        Do companies generally monitor internet usage on such a level?

        Unfortunately I'm in an open plan office at work, with some right jobsworths behind me, so daren't even risk browsing CUK or anything non-work related except at lunchtime when everyone else is doing it.

            My client only grants internet and external email on an 'as need basis'

              Another reason I'm keeping my head down at work. Don't want to give them any excuse if they start culling contractors.

              I dread them mentioning the "P" word to me. "No" might not be so well received when it comes to my renewal.

                  They've mentioned it to me twice. The second time I declined I was asked if I was sure as if I turned them down again there would be a "P" word replacing me. So I'm off in a few weeks

I then suggested to him tactfully that he might advise his fellow directors to pursue other priorities and never heard anything about it again.
                    And did you decline to ask him for a back hander or 2 to keep quiet about his activities?
                    If your company is the best place to work in, for a mere £500 p/d, you can advertise here.

                      Aye, 'tis a good deal that. I seem to recall I got about £50 back on Quidco as well.
