Review Time
My child applied to Models Direct about and was asked to pay £200 upfront for modelling opportunities, but after paying, the agency never responded or provided any jobs. Legitimate modelling agencies never ask for money upfront they earn only through commissions from actual work. You should be very careful, avoid this agency completely, as it appears to be a scam.”
My daughters had a profile since the 24/04/2024
We have had nothing since this date. Please don't waste your money. This has made my daughter feel upset as she was really looking forward to some modelling.
I'm now looking into new company , I have wasted my money here. I have a friend too who does a lot of modelling he has never heard of this company.....
What a sh1t show...….. communication is awful too. an email now and again to see your profile has been reviewed. keeps the suspense in action for you ! I wish i never signed up............ really feel bad for my daughter that i put trust in this company :(

I spoke to a lady called Anna, o begin with she was very nice. As soon as she mention registration fee (180) and a three year contract I had reservations, I have been modelling since I was 16 and have never been asked to pay a fee upfront. I explained these reservations and the response I got was "we're a government approved company" and then abruptly said "bye" and hung up. Even if I had second thoughts or wanted to go back to them in future I now 100% won't. As soon as I said I wasn't comfortable paying the tone and professionalism dropped (never in my career have I experienced this). After the call I was left feeling like they only care about signing you up. I asked if work was guaranteed and was told it wasn't, again in my previous experience as a model, every agency I have worked with guaranteed work within the first month. Models Direct is an international platform for thousands of people. Meaning that you're "competing" against the world. Though I can't comment on their service throughout, I can say that this is not the sort of agency to get into if you're looking for paid moddeling work. You could get lucky, but one in a million chance with this agency. The way I see it is like Vinted, you want to buy a bag but when you search, the results say 500+ then you start scrolling, about 20 minutes in you're either going to choose one of the first ones you see or go somewhere else. Now imagine this for a company booking one model with 1000's upon 1000's of applicants. I will be continuing to search for a more private agency that can represent me and guarantee me work. Not an angency I have to pay upfront, with no guarantee of work and people over the globe. It felt very impersonal and just that they're trying to get you to sign up. They will respond to this comment with their "government approved status" and that they "can't guarantee work" but an agency, especially one with upfront fees, should be able to guarantee work.
My first shoot with Models Direct todayI had all the relevant information ahead of time from Gemma who was in charge of the booking and she was on hand for any questions or queries. This enabled me to be prepared and relaxed for the day ahead.The shoot was so much fun, I was made to feel so comfortable from the outset ....if anything it almost felt like it was over too quickly! Gemma checked in with me again after the shoot and explained the post day process. I am so impressed with the care taken and the communication from Models Direct and really looking forward to doing more shoots,
Thankyou so much to Models Direct for an amazing experience for my daughter. She had an amazing day and loved being in front of the camera. Lovely team, who always answer any questions you have, and always at the end of the phone. Thankyou again!
I was greeted with friendly faces from the get go & had all the information I needed to feel safe in the inclusive environment provided. All staff were helpful & I had excellent guidance from Gemma, hope to work with her & Models Direct again soon!
