I am not sure how you stand in this situation, as it depends on your conditions in your contract of employment. I know that some agencies are realy bad and will take all they can get. Acas - Advice leaflet - Holidays and holiday pay follow this link as it may help you, if not give ACAS a call, I have always found them very helpfull, sometimes just the mention of ACAS will make the agency move, but beware as the have ways of getting their own back. no work, odd shifts etc. Good luck Stone
