Why are you doing another persons work for free? Tell your client liason (you don't have a manager now do you...) you're more than willing to do him a quote for the extra work now he's confident YourCo has the skills.
what he said - speak to your agency tell them you want to give a weeks notice and that the agency need to ensure you'll be paid.

what you describe is pretty much the way things are in contracting - bonus when it's not!
All I get offered now are jobs to integrate someone elses (for which read: an Indian) krap code onto the hardware.
Usually, this only takes up about a third of each week before you have to send it back for corrections and because it isn't my responsibility to write code (despite it being what I am: (a) best qualified for, (b) Sh1t hot at) I'm not allowed to fill in the spare time writing code so I have to find noddy things to do to fill the rest of the week.
Oh for the good old days when contractors were taken on to write code.

[QUOTE=NotAllThere;339699]Hand in your notice and work to your contract. If it says 7 hours a day, with one hour for lunch, then work 7 hours and take one hour for lunch. What's the manager going to do? [QUOTE]
Refuse to sign your time sheet.

More than likley they may also come after your for breach of contract.
It is also a highly unprofessional thing to do. I would never walk out. If the work/people are carp then negotiate with them and ask for no notice. If you just got offered more money then walk but don't expect to be able to cross a burning bridge in the future.
