Feel like I'm being used

Before you walk away from this joker you need to write a letter to him requesting payslips and confirmation that the CIS has been paid, or as others have suggested, you'll be paying again.

I've text him already and he said ok, I think he knows hes been a C word, finally i've woken up to it tho so thats one positive form the whole situation. The annoying thing is I thought he was a really nice bloke but money makes people greedier and greedier the more you've got the more you want.

Thanks to everyone for the thoughts etc

 

[Johnuk]

let hope he give you your payslips,

 

[lofty84]

I don't know why he wouldn't, I've always done whats been asked of me and cheaply from the looks of it

Hi Lofty , just out of interest how long did it take you to do what was needed in the op ?

 

[lofty84]

1 and a half days but the half day was more like 2.5 3 hrs mate really

 

[JD6400]

So if you are on a 8hr day thats less than £6 ph ! before tax ?

 

[lofty84]

I did another 2 days after this job with him, mainly rolling up loft insulation and dropping cables for a rewire and he has said 3.5 days at £75.00 less tax is 210 so what does that work out at

210 / 28 = 7.5 ph after tax, what is it before tax is it 262.5 / 28 which would be 9.37 ph

still he could have made it a tenner if he was decent

 

[lofty84]

I just wrongly assumed that because I had done the hole of instillation I would be paid accordingly, he has chosen not to be decent about it though so sod him ive now seen his true colors and as far as i'm concerned and i'm better of out of there and having a go for myself. fair enough he brought me lunch but ive still got to pay for my own national insurance etc .

As you have completed the whole installation, did you do all the testing and issue certificates btw?
