    InTouch Accounting Service Decline?

    I've been with InTouch for two years now and always found them extremely helpful. Their portal is intuitive and easy to use meaning the time required to input my monthly data is smaller. This time of year is busy for the reasons Craig mentions but then I'm sure most accountants who provide this...

    Training Costs

    I'm interested in this thread as I'm considering doing a PRINCE2 course (I'm a PM) funded by my Ltd co. Like TOGAF this is merely a structured framework but provides an accreditation that can provide future work. If agents are searching for key terms like TOGAF or PRINCE2, irrespective of...

    Agencies I would recommend working through.

    I've got to add ITHR to the list. Old school in a way in that I get calls from my agent on a monthly basis asking to take me to lunch for a catch up and see how things are. The personal touch is no longer heard of. As such I'm willing to help refer people for other roles he has going, even to...

    Hi, I live in Poole and after permie jobs ar Barclays and JPMorgan went contracting (thanks JPM for the push). I've had one contract at Ordnance Survey in Southampton for 2 years, then back to JPM to do the job they pushed me from for a year and I'm now back in Southampton. It's a commute of...

    Which agencies provide contract resource to JP Morgan in Bournemouth?

    Try Networkers International, Modis or HAYS IT. I'm here at the moment and all very depressing after their lack of bonus payments, no pay rises, etc. But they'll always find something to whinge about! Apart from that it seems like they have a lot in the pipeline, which could be ripe for...

    rate cut when does it come into effect?

    Hi all, Try and follow me here, but looking for some advice. Original contract on rate x was May to 1st Dec. Renewal agreed from 2nd Dec to 29th Feb at rate y (an increase on x). Notice served that 10% rate cut would be effective 1st Jan. Reluctantly agreed. Now the dilemma. The agency have...

    InTouch fees going up

    Although I'm not over the moon with a price increase I see no reason in leaving for the sake of £10 a month. As others have stated the service is excellent and the portal is extremely user friendly. I'll be staying put for now.

    ClearSky vs. inniAccounts vs. InTouch to start going contracting

    I moved from Clearsky to InTouch mainly based on costs. I didn't feel I was using my accountant enough to justify the amount, after all I'm just a one man band so quite a simple setup. The InTouch online portal is so easy to use and probably takes me 10 mins a month to update. They have always...

    First time ltd company - advice?

    Hi all, I'm fairly new to contracting but have loved it so far and can see myself doing this for a while (unless market goes pear shaped!!). I started with umbrella company but am not going down my own ltd route. Have set the wheels in motion and have appointed Clearsky as my accountants. I...
