Resign from Umbrella

[socialworker]

Another reason not to go with an umbrella if you are serious about your profession, they are basically leeches who ensure you are working in the least tax efficient manner possible while creaming off a lucrative %age off the top for doing sweet FA (never mind its yet another middle man company holding onto your money while you hope they stay solvent long enough to pay you...)

I have to disagree, umbrellas don't "ensure you are working in the least tax efficient manner". You choose to work in roles where you are within IR35 i.e. paying tax in the same way as the majority of the population. Why do you think you should be an exception? Yes they get paid for their work but don't you? - and there is probably more to it than you think. Dealing with some of the people who post on here can't be a picnic either, who basically think the rules dont apply to them and don't read contracts before they sign them.

I do but it makes no sense and despite repeated requests for a translation they just repeat the same garbage.

I have handed it over to current brolly in the hope they can untangle it.

If you want to PM me I will translate for you

We'll the 1st was hopeless the 2nd brilliant but moved, the 3rd did a runner leaving us all in a big hole with HMRC as he had all our paper work and was receiving all communications.

Then went back to brolly, then tried one of the big specialised contractor companies who were very good at first then went rapidly downhill, so back to brolly.

Obviously I am not cut out to be a contractor, I have only been doing it since 95
