Good company to work with definitely enjoyed working with them but the only thing they didn't do well was expenses issue. They somehow couldn't cover my expenses tax free despite the company I was working for was willing to pay my expenses.

Great company

Great company, keeps it simple. Prompt payment.

Only dropped one star as the charge for a variable pension contribution/salary sacrifice seems high

Forget the rest, Umbrella Company UK is best

Previously I contracted with another Umbrella Company and had so many problems with it with fees charged twice that advertised and weekly wage slips being different due to the errors being made and rectified after my insistence, I became fed up of having to manage it on a week to week basis.

I contacted a number of Umbrella Companies re their charging structure and spoke to three where I could get a feel for what the company could do for me and the level of service provided.

Immediately I really took to Umbrella Company UK Ltd and I was impressed with their professionalism as well as receiving a call back from my dedicated service manager. Since joining last October 2021 I have had absolutely no issues with my weekly pay slips and my pension payments get credited much quicker than with my previous company.

I would highly recommend Umbrella Company UK Ltd to any contractor looking to get the most out of their payments with excellent customer service to boot.
