I signed with a UK company, then discovered it still has active operations in Israel. What would you do?
Hi everyone,
I’m looking for outside opinions because I’m genuinely conflicted.
A few months ago, I agreed to produce a monthly music show for ROVR. The contract pays US$1,800 upfront for 12 two-hour curated playlists ($150 per episode).
When they first sent me the contract, the legal entity was ROVR LIVE LTD, with an address in Tel Aviv, Israel.
This was a deal breaker for me. I support the BDS movement, and I told them I was uncomfortable working for a company registered in Israel.
They replied that it was simply a mistake and sent me a new contract with ROVR UK LIMITED, saying:
“The agreement I initially sent was for our former company entity, from before we relocated to the UK.”
Based on that explanation, I signed.
Months later, while looking into the company again, I discovered that:
ROVR LIVE LTD in Israel is still active.
ROVR is actively recruiting employees in Israel.
The founders/directors appear to be the same people behind both the UK and Israeli entities.
Their public communication strongly emphasizes London, while rarely (if ever) mentioning their continued presence in Tel Aviv.
I don’t necessarily think they’ve done anything illegal, but I do feel that the explanation I received gave me a very incomplete picture of the company’s actual structure.
To make things worse, getting paid has been a nightmare. The transfer failed once, they had to request additional identity documents weeks after sending the payment, and I’ve been waiting a long time for the money despite repeated follow-ups.
I’m now in a difficult position.
On one hand, I signed the contract and I intend to honour the commitments I’ve already made.
On the other hand, had I known from the beginning that the company still maintained active operations in Israel, I would never have agreed to participate.
Once the 12 episodes are completed, I have no intention of continuing.
My questions are:
Am I overreacting, or would you also feel misled?
Does “we relocated to the UK” sound misleading given that the Israeli company is still active?
If you were in my position, would you simply finish the contract and walk away, or would you raise the issue with them?
I’m mainly interested in thoughtful opinions, especially from people who have dealt with international company structures or have faced similar ethical dilemmas.
