I've worked through them, but don't know the name you mention. They try and take the pi55, but I've yet to contact an agency that doesn't try to maximise their take in one way or another. If they're messing you about tell them to f off. I had no real problems with them, discovered that their take was 17% but my rate was still ok.
Shysters, sharks, liars, of course. Yet to meet an agent that wasn't. Usual rules apply.
