Who here has had experiences with Barbizon modeling company?

Because I received a call from them today inviting me to an audition. I am completely aware of the fact that there are many modeling scams, but I am very curious about this one. Any info would be helpful! Thanks :)

Answer #1

I have no personal experience with it, but a quick search brought up some information that makes you think twice:

“It has been about 5 weeks now since they took my money, I have not received even a courtesy call back and I have not received a refund. The charge is in dispute right now (which means I do not have to pay for it) and Barbizon’s merchant bank is being contacted by my credit card to get the funds back.”

“We left our contact numerous messages stating that we decided not to enroll our daughter, but received a receipt in the mail charging the full price of the class! I even noticed that my card was charged within minutes of my phone conversation!”

“hi i just tryed out for barbazon modeling and i made it. i found out it was a scam and all they wanted was your money. they had told me that they would call me back and never did .belive me its a rip off!!!!!!! “

Don’t use this as your means to make a final decision…just be careful.
