As an ex employee of Global I would advise any Contractor or anyone seeking a role with Global to stay well away. In both cases you WILL regret it !!! You have been warned stay well clear of Global Cleaning Contracts PLC. As a Contractor working for Global, apart from the odd couple you will not make any money. They paint a rosy picture of the business, simply take the figures to a Financial Advisor or someone similar, they will advise you against it !!!!...

I have worked with them for quite some time and have found them to honest, reliable and always paid me on time every month - just like they promised. I trust them okay and will work for them in the future...

Whatever you do avoid this company like the plague. They advertise in newspapers to find people they can dupe into being cleaning contractors for them. They paint a rosy glowing picture of all the benefits but the reality is a nightmare you would not believe. For three years they made my life hell. First of all they sold me two contracts one of which was already disgusted with Global and I was left to finance the contract for 2 years before they would refund even part of what they owed me. The other was for a company that insisted on 10 hours work a week and they paid for 2. No correction- they refused to pay anything so I also had to pay that for 2 years with no compensation. I could go on and on but I am sure you get what I am complaining about. Finally I have taken them to court to get the last £603 they owe me and received a Notice of Judgment Entered on the 5th October. When I called the court about the procedure to get the money they said the company have requested the case to be \"set aside.\" I am sure they did. Yet more time wasting garbage from these cowboys. The court said I could have the Judgment transferred out for the execution of a warrant which I have done. Let\'s see how these complete jerks wriggle out of that. They charge five times the monthly income as the contract fee, and then they deduct a twenty per cent management service fee from the monthly customer bill. In addition to this they take ten pounds per month for insurance. If for example you clean four offices of the same company but in different locations you would pay forty pounds a month in insurance. The resale value is fifty per cent of your original payment. Be very careful and take legal advice before signing anything with this company....
