Madissun, I am not surprised at all. I never received any contact from her after the initial payment until I sent her a nasty email explaining my disappointment. It was then that she extended our contract my 6 months and "Assured" us he would get work in that extra time.
Needless to say, we never EVER heard from her again. Not even to touch base, not for a job, and not even to let us know that our contract was lapsing
I'll be crossing Tinlids off the list then. Sorry to hear it hasn't worked out so far.
We entered a competition at the baby expo with Munchkins agency, we got the "sorry you didn't win but we'd like to offer you a runners up prize" email, along with everyone else that entered I'm sure. I thought I'd meet with them and see what happens.
There are quite a few agencies around, and their websites make them sound great, if only they were all as good as they say!
