I recently returned to work and decided to once again work through SG Umbrella, having had a good experience with them in the past.
As before I found the whole experience easy, efficient and pleasant. Their systems were easy to use, both for me and for the client company that had hired me. Billing and payment all worked smoothly and swiftly. And most of all, all the people I dealt with at SG Umbrella were pleasant and helpful - you really felt they had your back.
I will definitely use them again and if you are reading this review, considering which company to use, I would recommend that you do too.

My experience with SG has been excellent. Their staff are extremely helpful and efficient, their internal processes is well organised as a result decision making and turnaround times are better than what one can expect. Besides Salary is paid on time every time. Highly recommended based on service levels and cost benefit analysis.

I've been using SG Umbrella for 2½ years and they are just what you need from an Umbrella company. They are quick to respond to emails (normally same day response during business hours) and are efficient and helpful to any queries I've had with them over the period. I can highly recommend them if you need their services. I'm stopping work for a while but will certainly use them again when I return to work if I need an Umbrella for that.

Excellent company. Always been paid on time and helpful staff on the phones.

Reply from SG Umbrella
I used SG Umbrella for a short term, but during this time nothing was too much trouble.
You can pick up the phone and speak to your direct contact, who will assist you with anything you need help with.
I did experience on two occasions my pay was paid into my bank account on a different date to my suggested agreed paid date.
They run payroll twice a week Tuesday and Friday so depending on them receiving monies and clearing from your agency it could fall outside of this window.
