    If the other company are very keen to have you, could you ask them to pay the money for you?

    I did think that, but thats a lot of money for me to expect them to pay don't you think...

    It depends how much they want you and what salary bracket you will be in when employed by them. You may be able to negotiate a lower starting salary if they pay off your current employer.

    Don't know how realistic it is in practice but no harm in asking or at least making them aware that you are tied in and don't have the money to buy yourself out. The downside is that if the employer you are in talks with realises you had a contract outlining this tie in but didn't appear to know about it or let them know when you started negotiations, you are going to look like a bit of a plank! Like someone else said, a financial adviser that doesn't read the small print is a bit of liability
    If you always do what you have always done, you will always get what you always got!
