You are welcome. Read your contract properly next time and good luck on your IR35 investigation.

I know but it was an urgent role and I was on the bench for a few weeks as one huge American company pulled out the gig after 6 weeks

So you are saying there is no clause about termination period and notice? If that was the case then you can't give notice. If they are allowing a 1 month period then I'd accept that because the contract sounds like they don't have to.
They have to pay you for the time worked but they can also sue you for breach of contract. They are just skipping a couple of steps and keeping hold of your money which is wrong but to be expected.
Why on earth did you start without you contract sorted first? You'll never get it altered once you've started.
Aren't you now worried you've done a contract that is effectively inside but accounted for it being outside so the agent not paying you is the least of your worries?Last edited by northernladuk; 28 July 2016, 15:10.

No termination length in contract
Hi
I tried to resign from my contact and the agency is trying to get 1 month notice period which they have with the client.
I checked my contract and now date stated then in she duke 1 document.
That document doesn't mention anything either. I checked all provided documents and nowhere any timeline of notice period. I had an ir35 check on the contract and it failed several times and they still haven't provided a ir35 proof contract.
As I am not accepting a one month notice the are considering not to pay me.
What are my rights in this case?Tags: None
