My wife and I got their application business card size at Six Flags, MA. It was Saturday, 09/19/2009. The application shows 5 check boxes: Modeling, Singing, Dancing, Acting and Other. My 7-year-old daughter is a singer. My 14-year-old son is a piano player. I filled out the application checking off ""Singing"". I had just signed up my daughter. They called us 4 days later to set up the appointment to see my daughter. I asked them questions like: ""How much will I have to pay?"", ""Will she have to perform to you?"". The representative (""B"") answered saying it was free and that the interviewer would explain everything. Well, at that time, we were really happy. Even though it was a long trip. The appointment took place on 09/26/2009 (Saturday). Believe or not, everyone woke up at 5 a.m. We left home at 6 a.m. Brockton, MA to Norwalk, CT (177 miles - 3 hours). Representative made sure to let us understand we could not get there late. We also would need 2 forms of ID. They were late 15 minutes. My daughter's interview started at 10:15 with interviewer ""M"". What a 'SCAM'. He was capable to convince us my son could also be in. After being there listening to him for over 15 minutes and seeing books and books of pictures, I finally asked him about the cost. Then, ""M"" pulled out a price list which starts at $550.00 for 1 picture (8 by 10, I think). And the highest and the best package for $5,500.00 . And If I included my son, I would only have to pay for $11,000.00 (only!). The real things was that I had signed up my daughter (a real singer) to sing and not for modeling. He offered $300.00 out of his pocket. Then, he tried to play with my feelings by saying: ""Don't tell me dad you will not do this for them after driving all the way from MA to CT?! My answer was very simple: Yes, I will. And I would do it again. I would go to Texas if needed to. But I will be more cautious. Your people should at least save us time, gas and money by answering our questions properly when asked over the phone. You and your company should at least take in consideration those ones out of the state. ""Ok, dad. Let's do it this way: I will give you 3 days from now so you and mom can think about it. But I will at least need your credit card information to process this ""order"". If you don't call within 3 days from now, the money will not be refunded."" I said no. No way. You will never get any other information from me. And we are out of here. So, people, just be very careful. This ""INTER FACE TALENT NETWORK"" is a real scam. I have already contacted ""CT Best Business Bureau"" and they asked me to call a Attorney General office. It's such waste of time. The company should be shut down. Luckily, in spite of spending money on clothe, gas and food, at least they didn't get any money from me.
