The PRS for Music just dont care about you
Reviewed on 2021-02-27T22:07:06
I am writer and I compose music for TV shows but have had paid work through other means and the PRSis supposed to collect those royalties where contracts and agreements are in place especially seeing as I paid them £100 membership fee but it just doesnt work like that.
I constantly have to chase unpaid forgotten royalties that are due to me annually on the same date that never ever get paid and contacting the PRS is a joke in terms of getting a response because they barely ever respond or give a reason. I am sick to death of them demonstrating how much they dont care enriching themselves with a cut of our money and hassling people playing a radio in a factory for payments while we starve and have to give up music and get real jobs because of their incompetence.

Absolutely shocking service.
The incompetence from this company is the worst I have seen in all my years in business.In fact all the years I have been in business, this company has caused problems and cannot get anything right.
Every year they either mess up my payment plan, or when I call and say let me pay any outstanding balances in full, I think I have done this and then they chase you 3 years later for an apparent outstanding balance. When I ask for proof of this I get ignored and then told my case has been handed over to collection agency.
They are diabolic, I would suggest not using them if you were not forced to do business with, but they have you over a barrel.

Legalised Extortion
Reviewed on 2021-01-30T07:46:28
No one plays their first gig in a stadium, so grassroots music venues perform a crucial early role in the development of new artists.Without the 945 such venues in the UK it’s debatable whether PRS would have any royalties to collect.
With this in mind it may come as a shock to learn that PRS actually charge cash strapped venues such as ours thousands of pounds in royalties for showcasing music that we collectively acted as midwife to. This sort of practice seems to be unique to the UK; elsewhere collections agencies lavish the grassroots sector with financial support to ensure that fledgling artists have access to world class facilities. Here they’re more interested in bleeding it dry. It’s legalised extortion is what it is.

PRS need to read the room. If you don't support grass roots now you'll only have Coldplay in supermarkets.No-one wants that. Stop helping yourself to the money at this difficult time.
