I signed my daughter up for a photo shoot with Thomas Street studio I'm London. After the photography a lady called us into the office and started sugar-coating and deceiving me into singing up for a contract with this studio. She mentioned how they will immediately put my daughter details into agencies who will immediately get modelling job for her after I made full payment of the contract. I said I could not afford to pay £1500 once buy she advised paying direct debit monthly but there's interest and my daughter won't be signed up for jobs until full payment. Because of how real she made everything looks and made my daughter begged me to sign her up I was pressured., then I decided to find way of getting money and make the payment twice.
This is August 2023, my daughter hasn't been called for any modelling job. If the lady was genuine l, honest, real and honest I could have gone home, think it through and talk to my daughter before paying that huge amount for getting nothing out of it.
Desired outcome: I require my full refund.
Sorry this happened to you. It happened to me in April this year and it’s been a really stressful experience. I would suggest blocking them and stopping any direct debits that they’ve set up along with reporting them to Action Fraud or Trading Standards. Hope it gets resolved for you xx
