“Please reply, if you have been wronged by YUMM
Hello,
Please do not join this agency. Very bad staff and unresponsive when needed. They never got enough good jobs and most of the jobs are fake.
I paid a £1000 deposit after taking a look at the deposit. I have followed all the rules and they promised to give the deposit back in a year. It's already been 2 months since the contract ended, and the staff has been unresponsive. It doesn't seem they have the intention to give the deposit back.
Hence I am willing to file a case on YUMM in the small court. I need some help with this. I wanna show the court that this is happening to everyone, who joined the agency and it is a scam. Please fill out the form and it can be filled out anonymously. https://forms.gle/rh9QYUNZi3WR7Q1M9”
“Please, I encourage everyone to report it to https://reportfraud.ftc.gov/#/. Maximum reports they get, they can start on the case and get all our money back.”
“I have done everything that is required in the contract and they have confirmed it. I have provided my bank details and still since that email from 3rd of May I am waiting... They have stopped responding to my emails and I have taken this to the small claims court.”
“SCAM- don’t fall for the positive reviews they make you leave them to get your first ever photos from the photo shoot. You aren’t allowed them without leaving a good review-please don’t fall for this company they will steal your money. They also manipulate you when you go in”
“WARNING Just don’t even think about joining this so called agency . They will lie and take your money and give you nothing in return . I contacted one of their so called models on their social media , she confirmed she had NEVER worked with them and they are using her photos without her permission.
Please DO NOT let your children or young adults go to the agency . They will coerce and pressure them into signing up for a premium package , costing thousands and giving them nothing in return. Them when you try to exercise your right to cancel or get your ‘deposit’ back you are ignored and lied to again. Absolutely shocking that they can continue to do this .”
“This site is a scam with pervs and liars stalking children on social media to lure them into inappropriate, disrespectful, unethical, non value based trickery. I WOULD NOT RECOMMEND THEM TO ANYONE!!!”
“At first I was kinda hesitant to join Yummy but still give it a shot! And I can say that I have made a good decision, in all fairness they're all helping with my photoshoot and training. The staff are patient and friendly. So definitely a 5⭐ for me!😊”
“This site is a SCAM! Most of the 'models' on it are fake, obviously created by modelmanagement to hook in others - proof is in that no faces are known or seen on ANY other portfolio site, and I am a long term member of them all. This is basically like a fake dating site, it uses stolen photos to try to get people to buy their subscription, and when you do, it gives you nothing. The castings are fake and they want access to your Instagram for site approval (asks to you give them security access via Instagram, not just give a link - red flag!) This is a fake site looking to steal details and get money from working photographers like myself.
DO NOT USE THIS FAKE SCAMMING SITE.
I have gone as far as to report this site to UK trading standards this morning, and also to the UK Police as it seems to be likely to be fraudulant.
They have tried to report this review however I joined this site this week and has this experience. They're asking me for details I don't have and or don't wish to give a site scamming details. I am furthering my report with trading standards. Trying to have a genuine review removed because it's the truth is another red flag.”
“0 castings were found through the platform. No notifications on the renewal of the subscription, and when it has been renewed, they refused to make a refund right after. I don't recommend this service to anyone.”
“SCAM SCAM SCAM ARTIST!!
Don't know why they post on job site looking for models and actors. you do the photo shoot then, you pay money I paid £110 non work no agent they just kept saying an agent will contact me two weeks pass nothing then, they wouldn't answer their calls or email, or get back to you. everyone working with them is a scam and should be locked up for preying on vounuable talented people who are trying to make it in the industry”
“I have gotten nothing but scams from
This place I took a leap of faith and paid for the premium and nothing has come of it in 2 months I wanted to cancel as I'm unhappy and wanted my
Money back and now they are denying to do anything about it. I haven't made an income in over 10 years due to health and recently got divorced I just started making money training horses in the last month and the last couple of weeks I have been dealing with health stuff again and couldn't work so I haven't gotten paid. Im why on money to pay for fuel at the end of this week and was hoping I'd get this money back since it's a sham but they won't do anything. Stay away from this place and save your money.”
“A year ago I went into YUMM, photos were taken (not great) training was offered along with the world basically! The one thing I will say Meni who was the person I dealt with was great. Professional friendly and patient. After a year of no jobs which I blame no one for I am now at the stage where the initial deposit should be refunded, I have emails confirming this would be done, two months on no deposit and no contact, trying to phone them and I receive a rude and quite aggressive response, the person even hung up the phone due to the fact I was pressing as to why I haven’t received any communication or my refund. Customer service is absolutely poor this side of the experience I have never had anyone hang up the phone on me for asking fair question. As it stands I still have not received my refund and I will be pressing ahead to ensure this happens.”
“Avoid, Avoid, Avoid, Yumm Model Management aka Michy Studios are both a pack of False Pretenders and Lowlife Scum.
Don't join up with these; disgusting, despicable Putrid Horrible people.
No Agency in the world would as you to part with money to find you work. Report these Thieving Distainful Animals to the; Citizens Advice Bureau or The Action Fraud Team. It's time to take down and destroy these Chutiya's.”
“Don’t trust this agency, everything what they say is a lie. They don’t refund deposit back despite following all their rules and conditions of the contract. They simply stop responding to your emails.”
“Don't believe the positive reviews because they are not serious, they got my money and even though I sent them many emails to get it back because I'm not interested in working with them, they don't reply! I warn you! run away from them”
“hi YUMM, I want to thank you for the past couple of months with you. Although I didn't able to get any projects I learned a lot. Maybe, I will come back better. Thank you for my refund. You're the best!”
