Searching for a good agency for travel nursing

I am considering going with Intelistaf. Has anyone worked with them. Bad? Good? I worked with an agency in Florida that cancelled my contract and made me pay the balance of the housing bill (Big Hit!). Do all agencies do that? I mean really, it's like a game of cards Travel Nursing because, when you get to your assignment and they don't like you, they'll think of some technicality to cancel your contract with and then what?

Any input will be greatly appreciated.

Stay away from Intelistaf! They use to be a decent company when I worked for them several years back, but since they combined with MSN...the company totally went down the drain. I did one assignment earlier this year because the assignment was not far from my home base. Well...come to find out Intelistaf gave a contract that was completely wrong from what I agree with the hopital and my pay was wrong the whole time. When I got "cancelled" on my contract, come to find out my 13 week assignment I signed up for was only meant to be 4 weeks. Pay wasn't that great anyways, crappy benefits.

And if you get emails about jobs...half the time they are not true jobs...mostly fishing for nurses.

There are alot other great companies out there...keep looking!
