As I'm toying with the idea of switching back to IT contracting I would like some recommendations for a good umbrella company that does not rip you off and is not not dodgy

Can recommend a couple for you, I'd need to reach out as I'm not sure if they'll take on an individual contractor though. Let me know if you want info.

I've used Paystream for the last couple of years, been happy with them.

I'm with NASA Group, seem fine to me. Never had a pay issue, always very quick to respond, etc.

Clarity umbrella are awesome, they helped me move from permie to contracting over a weekend, taking care of all contracts, legals, paperwork etc etc. They take a minimal cut and are always on hand and quick to respond to anything. Lucy, the founder, is just so helpful, I can't recommend them enough.

I found them all much of a muchness

All charge about the same and you will also find out you rarely get what they say when you first call it id ALWAYS less.

Also do not necessarily think working PAYE is worse, ask someone to help you with what you might get, it might not be far off if you are not on mega money, these days I have found if you are on say 20ph it is often not worth going umbrella unless you are doing hours.
