There isn’t one in Ponte. There’s one in Sheffield with a sattelite office in Normanton.
For what reasons Ken?

Stan beat me to it
i used to work for em, they are a sheffield based company (at the back of meadowhall) run by 3-4 woman, but they also set up a sattlite office in normanton. dunno where the normanton office is, but i used to have to deal with em when on theGCT thorne contract, i worked for em for around 10+months, work was regular but not fantastic, and i parted company with them and went to DH, something they where not too pleased with, Ive done a few shift for them since, BUT after they kept laying the feminine eye lid flickering "Gwon do thing crap job for me and Ill sort you a good run for tommorow" routine on me :unamused: ive since recieved several calls to come and work for em, the last time was during the floods.
A lot of their work in the sheffield area consists of innovate, Rank hovis, and the odd wilkos contract, as far as I know their rates havent changed for years, and they are unwilling to reward long term drivers with a little extra, chasing discrepancies in your wages is a regular thing, especially expenses. spending £5-£10 of my PAYG phone credit p/w when broken down, running late etc and only getting £2-£3 back isnt uncommon!
so usingyour own phone at work isn`t recomended
if you ask me if i was willing to recomend someone to em, I`ll give em the benefit of the doubt.
But we parted company for other reasons with me say “dont call me and I wont call you”

that mustve changed recently, coz its been owned and run by 1 of the women at sheffield for years. and as Stan says they did a shed load of work, they did have an exclusive deal to supply drivers to innovate ages ago, but Ive done innastate for other agys this year at holmewood J29
You need to avoid them. I’m owed money by them.
Actually,it’s not for me,as I’m quite happy where I am. 
I recently saw their phone number,at a customers,and it was definitely a Ponte number,but I can’t for the life in me remember what it was.
No problem though,as I’ll get hold of it next time I’m at the customers premises.

Is that the sole reason we need to avoid them?
I dare say a lot of folk are owed money by agencies - seems to be a common theme.

No, the fact that they don’t pay their drivers for the work they’ve done is completely insignificant and certainly not a valid enough reason to steer clear of them. I think you should phone them up right now and tell them you don’t believe any of the gossip and let them know how much you want to work for them!

But you haven’t told us “any of the gossip”.
