I've just recived the final remittance notice for my previous contract through Ajilon. There was a 1200 deduction siply titled 'Expenses' with no other explanation.
After contacting them I was told that their legal department had said that, because I left with 4 days remaining on my contract, that the finance department was to deduct the 1200
This is ridiculous, yes, there was a clause in the contract that stated they could go after me for 500 should I leave early, and that they could go after me for lost revenue if I did leave early, there is no way on earth that my absence for the last 4 days of the contract cost them 1200 pounds It wouldn't have cost them 700 pounds in lost revenue (or if it did, I was being totally short-changed on the rate I was being paid)
I was prepared to take the 500 pound hit (I've already made that back), but an extra 700 on top of that? absolutely not.
