Metro Model Management Reviews

1/5

Skeptical and happy I read reviews first

Im glad I found all the reviews before signing up. Its so scary out there and awful someone would take advantage of people. I recv a call today from Nicole and wanted to do a little research first. She was so sweet and believable on the phone. She now lives in Georgia or thats what shes told me. $400 for x amount of time and $900 for a little longer and cant guarantee $400 but If I spent $900 she will guarantee me that my child will be recognized.

MMM SCAM

I made same mistake. They asked me to sign contract and told me they were going to do my new portfolio. So she ( Nicole ) took my photos. It was a surprise when I saw the pictures. “ Horrible pictures and never look professional “. So they are professionals stolen money for new subjects interested in going in that field.

Metro Model Management Photos Review from Fort Myers, Florida

My daughter did a photo shoot - cost me $1000. She took 5 pictures and never scheduled her for the rest that she promised. Got a job offer and traveled to New York for an entire day. She was to receive $70 an hour for 11 hours of work. Nicole was paid 2 weeks after the shoot on November 23, 2014. Nicole never paid my daughter. Blocked our numbers, never answered our calls. I want my money back plus my daughter's money that she worked all day for.

Empty Promises

I paid $700 for some very hurried pictures to be taken of my granddaughter. We were promised that no other child within a year age difference, with the same features (blonde hair, blue eyes,) would be signed with the agency, yet just ONE MONTH after we signed up, she also signed a child that was within 2 months of my granddaughter's age. Nicole apologized for her "oversight." My granddaughter is adorable, yet she was never found any work. We never received a call from any of Nicole's "bookers." We were also told to keep our eye on their FB page because they had lots of stuff for young children on the horizon, yet we never saw anything. Besides, isn't it up to the "bookers" to look for work for the children?

Don't Walk...Run from Nicole Carrasquillo aka Nicole Carr!

Scammed out of not only money for photos she took, but also never received payment for jobs worked. Who knew a lady with kids of her own would have not a second thought to rip off little kids. If the law doesn't catch up to these thieves, Karma surely will. Agency recently changed address, phone # and 'management'. I expect them to show up as some other rip off modeling agency. Watch OUT for Nicole Carrasquillo aka Nicole Carr aka Metro Modeling Agency Llc aka Metro Model Management. Check all ratings on BBB and never pay for photos, don't learn the hard way.

Avoid this scam

Same thing happened to me. I was promised a role on a hit TV within 24 hours of signing with MMM. It seemed legit because the dates Nicole told me to be available and the filming dates I found via other sources online matched up. A few days later Nicole contacted me to say that the filming had been postponed and should be rescheduled within the next few weeks. I never heard back. I feel completely taken advantage of, and I'm out $700. Can anyone offer any advice as to what to do. MMM's Facebook page is the only thing I can seem to find online that offers any evidence that it is still a running company. Nicole offered me her personal cell # and when I tried to call there was of course no answer and a full inbox.

The TRUTH

This IS MMM and my name is Nicole Carrasquillo, Nicole Carr is my business name as I do not like to write out my entire name for business and it sounds much better which all of my talent know. We were never kicked out of our old office we had a three year lease and moved to a better location. I do run my entire business and dont have kids running my office.There is a receptionist along with four bookers. If you have been to my office you would know this. We have a select number of talent and act as your manager and never want a ton of kids on our site. I only take what I can handle. I am the photographer along with Scott who does our high fashion(a different kind of shoot). I dont base my success on how many employees I have, I base it on how many jobs I book. One of the number one agencies in Philadelphia, Reinhard has THREE employess. If you have questions call MMM. Have a great day!

Metro Model Management Kicked out of Office!

Be warned dealing with this company they were just evicted from their office (landlord obviously did not want a scam running in his building) and have now moved to a new location. They have been nothing but trouble and like Gypsies move from place to place. Our team of investigators have diligently been working with law enforcement to have this fake agency booted out of the state. If you have been scammed by metro model management you need to submit a tip to FOX Undercover by calling 1-800-TV-FOX25. Please reference the date you were scammed and how much money the average victim seems to be around $2000.00 for photos taken by the owner who happens to be the booker , receptionist and salesperson all in one.

Photo Scam more lies then Sand on the Beach!

They told my 18 year old son he would be modeling in NYC if he paid $2000.00 for photos, had him undress to his underwear and when he couldn't pay asked him to leave. This place is about the money. They wont give a refund. They may say your deposit is totally refundable. It's more likely that your deposit would be refundable only if you meet very strict refund conditions. Or, you might be told that talent experts will evaluate your chances at success in the field, accept only a few people into the program, and give refunds to anyone not selected. What they don't tell you is that the program takes virtually everyone.

Metro model management scam Philadelphia

Metro model management Philadelphia scam Submitted and was contacted by Nicole. Told that the portfolio I already have would not do and I would need to pay for one created by her photographers (I believe she said she does the shooting). The cost would be upwards of $600-$2000! When I questioned her (why not a recommended list of several photographers?), she said this was the way the "big" agencies do it (kept throwing FORD and Elite out there). Highly skeptical. When I asked her some other questions, she became rather hostile. Declined her offer to come in and do an evaluation (which would have been on a Saturday or Sunday...why not during normal business hours?) Not worth your time...go elsewhere. All they do is lie and are good at it found out later the owner is a former ***
