Agency rolling contract holiday pay

Hello all,
Have just landed a job at hsbc via an agency.
I will be on a rolling contract but the poject im working on is permanent.
I have been quoted a paye hourly rate of £9.23.
The agency have said that a percentage of this rate is then deducted in order to give me holiday pay as and when I need it.
So the amount I get is obviously less, I think it works out about £8.13 an hour after the holiday pay deduction.
Is this a normal thing to do with agency work, I have been told that I receive all the money saved up if I leave the role and haven't spent all my holiday allowance up.
It just seems abit odd to me, do I legally have the option to have the money paid to me and just not getbpaid for my holidays?
I am yet to sign anything.
Thanks for any help.
Daniel
