So I started a new contract at the beginning of the month after having all of June off, to my amazement I was contacted after a few days for another role I'd interviewed for. I said I be willing to consider it if the contract was right as the role is closer to home and commutable on a daily basis if I chose to do that.
Not letting on that I had already started a contract and I told the agency I couldn't proceed as the contract was utter tulipe. They gave me the usual blurb about have they had numerous amounts of contractors on that contract etc and I told them to withdraw me from the role.
I get a call later from the agency saying the client is willing to go direct with one of their contracts which was ultimately better but still inside the scope of IR35, I sent an email to the client explaining I couldn't go ahead and suffice to say they questioned what advice I was getting as they didn't believe IR35 would relate to a 3 month contract.
I know it's not their problem but I gather it's common that no one outside of here really understands it guess they won't be sending me a xmas card.
