Does anyone use Fleming Laing?
Without knowing the full details, I don't really get how people comment on "if its legal or not" Would you provide a review on a BMW if you owned a Merc? No - because you wouldn't have the knowledge/experience of the drive etc :mad An opinion is a belief or judgment that rests on grounds...- wacky77

Coming back after 5 years
Doubtful IR35 will apply if its only three months and your not planning on extending past that - that's not really long enough for them to determine if you look like an employee or not.

Clearsky accounting (formerly Quay) - price hike
Obvious one - but chartered. What services they provide and what they don't so you are clear from the start. How many contractors do they actually deal with? Get proper advice on IR35 - yeah it will cost you but you can offset it as a business expense. Trust me its worth it in the long run...- wacky77

Anyone heard of Templar Management?
BN66 is in ref to double taxation of self employed people in an Isle of Man Partnership using profits at 0% - basically trying to avoid paying their UK tax. This is tax evasion - retrospective back tax for up to 6 years on that one. Tax avoidance is perfectly legal as long as you are operating...- wacky77

Can i be tempted for a contract?
Swings and roundabouts really. Whats a pro for one may be a con for another. Pro Money - you have the opportunity to earn a lot more of it, not only in day rate but also in tax breaks :wink Experience - trust me there is no boredom, can be fast paced but you learn to cope and stretch your own...- wacky77
