That was the worst post I've ever made anywhere in my entire life - even from someone who lives in East Sussex

Definitely not - I am me.

Are you sure?

I am me too.

How is that possible?

Is it quantum tunnelling or sommat?

Seriously who falls for this tulip anymore, surely these snake oil salesmen should be dead in the water by now what with all that HMRC are up to w.r.t the EBT stuff etc.

There's a lot of contractors (who have never visited CUK) who still use these tulip schemes.
I obviously wouldn't touch their scheme with several barge poles tied together (being in HMRC's crosshairs as I speak) but was wondering about the blurb about agents, IR35, disguised self employment etc
My own advisor tells me that I won't be caught by IR35 but sometimes I get work through an agent.
Is this going to mean the end of getting work through an agent?

Just had a similar bunch of jokers contact me through CV-Library (Note to self: check 3rd party settings) only offering 90% though, poor effort I thought, there's a few out there offering 95%.

Our limited company plan will greatly increase your net returns as an alternative to corporation tax and dividend tax.

If you've decided that setting yourself up as a limited company is the best option for you, we will be able to help structure the profits to be more efficient than paying yourself a combination of salary and dividends. Don't worry, we'll support you every step of the way!

^^ FAIL !

No mention of using search at all. Or asking your accountant. I'm deeply disappointed.

I'm deeply ashamed.. Sorry.. <sniff>

As soon as it said 'this is brilliant' I moved on. The wording of these things often give them away.

Oh good - normally I only come to CUK for abuse or to be ignored so this will work well

It's a CUK Institution.

Although you could argue that CUK is an Institution in it's own right. It certainly has plenty of Inmates.

Thanks - I need something to do now I've got no work, in between all the DIY that Mrs F has lined up for me after a 3 year assignment.
I'm "Barry White" at DIY.
