    Thank you so much everyone. Yes, there’s a lot going on but that’s how I ended up in this position, burying my head in the sand! really appreciate you bringing me back to reality. I’ll ring CH on Monday and talk to them so I understand exactly where I stand and what happens next. Hopefully I...

    Please help! Late filing Companies House accounts twice

    Hi everyone, hope you’re all ok, I haven’t been around for a couple of years as I stopped using my company and went through some health (physical and mental) issues. During this time I was late filing accounts (twice). My fault. Not looking for any sympathy, deserved the fines. However the...

    SJD Contact number

    a) I have paid some tax. Not convinced it's the right amount - yes it's my responsibility, that's why I PAY an accountant b) I have spoken to HMRC and they've extended the deadline for me and other SJD victims c) Other than my decision to use SJD, I am not an idiot, so please don't speak to me...

    SJD Contact number

    OP... did you manage to get hold of anyone? I haven't had a response since last Tuesday and they haven't submitted by Self Assessment! I contacted someone via Facebook last night as a last resort and got an almost instant reply saying someone would call me, but they haven't. Definitely time...

    So Confused - Left Field Offer - WWYD?

    Thanks, all, for humouring my frazzled little brain. I've named my price and will wait and see. I've refused a perm arrangement with TCS and told them I'd want a fixed term contract instead. Worst case scenario(s): a) They/client say no; b) They/client say yes, I take it, don't like and...

    So Confused - Left Field Offer - WWYD?

    Since Sept '16 - 2 different role types on 3 different projects in 3 different locations... but put through as extensions because it was easier for the client and I was too stupid to realise that was a bad idea at the time. :emb

    So Confused - Left Field Offer - WWYD?

    Any thoughts on this bit of my post? This would be my preferred option to be honest but... ugh.

    So Confused - Left Field Offer - WWYD?

    The end client seems to be driving this - I'd bin them once the contract was up. Not on here, no, but one of the guys I just spoke to has been with them for 16 years and hasn't a bad thing to say.

    So Confused - Left Field Offer - WWYD?

    Please be gentle - I don't know anything about the issue I'm about to explain and I am happy to admit as much! :emb Tomorrow is my last day with my current client. I refused to switch outside-to-inside due to their blanket ban on PSCs. Nothing has been said other than thanks for your work...

    Any clue how many of your fellow contractors are going inside?

    Not true - I haven't and a fair few fellow contractors here have refused to take the risk, too.

    A Sad “IR35” Day

    I am taking exactly this approach. I've been offered an extension until 31st March, which I have declined as I think this screams "she's inside so she has to go!". I will bail in December and hope I find something else, either permie or brolly, next year. It's scary how little LBG understand...
