"A total scam/ + wasted time"

A scam and a joke.
Avoid at all COSTS!!!

Very brief: The £50 is not even refundable, still waiting for them to process but they were quick to ask for it. You are asked to go for a "test" photo-shooting for 15 minutes then you are pressured to choose a "package" that will NEVER guarantee that you will get the jobs they are talking about, as they have no actual proof of collaborations, a lot of blabla.

Absolute time wasters, I went in completely blinded as had no time to investigate it properly, only afterwards I woke up and did some actual research.

It is NOT A MODEL AGENCY, NOT A REFERAL AGENCY, they just push you to pay double/triple prices for a so called portfolio that will start your career. Nope, don't believe in it as it is not true. For 10 photos £500 and £2500 for the "business" package 40 photos, some airbrushed etc that will boost your new career 😂😂😂
No transparency as you are not told about at any point anything about the fees. Pretty sure they are crossing some legal stuff too, so most probably should be reported.

For £300/£500 you get an actual professional photo session, at your own pace with your chosen outfits/ ideas etc.


Later edit/ reply to the below: yes, sadly I haven't done my research to understand it is a scam, if you also have a better look and research on what it is being said about your "trusted" agency then it is much more clear. Yes - I saw a lady that was meant to travel from Manchester but after reading all about it from others who were scammed she gave up, so yes, thanks, the reviews speak more than you think. One week has passed and you guys still continue to lie about the refund 😂😂 (wish trystpilot will allow posting photos so I can take screenshot of the conversation with Steven Penrose?). I really hope the real reviews and ratings - like mine will reflect the reality, not the fake and paid ones. Definitely a bitter lesson

"The photo shoot went well at…"

The photo shoot went well at Manchester.
The company honoured its promise for recommending modelling agencies to me to register.

"Quite a good experience "

They provide good care and they make you believe you can do it and hopefully they'd be right and hopefully they'll keep in touch because I still really need their help because as a person who is new in the industry you won't be knowing what step is next and which one to take, so I think what the company needs to do is to help you through the agencies for you to be one step ahead

"It was my first time in modeling"

It was my first time in modeling, but they encourage me and make me confident. The place is very friendly as well people of the place. I really really appreciate tham and thanks for everything.

"First ever photoshoot"

First ever photoshoot, went to Manchester. It was brilliant! Had no idea what I was doing but the photographer showed me everything and I can’t believe how good the images turned out! They’re putting me forward to 3 different agencies and building me a website. Rebbecca explained how the industry works and gave me and gave me some great advice. Excited to move forward!

"friendly and welcoming "

good communication, very accommodating, friendly helpful staff

"I was welcomed well and in a smiling way.They explained everything clearly."

I was welcomed well and smiling

"My experience with the team at New idol…"

My experience with the team at New idol as I walked into the studio was friendly as made me feel relaxed and welcome

They made me feel comfortable and at ease as they took the photos

The whole experience was very good as they explained everything in detail without any pressure of a commitment

I would recommend this company for their quick and easy process As they look after you with care and attention
