Avoid this company if you want legitimate work.
Reviewed on 2021-05-25T11:08:18
No legitimate talent company needs to charge a fee. The fact that 'Star now' has rolled out an extortionate 'subscription'model should set off alarm bells.
I strongly encourage any aspiring models/actors/extra's to avoid this company.

Not Recommended!
Apparently a lot of people complaint about the subscription fee because it does rip off.I ask them why they do not set up a reminder for customer to ask if they wish to continue using their services? Very Bad experience~
Hey Cameron, Jamie and Nigel.
Is this the only way you making money?if THIS IS the only way you making money from people, are you doing the right way? Another not trustworthy company....

Daylight robbery!
Reviewed on 2021-05-04T10:15:46
I have been signed up to StarNow for years with a standard profile. Suddenly in 2021 they have decided to take approximately £29 out of my bank account.Their reasoning being -
“Your StarNow subscription renews automatically. The details of our recurring payment system are provided when you first subscribe - and available to view at any time in our Terms and Conditions.”
I NEVER agreed to any such subscription which would allow them to take my money. They also told me to check my membership plan via a link however there is no written information on there about what a standard member actually is.
Strange I have been signed up without paying anything for years and suddenly during a pandemic when everyone is struggling they’re stealing from people. This is daylight robbery. Be very cautious.

I am so disappointed with this company , they are openly robbing you . I subscribed for my daughter sometime in October and paid for a year,today the company changed me again of over £29 . I already unsubscribed and don’t use their service and can’t get a refund,Apparently as per their policy. It’s a disgrace and I will continue emailing you every day if I have to to get my money back.

I have been a long time member of StarNow. I feel sick as I have only just advocated for this site recently.I had a membership upgrade happen in April 2020 - 6 monthly membership - it was for 11.94AUD (have email evidence). Today, I noticed StarNow took out $38.94 for this membership. I asked for it to be revoked, but apparently a 2 part yearly membership started in October (no correspondence) and I can only get a refund 30 days prior to the the October portion being taken out. Now, the last membership email I received was in April 2020 for the 6 monthly subscription. No email to say I was now on a bi-annual membership and no email to inform me of the price increasing by more than TRIPLE the amount! They used to be a great platform, as I have used them in the past many many years ago. Sadly, not anymore.

Someone has made a fake account of me on this website, using photos of me aged 12-14 and Starnow won't delete the account due to me not knowing any of the account details.How am I meant to know account details when its a Fake account?????
I have advised them in writing that they do not have my permission to use the photos, or store them on their system. I would like the account removed ASAP.
Absolutely appalling services, causing me numerous anxiety attacks. I will be taking legal action and reporting to the police. Please, please avoid this website.
