Possibly this is just too obvious/already covered by employment law for them to have to state it? But this being said, my agent didn't know the answer...

I'm still wondering whether PAYE might be simpler, but I have a question I can't get an answer on from my agency.
The net pay amount they have quoted for PAYE is lower than the umbrella net pay - however - it doesn't include holiday. When I add the holiday pay I would accrue each day on PAYE, I get a better net pay for PAYE.
What I don't understand is what happens if I don't take any holiday, which is possible on a shortish contract.
Can anyone explain how this works? Would I still get the unused holiday pay back at the end of the contact? This would be a 'PEO' solution.
Thank you.

Need to make a quick decision on an umbrella
Hiya
I'm being given the option of PAYE or umbrella by a new client and need to decide on which route to take ASAP. It seems that umbrellas will give me a better take home pay, but I'm wary of them having been burned by dodgy ones in the past.
The client in question has a list of approved suppliers and I've heard of a few of them which is good...I think I have it down to a few contenders but can anyone give me a really quick 'yay or nay' on any if you have RECENT experience of any of the following:
- Giant
- Parasol
- Clearsky
- Contractor Umbrella
- Amaze
