I had a ‘contract for services’ with an FCA regulated firm, from 2008 for nearly 10 years. When we became associated, they knew I had clients & work overseas. 12 months ago, a new travel policy was implemented confirming I was no longer able to speak or email clients in the UK when I was travelling. Furthermore, I was no longer allowed to hand out business cards whilst overseas. Any emails I needed to send, whilst overseas, had to be sent to the UK office and directed outbound, from the UK..
I lasted another 12 months before moving to pastures new..
