Agent makes 10% out of me per day. Too much to demand that reduce to 5? This is after 2 years.

It's not really about percentage but more about the cash he makesOriginally posted by heyya99 View PostAgent makes 10% out of me per day. Too much to demand that reduce to 5? This is after 2 years.
10% of 200 quid is a lot different to 10% of 500. He will have a set figure that it just isn't viable for them to go below so there is a hard stop. In general 10% isn't a bad rate at all and it's very uncommon they'll go down to 5%. But as I say it depends on how much actual cash we are talking and how many contractors they have on site amongst other things.'CUK forum personality of 2011 - Winner - Yes really!!!!

Err...that would be mootOriginally posted by MrMarkyMark View PostGenerally, its take it or walk away "offered" in any case, so a mute point.
Obviously, does not happen for all and individuals can negotiate out also.
