Anyone heard of Accutor AG?

[splitbrain]

Hello All,

Has anyone heard of this outfit? Accutor AG (swiss based)appear to be the preferred agent for HCL.

I have been "forced" to move to HCL+Accutor as part of an outsourcing to a managed services model.

The contracts my colleagues are getting from Accutor are frankly unbelievable, they want a £150 monthly fee for.....nothing. They also want to charge money for any bank transfers (i.e., they want to charge a fee for paying you..) as they are using IBAN/SWIFT for transfers..

It's blatent greed, HCL will be paying them and they will be making a cut obviously yet they want to milk the contractor for a couple hundred quid as well every month!

Their website appears to be promoting work visa's etc so this is obviously a specialist in getting indians over on work visa's....I don't think they are cut out for British contractors, it's not like british contractors will last very long in HCL anyway so they probably don't give a tulip.

Sad times.

Who's the end client? When I was last at Barclays they were using HCL but one of the agencies was Search4Tec who were actually very good. I have a contact name if you want to see if you can change agents?

Sorry for opening what appears a bit of an old thread. May I ask if you got paid ok? Hcl and accutor seem very poor. I'm at a large corporate bank working through these companies

Thanks

Hi,

I know several people that had problems with Accutor recently. It seems they did not get pay several invoices without giving a real reason for not doing that. So be extremely careful if you dont want to be the next one..it looks the company is run now by a pakistaní manager and many exployees are complaining that even their payslips are delayed as well without a reason, so many left..

Avoid these people at all costs. I have a load of trouble with these people at the moment. They don't pay your invoices and they are extremely difficult to get in touch with
