    Parasol owe me money they made a complete Horlicks of my pay.

    I will never ever work for them again.
    There are lots of threads about Parasol on the forum, I had trouble with them too years ago and I wasn't the only one.

      Indeed it is so annoying when the agency say them or nothing.

      It's got to the stage where I ask for a list of brolly's before using an agency now.

        Just out of interest - would you refuse a contract if you were forced to work with an umbrella company that you didn't like?

          After my last experience yes I would. I ask the agency for a list of brolly's now before interview.

          I have to wait 5-6 weeks for HMRC, to get my expenses back now, not impressed.

            I had my pay Processed by Parasol and they have made a right bodge job of it and subsequently I have terminated there service which in my opinion is not there, As an Engineer who travels you would think they could keep to HMRC's tax dates but no they rather tax you twice and then have the cheek to say you can claim it back at then end of the tax year....
