For the past 6 months I've worked via an agent where I filled in weekly on-line timesheets and once the client had approved the cash appeared in the bank the following week. I then got sent a remittance advice to say I'd been paid.
I asked about invoices in the first month & they asked me to email them over. They obviously aren't checking the invoices to the amounts they have paid me because 1) I had an error on 1 which I've just picked up doing my VAT return, 2) they've overpaid me for an expense claim which I've also only just spotted and 3) I haven't invoiced them for 2 months now & no-one has chased me [contract finished end of Oct - bit behind with admin...]
Is that normal? I thought usually agencies would have self billing if they weren't paying on invoice, but it is definitely a remittance note being posted through - one that looks like it was an old payslip design as it happens.
