Complaint Review: Universal Talent - Wayne New Jersey

I went to these guys hoping for a job. Well they were very nasty as soon as i walked in Beacouse i had my husband with me. They pretended to play with my son but i could tell.

They sat me down and talked for a while about jobs and how i would get background work maybe. and how they take 20% of whatever i would make and they said i would only make $75 for a while.

Well then they said i would need photos so i looked at the preveiw and then they said it would be over $500 buck for pictures and acting classes that i said i did not want.

But He just keep trying to talk me into it. So i told him i would talk to my husband who of course said what i did OVER $500 i dont think so. well we walked back into the room and i could not but help over hear his convo with another young girl.

She was asking how much it would be for new pictures because even the best one in hers was covering over half her face. I saw it and it was not a very good picture at all. well we said we could not pay it wich was true and we left.

I called the day after to see if i could get my picture back. It was from my wedding. I told them they could keep it because i had it on cd. But i lost the cd in my latest move so it was the only copy. well the lady who takes the calls was very rude and mean.

So i asked her to put him on the phone. he said i had to pay him $10 to get my picture back. Which i said i was not going to pay because im not comming back so i want my picture back.

He said i have to pay or else. So i had my uncle call him to see if he could get my picture back. He said the $10 was for the audition. But when we entered and left they Never said anything about $10 audititon fees.

He said i sign a contract with it in there. But the only thing i put my name on was the info contact sheet name number adress. So now i cant get my wedding picture back unless i pay them. I am pissed.

Thats my wedding picture and now there are no copies. I mean when i had my copies on cd that was no biggy but i dont so i would like it back wouldn't you?

so he called me on my cell and i lost signal. So then when i got signal i guess he called back and left a message. he said well you hung up on me i was going to tell you if you send in another picture i will give this one back but you had to have your husband or boy friend or whatever say they are going to sue us over $10 IF YOU WANT TO BULLSHIT US WE WILL BULLSHIT RIGHT BACK AT YOU!!!

Well my uncle never said anything like that he just said i lost my copy of my wedding pictures and that the man should give me back my pictureand that we were never told about the $10 fee. But that if he would show him the "contract" i so called signed we would be more then happy to pay it.

Well They never asked to give me a copy of this so called contract which is illegal. but they did not have any computers or a copy machine. If any one is thinking about going there please PLEASE dont you will just get ripped off .

Jim & John are rip-off guys big time and i will be sending this to the news too so all will know.
