Camp America, Americamp or Camp Leaders?

Hey, so I am desperate to work in a camp next summer but I just don't know which company to go with!
I understand Camp America pay back your money if you don't get placed (except for the CRB which is understandable as that is a third party involvement) but I was wondering do the other 2 do this also? I can't afford to pay deposits to all 3 companies so I need some advice please! :smile:
I'm not too sure re refunds with the other companies, I think they all refund to an extent if you're unplaced though!

Americamp seems to me to be the best value for money in general, your 'pocket money' is a lot higher than Camp America and you don't have to pay as much up front as CA either, they also seem really friendly to speak to. I don't know much about Camp Leaders though.

I'm thinking of applying this year and have been going through all the companies looking at pro's and con's. I'd be a bit miffed if I got there and found out someone doing the same job as me was being paid a lot more as a lot of CA people find :tongue:

Camp leaders refund if you don't get placed as well. But if you do get placed with them and it's your first year going they take a huge chunk out of your wages at the end of camp. I think its something like $900. Not sure if CA do the same. :-)

I'm applying through camp leaders now for summer 2014 and having a really good experience :smile: if you do things early you save money too! So far I've saved £100 off my total cost, which I've told them to keep so I don't have to pay £145 for my embassy appointment! So they're being really helpful and they are genuinely interested in my summer!!
