Good afternoon all, my first time here, so please be gentle.
I have been contracting on and off for a number of years now, and i have never come across this situation before.
Basically, I have just had a conversation with Alexander Mann who have a contract ready and waiting for me, however:
1. They can terminate my contract without notice, whereas I am not allowed to end the contract I HAVE to see it through til the end of October this year
2. I know how much the client is paying them. They are offering a rate which is 40% lower
3. I am not allowed to pick my own umbrella company, I have to use Parasol. They won't allow any different, despite the fact I refuse point blank to deal with them and the way they held back over £800 worth of expenses and then refused to send back my receipts and the distinctly dodgy way in which you get paid with "commission"
4. I have to opt out. There is "no exception to this"
If I don't agree to the above, I don't get the contract. None of the above is legal is it?
