Ive been doing agency class 2 there is room to haggle on your wage :smiling_imp:

as they are after c2 drivers all the time I chose ltd company as id sort my own tax etc, a umbrella company will take anything from £15 a payday to 10% they blag you saying they can off set your tax with out goings but id prefere to do that myself :laughing: :laughing: :laughing:

As my accountant only charges £150 a year for atax return you just invoice the agency via email they pay into you business account you can can even VAT register but thats a nightmare :imp: :laughing:

Ive been getting £12 per hour from most agencies on nights and agree with them at least 8hrs pay so if you do 12 you get 12 , if you do 5 you get 8 :laughing: :laughing: you just have to be cheeky and aslong as you do the job moneys there :wink:

Is it just me who thinks this could be another one of Digit369’s stupid questions?
One offers 2 days a week while another offers 5 days would it be a good idea to work out total income and costs and then decide the best one for yourself.
