Salary Illustrations

Online salary calculators are not only assumptive, inaccurate and often downright misleading, they also come with very little guidance on what you can and can’t input into them. As a result, there is a tendency for many to overestimate what their return is likely to be.

Unless you are very careful, you could find yourself joining an Umbrella in the expectation of receiving a fantastic return, when in reality, based on HMRC guidelines, half the expenses you hoped to receive may actually be disallowed. This would clearly have a negative effect on the level of income you receive and unfortunately, by the time you discover the truth, the Umbrella is likely to have you locked in as a customer. You can imagine the hassle involved in moving at this point and the whole affair could turn into an absolute nightmare! In order to avoid such hair tearing incidents, be sure to take a close look at exactly what the online salary calculator is actually including before taking the plunge with your hard earned cash.

To avoid such problems, we have removed our online salary calculator and replaced it with a fantastic team of experienced tax specialists who are fully aware of every expense you can and can’t claim. Once again, we are leading the field in offering a personal, tailored service for all our contractor employees.

The answer to your problems couldn’t be simpler, rather than fiddling around with an assumptive and typically inaccurate online calculator, give Crystal a call and speak to a knowledgeable and friendly real live person who is based in the UK. Let us know the specifics of your contract and leave the rest to us. Sit back, have a well earned cup of tea and we will have a full written salary illustration, based on your unique contract particulars, emailed over to you within minutes.

Be sure to make Crystal your first port of call, we are sure it will be your last.
