No, but i'm sure those working under an umbrella think of wages in hourly rates like that

Add to this the fact that they are going to allow us to buy hardware under expenses from 9th October but want us to pay for them when we leave Parasol. We are going to be charged up to 10% in 'administrative' fees to get our items ..

Is it just me or are Parasol trying to squeeze the contractors these days ?

In which case I've never heard of 'manager'. Stop wasting money on brollys and do it the proper way. Set up a ltd co. and get an accountant.

As for the otehr responces we get a lot of posters signing up, posting one message slagging of one brolly or agancy or some such and then never being heard from again. Your initial post looks a lot like that, hence the comments.

A bit more info on your situation will make you look more credible, rather than just saying their crap and want to use 'blah' instead.

I'm not best pleased about this. I'm not overly impressed with their customer service and this month they have over charged me far too much NI and depsite constant calls nothing seems to be getting done about it.

I'm thinking of switching over to 'manager' who only charge £40 a month. Anybody here with them?

Dunno why but when i see that I instantly think "Diptulip"....

Yup, gotten rather pricy now haven't they. My Limited is up and running and the next contract will be done 'proper'.

John Reid will sort this out. After a period of consultation With People Of All Faiths And Belief Systems.

P.S ... And facing in all directions.
