to find the original CD, installed it, did all the...- Kevin1908

HMRC RTI
So how does Basic Tools run then. I used to run this on XP until my lap top gave up. On the new Windows 7 lap top it doesn't work. If this is the tool that HMRC is expecting me to use then shouldn't it be compatible with the PCs that 99.9% of people are using. I asked if they could give me...- Kevin1908

HMRC RTI
Anybody got any concerns about this starting in April. I can't get the Basic Tools to work and HMRC Help Desk is useless. They just say that Basic Tools is not designed to work with Internet Explorer, how useful is that.- Kevin1908
