I am still waiting for a refund, or even a response from them. More than a year ago they collected $169.00 plus shipping and handling from me for what? Well I thought it was for a trophy that was representing a good job in photography but all I have got to date is a bunch of run around and phone bills from waiting on hold for 30 to 45 minutes at a time, numerous times, just to be told the same thing and that is " I'm sorry ma'am but all we can do is put in another request for a refund " but here I am still waiting so if anybody is getting what they order from this company consider yourselves very fortunate because i think you are one in very few. STILL WAITING!!!!

It's the photography version of the vanity press book. People submit photos, they are then told that they have been "selected" to be entered in a book or a contest. Then they sucker the photographers into buying a trophy or a copy of a photo book that shows all of the "winning" photos. In the end, they make a lot of money and you are left with an award that has no value among professional photographers. Not exactly a scam. They do sell trophies. They do make and sell books. The product just isn't worth the money and it is definitely not something you want in your credits.

After reading the report about the International Society being a scam I felt it was right to rebut this report. Although their methods of communications need a great deal of work, I have found them to be OK. I received everything they promises and although frustrated many times becaise of the lack of communications with them , I do really belived they are not a Scam but a company who keeps to its commitment.

I have tried to find my report along with all the others on this company and I don't see mine included in them. Can you tell me why I'm not finding it? What can be done to stop these people from staying in business? Can we have a class action suit against them? Will any of us ever see our money from them that they stoled?
