    In case it can be useful to people in the same situation ...

    Had to choose an Umbrella company and wanted to be paid on my Italian account. Asked:

    contractorumbrella:
    would have liked to use them given the very useful advice I found from them on this forum and other sites, and the very quick and good response I got by mail (Jamie?), but my agency asked to use umbrellas in their PSL. As it's important for me to get this contract I did not go into confrontation on this, this time

    Parasol:
    flat no in real time chat. Based on the "tone" of the chat wonder wether it's really so or whether the person who answered didn't want to find out

    Paystream:
    yes, with a fee for each payment, to me the fee seems very high, definetely excessive if payments are weekly.
    They told me that my agency pays weekly, so a question:

    Is it possible for the Umbrella company to pay with a frequency different from that of the agency? In particular with a longer frequency (agency weekly, umbrella monthly)
    Would this be any use to you?

        Yes, wondered everything and tried to ignore the PSL and propose contractorumbrella, read previous posts.
        Sorry, deleted PSL after (not)choosing.
