services. The teacher is being promised £1 + being better off. Given that my pay would be even better if I was being paid directly from the LEA, I am hardly impressed by this £1+ offer. How do others feel?

I feel exactly as you do! I work for 2 agencies one uses 'key portfolio' and I earn £30 or so less a day from them because of all their hidden charges. Sadly the school I really like, and get most work from, only uses this agency and wont pay me direct.Will be interested to hear from others on this subject do feel its a rip off disguised as a 'service'.

Agreed. I had a spell of not working for the agency and therefore key portfolio, so the latter sent a voucher (equal to the cost of processing one payslip) for returning to them. I had to post the voucher back to key portfolio, they would not accept a scan by email, and have never received the discount. I have also had problems with their online acount. It does not work and despite phone calls, it still does not work.
