Complaint Review: Kids - Just Our Kids

I am listing my story after reading others on this site about the kids.com ripoff.

I also received a letter in the mail saying they heard about my child. I was skeptical, but they looked okay on the BBB and making my appointment on the phone they sounded legit and said they didn't want money.

Well, when you get there it's a different story, they flash all of these ads of their kids modeling for popular products and seduce parents who are really only guilty of thinking their kid is the cutest kid on earth.

Then they explain the nominal $595.00 fee which they have you believing isn't much considering that your child will get plenty of offers. Yeah, I was suckered in and my husband too.

After thinking about it, I knew I was scammed. First and foremost that personal touch they like to keep with their clients, I haven't had in the past two years. Second, I realize know that any legit modeling agency, doesn't make you pay. Lastly, they do offer a contract in which you don't have to pay, but by signing it you state that you do all of the work, you make a personal website, you solicit modeling agencies and list them as contact agent and do nothing else. How is that a deal, yeah you don't pay the $595 fee, but you do 100% of the work and they want commision?

No wonder, we get more cynical as we get older.
