    Agency applied for strike off at companies house - does it makes contract void?

    Called the agent first thing in the morning. Now more confused than I was before. Long story short, the agent or owner, did not know that either because he sold the agency to another group, and was only dealing with his candidates on their behalf. He said he will get a new contract prepared from...

    Agency applied for strike off at companies house - does it makes contract void?

    I would send a letter tomorrow for sure and speak to the client as well, because if that's the case, I would rather don't work the remaining days and sit home than working and not getting paid. With regards to naming and shaming, it's very likely that any member of this forum ever heard of it...

    Agency applied for strike off at companies house - does it makes contract void?

    It's voluntary application to strike off, not due to overdue accounts. And interestingly this request has been suspended due to some objection by the registrar. My contract is ending in 2.5 weeks, so the amount company will owe me 28 days in total. I have dropped them an email and awaiting...

    Agency applied for strike off at companies house - does it makes contract void?

    The agency my contract is signed with have quietly applied for company to be struck off while I am still in contract with the client. Does that make contract between me and agency void? Including handcuff clause?

    Steep agency markup.. just a rant

    Absence of senior and reasonable members of this forum is strongly felt.:)

    Steep agency markup.. just a rant

    My line manager would occasionally compliment me in meetings by saying "that's why we pay you big bucks.." Which I always find strange as I might be on higher end in my UX industry, but it's kind of average rate. Once curiosity reached it's limits I asked him what exactly they are paying the...

    Legal question

    Actually XYZ Limited have different directors and ABC Limited director who I deal with is not in that list.. confusing. I cannot disclose the names on public forum but I can PM if you want. Technically my contract should be with ABC trading as XYZ Limited, No?

    Legal question

    XYZ Ltd is still trading and accounts are up to date on companies house website, however there is registration of charge and then satisfaction of charge last year, I have no idea what it is.

    Legal question

    My contract is with ABC company trading as "XYZ Limited". Then there is another company with "ABC Limited" own by the same guy. Now "ABC Limited" have gone in to an administration. My contract is signed by ABC trading as XYZ Limited. Does ABC limited company going in to administration effects...

    UX contractor and NDA

    As I mentioned earlier, it's not as simple as showing some screenshots or images. Imagine if you have designed a car, showing a photo of a car will make one look rather foolish. You will at least need to show some of the process and drawings. Otherwise anyone can take a screenshot and says I did it.

    UX contractor and NDA

    Exactly that what I have said... my managers seems to understand so hopefully they will retract the NDA or at least add the portfolio clause.

    UX contractor and NDA

    5 weeks to go until my extension comes. Gig has potential for at least 6 more months. It is probable that they may ask me to rejoin after the 2 months break. But still, not being able to show what I have done will never land me to the next gig, or even an interview. As a matter of fact, the...

    UX contractor and NDA

    It's actually a lot more than screenshots, I do fully functional prototypes of original product, very complex compare to the websites. And first thing recruiter asks is to show the links. Don't reckon this clause is in my contract, but I will review it once again. Exactly, if they would have...

    UX contractor and NDA

    It's sent by client directly to my work email, so no avoiding it. I have just responded asking them to add clause to allow me to use the work for portfolio purposes. If they don't I will refuse signing it. Just to confirm, if I don't sign it, I am not bound to the restrictions of not displaying...

    UX contractor and NDA

    Contract is with an agency, they pay the invoices. No mentioning of NDA in my contract. I haven't signed the NDA yet.
