It’s early days but at last an umbrella company that answer emails and phone calls. I’m optimistic that after several miserable experiences I’ve found an umbrella company that can actually deliver what they promise.

Responsive and efficient, ticks all the boxes

I've worked as a contractor via Contractor Umbrella twice, for periods of a few months, and I was always very satisfied by the service!
Their support is responsive and efficient, and it feels really good to be supported like this when working as a contractor.

Payments were were consistently late…

Payments were were consistently late and when chased up they would blame the agency. However when I spoke to the agency they would show proof that payment was sent. They finally admitted it was their fault as they needed to do something so payment would be moved on. However most weeks I would chase this and was told this won’t happen again, but it did...again and again and again. The customer service is shocking considering they assign you a account manager which you pay for anyway!

They also rip you off with fees. I use somewhere else now where I get paid about £50 less a week, yet take home £30 more a week than I did with them.

Considering how often I would have to chase payment because someone didn’t move the payment from the agency to their payroll, I was only refunded the fees once and then I made a point of not paying them for that week out of frustration.

They are a shockingly incompetent company and I would avoid at all costs. Many others out there that offer better services. I would give zero stars if I could

Risposta di Contractor Umbrella

Good morning,

Your negative review appears to be based on the tax we have deducted, which is in accordance with standard UK tax rates rather than the service you have received from us.

The payroll process, and deductions, are set in place by HMRC so we have no control over this, and the process is the same for all umbrella companies/employers in the UK. The only cost that comes to Contractor Umbrella is a small weekly margin we charge for our services.

However, if Contractor Umbrella as a business have not provided you with service you expected, please do reach out and let us know, as we would be happy to look into this right away.

We can be contacted on 01206 591000.

Many thanks,

Sophie Lewis

Easy onboarding

My account manager, Mahli, was always quick to respond to my queries and she was great to work with. The onboarding process was simple and the portal for logging hours is also very intuitive.
If payment was delayed, Mahli was always happy to follow up with the other parties to make sure that payments were made in a timely manner. I will be using Contractor Umbrella again. Thank you Mahli!

Excellent

I have been using Contractor Umbrella for over 4 years and all my experiences with them have been outstandingly good. I have an amazingly helpful and professional Contract Manager who has made every process transparent and effortless on my part, responds very quickly with any query, and makes sure that everything is right first time.
I have received a first class service for very modest fees and can recommend Contractor Umbrella without hesitation.

These guys are absolute scammers!!

These guys are absolute scammers!!
You work hard for your money and they still take your money away with all there fees.

Picture already paying for NI & TAX then these absolute scammers still take an EXTRA £20-£30 EVERY WEEK talking about “MARGIN” fees!

If you work for a recruitment agency and they use these guys are pay roll people….RUN!
You won’t see your money that you work hard for!

Risposta di Contractor Umbrella

Hi Daniel, as a payroll company we have no control over the tax/NI contributions made from worker's pay. These rates are set in place by HMRC. If you choose to use our service, we charge a small ‘margin’ each time we run payroll which covers Professional Indemnity and Public Liability insurance for workers, and allows us to operate as a business and pay our staff. This cost is visible before you register to use our services, on our registration form and on all initial correspondence. Please feel free to contact us if you wish to discuss this further.

Many thanks,

Sophie

Errors and Communication Issues

Payslip incorrect and when on w1m1 they choose an approach that is unsuitable for non uniform payments. Too much frustration in trying to get information and update on the issues (have to be persistent and refer higher up the chain). There appears to be
a lack of concern for clients and no real regard to individual client status.
