BBC Radio Walk-on Parts… Up-Front. Thanks to BBC Radio One 21Nov07 & BBC Radio Essex 22Nov07, for highlighting the governments false claim/announcement on 20Nov07; that up-front fees at hotel venues had been banned. This is the second time the government has proudly announced – their ban; which does not actually ban up-front fees… The government talks about vulnerable workers; but they are only vulnerable; because they are open to such widespread scams; where 90 of those who pay up front; never get work. We are talking about thousands and thousands of would be performers; who are scammed each year; who pay up to £1,000 or more to a so called agency; on the promise of work; that never materialises. The government clearly thinks that taking money up-front; under false pretences; should continue; which is why the government has never taken a prosecution against any agency; in this way; shame!
