It depends whether you are mid-contract or not, I'd have thought.

If it's the end of the contract, that's easy - don't accept their calls, don't go on any interviews they arrange etc.

If it's mid-contract, then it's trickier. You could either:

1) Leave and find a new role 2) Tell your agent that you know what their % is, and you want a raise or you will leave 3) Explain to the company that they are being over-charged, and see if their legal department will fight the agency to buy you out so you can contract directly or via a better agency.

Not sure that any of these guarantee success...
