LV= are not wholly owned by Allianz, only the GI side of the business is. Effectively it is now 2 separate companies - LVFS is the other element which manages the L&P arm.

Assessment using CEST tool only. Appeal would also have been based on CEST tool. LV= stated that substitution would not be considered.
Was offered Fixed Term Contract (PAYE), Contractor via third party or resign. I resigned.
Most projects will not be affected since the majority of contractors affected in my area are taking the FTC option. A few contractors are leaving.

Desktop questionnaire completed, CEST result submitted however despite what they demonstrated this was just lip service. Steer from Allianz was everyone is deemed inside.
