You were happy with the rate when you signed the contract, but it's almost impossible for the client to know what he's getting for his money!
Basically you sold yourself too cheap

I don't like the idea of Agents getting more than 25% it makes them try harder to screw our market rates down, 12% to 15% seems reasonable, but it's not up to us as the AGENTS POSTING ON THIS CONTRACTORS FORUM will happily tell you.
Contractors should vote with their feet & have faith in their abilitys when faced with rates that are that much below market rates.
If you want revenge simply leave your invoice face up on the desk and call the PM over to discuss something trivial, chances are he'll know what the client is paying the Agency & will later recomend dumping em to earn brownie points.
Only problem is he may think he can get other contractors at your rubbish rates!
