USA Model and Talent Search (USAMTS)

To Whom It May Concern:

USA Model and Talent Search (USAMTS) came to my town last year and held auditions for models and actors.

They promised that a convention would be held in a few weeks in Seattle for those that made the cut to compete in front of agents.

Well, the convention never happened!

They promised to refund the $495 that I paid, but it's now a year later, and I've seen no money.

I would call them periodically and get in arguments with a woman named Gabrielle over the status of the refunds. She was about as rude as it gets.

The other day I called their phone number and the people who answered had "no knowledge" of USA Model and Talent Search (USAMTS) or how to get a hold of them.

At the time, they seemed like a legitimate company. They had a B-movie actress with them promoting their services; they actually held on-camera trials; and the staff seemed knowledgeable.

Please don't be fooled like I was. Steer clear of USA Model and Talent Search (USAMTS).
