Thanks all - I knew they sounded like a bunch of tools.

Still, if it comes off....£550 at home, no expenses.....they'd have to be REALLY tulipe!

I appreciate all the responses though.

They're an agency, I dont know where they're based like (the guy I spoke to was an Aussie, so I'm guessing London based!)

They are putting me forward for a CapGemini contract up here in sunny Newcastle, and in reading the small print of their first email it basically said by replying to the email I was confirming that I would not let any other agency represent me for a CapGemini job for the next 6 months!!!

Cheeky feckers! Like I'm going to agree to that!

I went for an interview for a contract with them once. Guess what, Anson McCade, I never will again.

I second that. My current client have outsourced their IT infrastructure to them. It is a huge mistake in my opinion.

Them and Cap Gemini sound like they are made for each other

No much more than "reply to this and you can't use anyone else" which is a bit unrealistic.

Just a tad.

Such a restriction that is not accepted by both parties explicitly won't be looked at favourably by the courts.

Put at the bottom of your e-mails. By replying to this you agree to a 0% commission and pass all the money onto me.

Schweet.
