Is anyone here using JSA Umbrella and is paying via salary sacrifice into an Aegon pension? I want to check if what JSA and Aegon are telling me is correct. This is an issue only related to JSA and Aegon.

However, there is nothing legally that prevents contributing to 2 pension schemes, but umbrella companies seem to have a problem with just one, so I wouldn't try getting them to do 2 at the same time. Actually a very long time ago when I worked as an employee I did contribute to 2 penson schemes at the same time - a fixed defined benefit scheme and a variable defined contribution (AVC) scheme.
*Legally it may be employment - but to me it is outsourcing of payroll to get round a mid-contract client ban on Ltd Co contractors. I don't feel like an employee, I don't get any of the benefits of employment, so to me it is not employment.Comment
