Temporary work (agency) pays the most in my experience. My pay ranged from £8-12 per hour.

Finally secured a permanent job and I get paid £9.50 per hour.

I wanted to try agency work but lots of people i know have complained about it. are you female and what types of work did you have to do?
and what job do you have now
Worked part-time for 1.5 years here, not there anymore:
Three, Customer Advisor

£8/h base pay, 25% of monthly as a bonus per month for hitting sales target, 25% of quarterly pay as a bonus every quarter for hitting customer service target.

I hit customer service every quarter but missed sales a couple times.

Annualised (assuming full-time hours): ~£23-25k potential

What I earned part time (16hrs a week): ~£8-10k a year.

I'm female and I did mainly office admin work. To be honest all types of jobs and agencies have their problems, you'll never know about it unless until you have tried it yourself (hence experience).
I work in media and publishing answering calls and replying to emails to international finance companies.
