    Not vey impressed with InTouch

    I don't mind the banter and don't care what some random frootcake thinks about me or my question. Again, this was only my review of the service I received and I followed up in post#40 here.

    Not vey impressed with InTouch

    As others have rightly pointed out that YMMV. I got the recommendation for InTouch from this forum, with multiple 'happy chappy' customers decribing them to be ultra excellent and how it has been a match made in heaven. I did not find them to be good when they made mistake even after pointing...

    Thanks NLUK!!:music:

    Thanks NLUK for bumping this thread. :banana::yay: All my points are valid, (1) It is not unreasonable to expect your accountant to claim a certain refund for you if you have already pointed it out to them and agreed with them. If they fail to do it even after this then will you be happy? (2)...

    Can I claim Caravan stay as an expense?

    My question is also about claiming the mileage if you read it again. This forum can get really cuddly at times but I don't mind.:hug:

    Anyone had a Harvey Nash contract IR35 reviewed lately?

    Did you manage to speak to them? What was the response? I had a contract through them last year and it passed Qdos' assesment without a fuss. I may have another one lined up from them, so am curious if they have changed something. Either ways, as soon as I mentioned to the agent that I will...

    Can I claim Caravan stay as an expense?

    It turned out that the start date of my new contract coincided with the half term dates, the little one doen't want to sit at home and as I had to pay for temporary accomodation anyway for myself (hotel, B&B etc..), I decided to book a Caravan for the working week a few miles away from the...

    Basic advice when running your own Contractor business

    I guess by 'employment contract' you don't mean permanent employment. If yes, then I received very similar advice, the explanation was that even if you don't have a contract you are working as a company director to find a new contract, so you must pay yourself a salary. Not sure if this is...

    Not vey impressed with InTouch

    Thanks to all for your comments interlaced with humour and keen sense of looking down upon others. It is a common theme on this forum, so no surprises :ladybags::ladybags: Yes, It is a moan and a winge and a gripe and a complaint. And, yes I am not happy. But, I do have some valid points to...

    Not vey impressed with InTouch

    I have been with InTouch for nearly an year now and joined them after finding positive recommendations here. But, my experience has with them has been very ordinary. My PAYE payment to HMRC was not adjusted with the refund due from HMRC and I had a torrid time asking questions about this, this...

    how do I get the "working practices" reviewed or signed-off?

    how do I get the "working practices" reviewed or signed-off? I guess, these have to be signed-off by the end client and not the agency I am dealing with? Is this correct? Is there a document to be signed for "working practices", is there a template?

    Capita CL1 government contract - should I take it

    Really useful responses..Thank you All. I can get the contract reviewed by Qdos or B&C. But, how do I get the "working practices" reviewed or signed-off? I guess, these have to be signed-off by the end client and not the agency I am dealing with? Is this correct? Is there a document to be...

    Capita CL1 government contract - should I take it

    Are you dealing with Capita directly, or is there an agency involved?

    Capita CL1 government contract - should I take it

    Is it due to high risk of IR35 or something else?
