Definitely, definitely looks like a scam. These horrible agencies seem to never give up on exploiting people out of their money.

Very unlikely that the company involved will do refunds.
If you paid via card and not get what you expected to receive, contact your card issuer (bank) and initiate a chargeback.

My daughter was scammed out of £400 they told her she has paid for her photos own website and to go to the model academy and that Emma (agent,they make it sound professional) will be in touch finding her work .everyone my daughter has messaged Emma she ignores her or says she will get back to her soon . I also got in touch and asked for the money back (£400 for a few photos send by email,that’s a portfolio) and they give me an email to get in touch with head office . No such email so again phoned back my daughter was given another email .again no such email . I will not leave it at this

Rude, disappointing and unprofessional PLEASE BE WAREThis agency is my worst experience in this industry. I signed with them in September 2019 after I had a very long talk with their modelling trainer Meni who is very delicate and sweet. He assured the following:1- I implied limitation like i don't want to do bikini or lingerie or any jobs entail revealing and he said all fine. Models are not forced to do what they don't prefer. Now they came back when i asked for refund with disgrace tone of

I tried to go through their website, to find th same list but it isn't there!? Quite confused.The small test n the website mentions,

Personally I would cancel now but otherwise just treat it with a very high degree of scepticsm.

i think its a scam, when you’re in the building its very run down, the ‘studio’ where they take the photos is a wall with stands to give it some privacy, the only room that looks presentable is the room you enter after the photos which makes you oay an upfront payment of £250 for the pictures for your portfolio and another £250 for a ‘training course’ which i was told wasnt even necessary yet she originally said it was.

You may get some photos, but whether they will be worth what you pay is another matter. They will also likely push hard on upselling you on some studio package.
If you go, I’d approach it with a lot of caution.
