We as a crew were apprehensive when we were told that Pinewood TV studios payroll was being "outsourced". However, we had no need to worry. 


Apart from the initial setting up (I'm not that computer/tech savvy), I personally have had no problems from Handle's end. Any problems I had were swiftly dealt with.

I just wanted to say how much me and my freelance sport telly colleagues appreciate the way Handle, handle Handle! Once you’re up and running, it’s probably been the easiest system I’ve ever navigated. When we are busy, it’s comforting to know you’re about 6 clicks away from submitting. Not forgetting how quickly Handle handle the actual phone calls too. Always the best and most professional solution! Thank you all.

As a small business owner I cannot praise the team at Handle enough. 


As any contractor will know, cash flow is important to keeping everything running smoothly and efficiently. The team at Handle have always returned emails and dealt with any issues that we have had from setting up our account to uploading timesheets. 


I have probably spoken with three or four members of the team and they have been incredibly polite and taken me through any issues that I have had. 


Very reassuring to know that these guys are dealing with your invoices. Especially when you are a dinosaur in this field!! 


Keep up the great work!
