Just had a phonecall from these guys. There asking me if a contract in Germany, which starts on the 1st March is suitable. If I take the job they will charge me 240.

As malvolio said, it's illegal to charge work seekers for jobs. And I'd get them to confirm in writing that they wouldn't try to charge the agent commission on placing you.
And ask yourself - what exactly would they do that you wouldn't do when looking for work?
Now I'm sure that this company is above board.
But the business model I have described is parasitical...
And here's other people's experience...

Think they were offering to put me forward to multiple agencies for contract rolls... Was just heading out the door so didnt spend much time listening...
They will try to talk you in to either paying them a monthly subscription, or taking a percentage when you have a contract. Based on the calls I received, their reps make every agent I've ever talked to sound like model professionals.

Yes but apparently its a 12 month subscription of £239 after you have secured a contract.

They're cold call selling like fury, I'd imagine
Sounds to me like they just want to squeeze into the vacuum-sealed gap between you and the agent with the contract...

Sigh...
PS. Your sig might be quite appropriate in the instance.
