    No notice option for contractor

    That's exactly why I asked the question ... the potential 'untenable' aspect.

    No notice option for contractor

    Think I'll just stay where I am. :cheers: ... Barclays doesn't sound great anyway.

    No notice option for contractor

    So they can treat you how they want, and legally require you to finish the contract? By the way... good points on Barclays and low rates. You psychic?

    No notice option for contractor

    True - bad analogy, though :wink ... currently having building work done and believe me, builder could walk off site whenever they want. Slow down, fill your site with people... whatever they want. I get your point though... fair enough. I'm not looking to bail, but having not seen it before...

    No notice option for contractor

    3-6 months. It's a BA role. I would be sub-contracted to the end client by an IT services provider.

    No notice option for contractor

    Currently looking at a contract where the client insists on them having a 7 day notice period (standard so far), but the contractor has no notice option, i.e. in their words the contractor "must complete duration of contract" What are people's thoughts on that kind of clause? Presumably, if you...

    Ecron Management Services

    So was that a yes or a no iliketax? Could you be a little more definitive? :rollin::rollin:

    Ecron Management Services

    Welll... if loads of people were using them with no problems, I'd consider it more seriously. Clearly I'll be avoiding this based on initial feedback :) Thanks malvolio

    Ecron Management Services

    I've been contacted by a company called Ecron Management Services promising to pay me up to 86% of my contract value. (warning bells ring in my head) Is what they are promising legit? Or a dodgy scheme that will put my in HMRC's cross hairs? I am operating a Ltd company, contracting my...

    Want to break current contract to work elsewhere

    :D Believe it or not... I have actually taken breaks during that time. I know the stereotype is of a contractor works every day possible, but that's not me. I have to have a holiday now and again. Keeps me sane. And while the business bank account as a few £100s less in it, it's worth it imo.

    Want to break current contract to work elsewhere

    Thanks for the replies. I am on good terms with current client, hence 4+ years and counting. If I do get offered the other role I'll obviously offer to work my notice here. Was just interested to hear if others had done this and what their experience was. The project I'm on (which is the only...

    Want to break current contract to work elsewhere

    Hi All. First time posting here and a (probably) really elementary question... I've been on my first ever contract for the last 4+ years (permanent employment whole career up to then) and I may now be looking to leave. If I get the gig I went for, I'll be wanting to terminate my current...
