I don't work in London but I know many people who do. The experience Scala developers I know who work contracts get £500-£700pd outside of banks, and £600-£900pd in the banks.
I've been longing to go contracting in the last few months, but judging by the sentiment on this thread, it doesn't look like it's a wise choice.
One of the big tech companies
70k Base 20k Bonus + ~20k / year stock vesting
Startup salaries topped out at 80k (ignoring non-liquid stock) so went contracting. You need the stomach for it, but it pays a lot better for similar work.
Contractor 100% remote, full stack, 10y experience, currently £40/h, will increase to £50 before the end of the year.
Contractor, currently £650/day. Hoping to increase that to £850/day by end of year. Experience > 15 yrs in web dev, though maybe only last 5 applies now (I don't do PHP 3 or perl any more). Edit: long term so no "off" days & 150k ish per year depending how many holidays I take.

How do you plan to get beyond £650/day?
