if you have a long term contract (as a freelancer, not as a temporary employee) through #Deel, you need to be careful with terminating your contract.

The system and my contract said that termination from either side need a 10 days notice period. So to quit on the 21st, I set the termination date on the 11th and informed the client separately as well. I thought that will be it and I'll continue to be paid till the 21st.

However, it turned out that the client was allowed to then terminate the contract immediately so my last day was 11th. I complained to Deel about it but they didn't see an issue even.

Now even though I was robbed of the 10 days of pay, I'm thinking of this more as a blessing: I can work on zbus and relax a bit before my next job.

However, I can imagine this being a huge problem for others so I thought I should post about it.

Does anyone have any experience with #Deel, #Remofirst, or any other #EOR & #GlobalPayroll provider?

Hiring someone full-time outside of Belgium is tough, using an EOR seems the ideal solution. And if they also provide a full payroll solution for our local employees, all the better!

But the difference in monthly price per EOR employee between Deel (600$) and Remofirst (200$) is quite big. Too big to just ignore.
