    I got pumped for info by them a while back and posted it on here - haven't heard from them since.

    They are the lot the advertise for you to be on their "virtual bench".

    I just got a call from them, bar stewards not willing to cut their margin to accommodate my rate, "client is only willing to pay £x per day" he says! "ok bye" I said - well at least I can afford to whilst not on bench!

    I did. I was naive. But that was before I frequented CUK.

    WSS.

    They had said to me once that because I did not give them the 2 references, they were not going put me forward for a role. Also, barstewards, made me go to their office to fill up their mandtory application form.

    Eh?

    Wasn't me, only thing I want an agency to do is get me a job and pay me on time. Allegis did that perfectly well - just saying they're good from my experience, got absolutely no reason to say that and I've dealt with some right tulipe ones that I think the good ones are worth giving a thumbs up too.

    Tech Systems.
