Has anyone any experience of this umbrella company? I am thinking of joining one and a guy I know suggested Heathcote, it looks straight forward enough but I would like to get any feedback I can before I contact them. Cheers AJ
Hi AJ, As a freelancer why are you considering using an Umbrella Company? Are you caugfht by IR35 or just don't want the hassle of own Ltd Co? I guess these guys look OK, all brollies seem to be much of a muchness (apart from Prosperity 4 who sound like a bunch of cowboys) but no experience of Heathcote so cannot comment on that score.

Company Agree with TT. Get your own Limited Company. If you are keen on the brolly route try Umbrella Company, Umbrella Companies, Contractor Umbrella Homepage Seem to be about the most recommended.
Thanks for the input, I am thinking about Heathcote (or another umbrella service) because I don't fancy the hassel of running my own compay. Also I thought HMRC treated these "owner companies" just like PAYE?? Maybe I need a little more research but there seems to be a lot to consider!!
