Just updating my own thread here, did the 3 months contract up to Christmas on PAYE through the agency which worked out okay, always paid on time expenses paid after submission great stuff.
Took another 6 months FTC contract with another trust (after being asked if I was interested by a former boss) this is direct with the trust (no agency involvement) this one is not so good, firstly I have had to pay pension contributions to the NHS at 9% I realized this to late to opt out so my take home is not as expected, lesson learned PAYE through Agency YES, PAYE direct - NO
