    Annoying for the small umbrella companies but perfectly understandable and better than the mess that would have otherwise occurred when poeple tried to use a tax advantagous / adventurous option.

    But please read https://www.contractoruk.com/forums/...-umbrella.html and ensure you pick a legitimate umbrella which is paying you correctly with everything appropriately taxed before it reaches your bank account or pension..
