    The funny thing is though with C&G is all they want is a letter from my agency verifying my contracts, nothing about looking back 3 years. I'm with an umbrella company anyway so don't have any 'books' as such. The fact that all C&G want is the letter from my agency worries me to be honest as I wonder how they can lend me money based only on that and my credit record. The Clydesdale one want copies of the last 3 years contracts, bank statements, utility bills etc which to me seems far more proper!

    Aha - but if you are with an umbrella you are effectively a PAYE employee of that company so they can push you through as an employee if they so wish - it's their decision here - happened a lot a few years ago - thought it was being clamped down on now
