Project Casting

I tried to get more information before paying the $239.99. I was lead to believe that I would only pay $19.99 monthly, and not pay out right $239.99 all at once. It's not explain to you that they will take the full amount instead of $19.99 monthly. Within 3 minutes I had cancel the subscription and immediately demand for my refund. That was 2 weeks ago and some clown name Jonathan seems to be the only person in their Support department. He is dragging his feet about my refund, which, he claims can be 50% less from what I paid. I am still waiting for my money. Stick with Backstage. Casting Networks or Casting Frontier. Project Casting is a COMPLETE SCAM. Fool actors into thinking you can be cast through their site. NOPE!

I register my son in May 2023 and like many of us I did not do the proper research. This site is trash and should not be able to keep peoples hard earned money when they know they cannot deliver. When you are on the site it's so hard to navigate their postings and I wish you could better filter your search like age and gender or better yet have it customize to the member's profile. They do not remove old posts I was on the site searching to find 80% of those listings were already expired meaning the shots dates were already passed. I emailed them to request a refund within the same month they ask what was the issue and when I told him about the expired posts I never got a response back.

Unfortunately i hit the wrong button on my tablet that was operating slowly and paid for a full year by mistake. And of course 'all sales are final'….can't even say "ooops, i didn't mean to do that" right away and get a refund.
I filled out my info anyway but honestly, its full of stuff I can find elsewhere that im already paying for.
Some compassion for mistakes made like this should be handled better I think. Thx

I am a UK based Casting Director and started receiving submissions from this company. I did NOT give them permission to post. I am not even registered with them. I received submissions from talent in the US, when the shoot is UK. None were even on brief. It is a total waste of time for those applying and for me & is an infringement on my copyright.

I have emailed them four times asking who posted my casting. They just reply with "Thanks for your feedback".

I have expressed concerns to them that they are posting castings without verifying the client's credentials, or even if the job is genuine. I cannot tell you how dangerous this is. They could potentially be linking up vulnerable models & actors with some very unsavoury characters.

DO NOT USE THIS COMPANY. There are plenty of legitimate casting companies out there.

Honestly, if you apply for a casting they cant even tell you what casting you've applied to, and they have no response system set up like (thanks for applying to ETC). You're just wasting your money. They don't give you any email updates for your profile of which you create to join this site. All the responses are generic and they honestly are not helpful at all. This is the worst casting company to go through. Just do your research because this place is not it.

I'm a castng director in New Zealand. These people are not legit actors agency and sent out my brief without my knowledge. I have had submission through them months after the job ended. The poor child will be disappointed to learn that this agency is probably nothing but a BOT.

Do not waste your money here. These people are scammers. I paid for a one year subscription and they auto-drafted my account for a second year without my knowledge. They do not have a phone number and will refuse to refund the annual subscription charge when you contact them by email.

I kept receiving these emails to sign up for outrageous casting notices and emails had only one button: Upgrade now. I clicked it, and it led me to a website with no information, now way to check to see if these casting breakdowns were real or not and when I clicked next, it took me to paypal where automatically I was charged an outrageous amount without showing me what amount I would be charged. I tried to reverse charges of $239.99 and I was unsuccessful. The breakdowns on the website are not legitimate and the whole website is a scam.
I requested multiple times to be refunded this amount I was charged without my consent and they never replied to any of my emails. On Paypal they refused to refund my money and they offered to refund only $119.
This is a ripoff, and I am here to warn others about this company.

I had a great experience with Project Casting with my very first casting call job. They were able to help me with all my casting needs and were very professional. I would definitely recommend them to anyone in need of casting services. Thank you Project Casting!

Project Casting' constantly copy our posts from our Facebook page and posts them to their website. Unfortunately, they add to it, or switch the wording around to try and make it seem as if the info is coming directly from them. They use the words "xxxx company" is casting. This company adds additional info such as "Open Casting Call", "Looking for Actors" that is not on the original post. They've done this several times before, and we end up getting hundreds of emails from all over the world, which clogs our inbox and continues for months. It makes it extremely difficult for us to check the legitimate submissions and slows down our casting process.

Foolishly I found Project Casting online and did no research before signing up for a year pro VIP membership. Within a month I realized that the notices that were being sent were first off, few and far between and moreover they were all the same as I was finding elsewhere (like they just copied Boston Casting notices for example). Not only that, each day they would send me an automated email to up my membership to VIP (pro or premium - they call it all three) even though I already paid for a pro account. I've attached a screen shot asking me to upgrade after over a month of having upgraded. I found out that my profile was not coming up in searches for those who had paid for a pro account. In fact, my profile didn't come up at all in searches. Furthermore when I went to contact "customer service" I discovered there was no phone number for this company and the help link on the website leads to a dead page. Emailing them only resulted in automatic replies and a run around with no answers, no help and ignoring my request for a refund. The current Better Business Bureau score for this so-called company is an F. There are no good reviews to be found of this fake company other than a few shills and sadly there seems to be no recourse. Do yourself a favor and do NOT utilize this site. Backstage, Actors Access and Casting Networks are all legit and have better and more up to date notices. Stay away from this site like the plague. I'm sure this will get an auto reply from the company saying the same thing they have said for years. How this fake scam hasn't been shut down by now is beyond me. Stay away!

No phone number. No answer to emails. Refused cancellation request within one month of usage. If they're legitimate why would they refuse to let you cancel? Go to Backstage.com - don't waste your time and money on this one.

They claimed to help actors, but they steal your money and they only offer background work. The background work you find for FREE on backstage and other websites. DO NOT trust these scammers. They have been doing the scam for over 7 years and they need to be shut down. The website charges $108 automatically even if you only want to purchase one month! They never answers their e-mail and they don't have a phone number or customer service line! I have never seen or experienced anything like this with other companies. They need to closed down!

They set me up with a fraudulent company that almost got $3500 Canadian from me. Then they would not answer my messages asking if they worked with this company.

I worked with PC on Cobra Kai Season 4 and it was amazing. They are the best at keeping in touch with you and they remember you. That means a lot to me and I am sure it will to you as well.

This has been a terrible experience. They billed me for a year, when I only wanted a month. And I can't apply to jobs,because they keep telling me to upgrade.

Horrible casting service.
Why would a legit company send scamming emails? Horny women pictures to lure men for pills. Photoshopped picture of Elon Musk claiming to give free electricity to everyone.
