That’s all
If your mate doesn't need me, name the business and I'll avoid it. (you might check with him/her first to see if their business really doesn't want forum business)
*sales types, the are considerably more expensive than a simple online form... No?
n.b. My accountant currently does the payroll twice a month already... and also does VAT monthly... and Y.E. accounts... with 2 x SAs too... for about the same. Why are umbrellas so expensive?

Its been eye-opening to hear how many umbrella sellers are asking "FCSA" or non... and then offer variations of some sort of "tax planning" alternative... the mind boggles at the brass of these "people".

Originally posted by mjcp View PostEr, yes. That's the service I'm buying, and for £80-£120 a month, I want a slightly accurate illustration of what the net will be.

a scam umbrella (which would eventually result in a visit to the HMRC enquiries forum) has an awful lot of money to spend on such sales calls.
