Talent6 Reviews and Complaints ^{All Reviews}

User comment:

Seriously, I know it has become common practice to jus skip over reading the Terms&Conditions when you join things, but we should all probably stop. I stupidly signed up and paid the $1.98, and a day later decided to do the research. They're not a scam in the traditional sense, because everything they do is legit (for the most part; im not going to undermine what has happened to some other people, I know how these companies can be). The reason what they do is legit is because everything they do is spelled out in their Terms&Conditions, which I have put here for any future people who may fall for Talent6 's little subtle tricks. They tell you how they're going to charge you, how much, and how you accept that they can change the price at any time, they say how they're not a casting agency or anything, just a "venue" and they give you a very short amount of time to cancel ALL services, which they don't tell you until the end of the Terms&Conditions (hopefully I am able to do it in time). When you call and sign up, they don't tell you any of this. Considering what Ihave heard has happened to some people I am now scared that they might try it on me, hopefully not, but luckily I kind of found out in time, because I am going to send the fax to say I don't want their services and hopefully get a refund and stop any billing. Best of Luck to all of you and remember be wise, there's a reason they put those Terms&Conditions there for you to read. Hopefully one day people can stop being so evil, sneaky and just downright grimy.
