Question

Is bizzykids a good child modelling agency,as they r asking for £120 upfront. i've been messed about b4?

Answer 1

Have you ever had to pay for a job? They should be paying you for work. This sounds like a scam.

Answer 2

Any modeling agency that asks you to pay money upfront is a scam.

Read this website and bookmark it, it has a lot of good information:  http://www.newmodels.com

Answer 3

no modeling agenency will ask for money up front until u make money from call outs. and then they will have a agent fee for every call out u do.

Answer 4

I've heard that Bizzykids supply a lot of the children for BBC programmes.

They wanted my son but we couldn't really afford to spend that sort of money, also my other half wasn't keen on the whole modelling thing for him.  They can't guarantee you work, only that they will "represent" you and you might not actually get any work from them at all.

Having said that, most of the top agencies do charge a registration fee, you just have to be careful and go for the ones who are accredited (members of recognised Governing bodies which regulate Model Agencies etc) to make sure its not a scam.
