rosskesava - It sounds like you have had your really bad experience with working abroad.
But most people that runs a business want to have proper people that delivers as promised. This goes also for the hiring company. We never have any problems like that, and we always pay our people.
I need someone in Scandinavia to do a job. If its done properly, the people that we try gets it regularly. We are paying plane tickets(from say London), a place to say an everything. We just need someone to do the job two times a year.
edward1 - will do that 
Sean Dyer - Thanks! 
Sorry Ola, if the people you use get work regularly, then why aren't you using those same people again and I do appologise for my suspiscions.
Yes, I had 3 very bad experiences that left me thousands out of pockets and so have quite a few abseilers who I've worked with.
If an offer of all expenses paid work sounds too good to be true.................
As per the question above, there are abseilers in Scandinavia, I know there are because I worked with a few who do work all over Europe (through IRATA) so why not recruit from that country?
Better still, advertise with or through IRATA.
