Can’t fault the service, extremely helpful! Dealt with a person called Matt, who was really supportive within dealing with my request when they arose. Top umbrella service!

Expenses Nightmare
When I first joined this company, I was genuinely impressed. Their website was slick, easy to use, and raising expense claims felt effortless. I was so impressed, in fact, that I recommended them to a colleague - a decision I now deeply regret.
What followed was nothing short of frustrating. They made it almost impossible for my colleague to process simple meal expenses, rejecting claims for items that had already been approved in advance.
Recently, I’ve found myself facing the same nonsense - having legitimate evening meal claims questioned despite being well within my daily allowance and providing full documentation.
This isn’t about fair checks and balances - it feels like they’re more concerned with covering themselves against a potential HMRC audit than supporting honest customers.
If you’re looking for a smooth, hassle-free expenses system, avoid this company. What starts out looking good quickly turns into a bureaucratic headache.

Hi Dominic,
We appreciate you taking time to share your feedback and we’re sorry to hear about your frustrations with the expenses process, this isn’t the experience we want for our umbrella employees.
Our intention is always to make managing expenses as smooth as possible while ensuring complete compliance with HMRC guidelines, which dictates eligibility of expenses. That said, we appreciate this could have been communicated clearer in your case, and we apologise for the inconvenience this has caused both you and your colleague.
We’d really like the chance to look into this further and review the decisions around your claims. Our Operations Manager has reached out to you directly to discuss your comments in detail and reach a resolution.
Thank you again for raising this, your feedback helps us improve both our processes and the service we deliver.
