Hello, new to the forum.

Am I missing something, the auditor report 'contractor care limited' (the company) ?

I'm new to being a contractor and went with payme as an umbrella a friend suggested them as the fees are low

Doubting this now though

the interesting thing about today's additions is that 2 of the firms are Contractor Care Ltd (you may recognise that name from previous threads) and PAYEme ltd that:

1) supposedly paying 3200 workers a week (not surprising as they were the only umbrella one of the agency invoicing finance firms insisted on using)
2) have a very interesting auditor report for their 2021 Accounts (just read the first line of the Auditor report) PAYEME LIMITED filing history - Find and update company information - GOV.UK (company-information.service.gov.uk)
