Just to follow on from Lisa's comment.
The only real difference you should see when comparing 'correctly structured' umbrella companies is their fee.

Yes you can take home 80,90 or even 100% of your earnings - the most typical ways are to claim for expenses that you haven't incurred (although this does tend to aggravate HMR&C and you are likely to find yourself paying back far more than you managed to fiddle) or living on 3 shillings and sixpence a week and putting the rest of your earnings into a pension. You could also try using a 'scheme' which a 'leading QC' will have looked at - unfortunately this also aggravates HMR&C (please refer to point 1).
If you are tax resident in the UK and live in the UK and work through a compliant umbrella company you will be paid through PAYE and you will be able to claim certain costs that you incur as expenses provided that you have a receipt for them but your take home pay absolutely, definitely, categorically cannot be 'guaranteed' to be over 80%
