Unauthorised castings — be careful
I wouldn't rely on this outfit. A couple of months ago I started getting submissions from them and at first I thought it was a helpful aggregator — turned out not. I'm a UK casting director and I'm not even registered with the service, yet they were posting castings purporting to be for my jobs. The first impression was baffling: US talent popping up for UK shoots, applicants nobody asked for, and briefs that didn't match the job. I tried contacting them several times (short emails, clear questions) and kept getting a stock reply that didn't address anything. Beyond the wasted time for applicants and me, it feels like a sloppy approach to verification — which makes me uneasy about safety and whether listings are genuine. I'm wary of them and would recommend sticking to known, vetted platforms.
That upgrade button felt wrong
"Upgrade now". I clicked — curiosity more than anything — and it took me to a bare page with zero useful details, then straight to PayPal. No clear price shown, no breakdown, and then a $239.99 charge popped up on my account. I chased them by email, got nothing useful back, and PayPal at first offered only $119 as a partial refund. So yeah, felt like a proper rip-off. After a lot of nagging and escalating the dispute I did manage to get some money back eventually, so it wasn’t total disaster. Still, I’d warn people: don’t click that button without screenshots and asking questions first. Lesson learned — be sceptical, but persistent if it goes wrong.
Nearly walked away — glad I stuck with it
Right, so I started using this a couple of months ago after seeing an Instagram ad and my first reaction was proper sceptical — the ad made it sound cheap but the checkout showed a much bigger charge, and I nearly shut the tab. I emailed them, a bit annoyed, and to my surprise the customer service actually got back to me quickly and sorted it out — not perfectly, there was a bit of back-and-forth, but they issued a pro-rata adjustment and made sure my renewal was fixed. Since then the casting notices and emails have been landing reliably, and delivery of what they promised has been spot on. Honestly, I’m pleasantly surprised; could’ve been a nightmare but turned out fine, so thumbs up from me.
Half-price offer turned into a farce
a charge for $239.99 landed straight away. So my initial doubts — do they show the final cost? — were not unfounded.
I contacted support, hoping for a sensible, quick fix (refund, explanation, whatever). Response took a couple of days and a few back-and-forth messages. When they did reply it was basically “no refunds, you accepted the terms when you clicked the link.” I’m not convinced that clicking a non-specific upgrade button equals explicit consent to immediate billing without a final summary, but that’s their stance. I expected at least a clear price breakdown or a final confirmation step; that’s standard practice and why I was wary in the first place. One mildly surprising thing: the payment was processed very fast (too fast, really) — which shows their system works, just not in a customer-friendly way. My advice: if you decide to try the offer, take screenshots of each page, use a disposable card if you can, and don’t assume any promo code has been applied until you see a final invoice. I wish they’d simply add a proper confirmation screen and be upfront about costs.The odd little win after a faff
the emails were sparse, mostly the same notices I’d already seen elsewhere, and I kept getting nags to “upgrade” even though I’d paid. Proper annoying, and the help page was basically a ghost town. I tried emailing, got the usual automated replies and then silence. Classic head-in-hands stuff.
But then there was a day — I remember it clearly — when one of those notices actually turned up a tiny, real opportunity. I sent a quick self-tape on my phone, half expecting nothing, and a week later I had an audition. Not a blockbuster, but it paid a few evenings’ rent and, more importantly, it made me feel like the whole thing hadn’t been completely pointless. That’s the moment I knew I was oddly satisfied: proof that something useful could come out of the mess.
Does it mean I’d recommend it unreservedly? Nope. The site is glitchy, the customer support is pretty much non-existent, and the repeat upgrade emails are infuriating. It’s not polished at all. But when you’re juggling day jobs and trying to squeeze in auditions, having that one useful lead mattered. If they fixed the helpdesk and stopped spamming upgrade links, it’d be a lot better. As it stands, use it cautiously — don’t expect miracles, but don’t bin it straight away either. Could be useful, could be a waste; depends on your luck and patience.
