thanks. I'm also not even sure when my 'employment' with Compusource ended. Was it from December, when I stopped asking them to submit invoices on my behalf? Their website, which had disappeared, has come back online but they do indeed seem to have gone out of business. I called the number and no reply. Because they stopped sending me pay advices I don't even have those from October. Bit worried about the implications of all this.Comment

Look here if you're not sure http://www.contractoruk.com/first_ti...r_company.html but there is advice on this thread
Once you have done that choose an umbrella company or an accountant. (have a look though threads here if you're worried about jumping into the fire...)
Call your choice - they will be able to help you sort this out."I can put any old tat in my sig, put quotes around it and attribute to someone of whom I've heard, to make it sound true."

As Cojak said - you need to find another umbrella or set up a Ltd Co asapComment

2) Getting into trouble with the tax man (not immediate, but it becomes a serious problem pretty damn quick)."I can put any old tat in my sig, put quotes around it and attribute to someone of whom I've heard, to make it sound true."

I think the payment thing is ok. I submit my timesheets to the company's system which are then signed off internally. I was then completing a timesheet on Compusource's system, and they would then invoice the company I'm working for. So basically I have a backlog of timesheets that need invoicing for, so I'm still due to be paid.
The taxman sounds like the much more serious problem!!Comment
