Get Your Money Back - if you can ?

Mark Vella & Brian Evans who run a number of companies including Rendevous under the C.P Promotions banner, after the BBC UK's Worst Agents TV programme !

All of you that have paid a fee up front at hotel scouting seminars / castings which were run by the companies, controlled by Mr Mark Vella & Mr Brian Evans take note. Mr Evans has stated clearly to the press, in the Southampton evening Echo article copied below; that if persons have paid a fee at the seminars run by them under the C.P Promotions banner and any other name they run by under that banner - and were after that interview then taken on by REGARDEZ, being the agency that they own, then those who paid out twice are entitled to a refund of the rip off scouting fee.

Other company names which ran the hotel scouting seminars and come under the C.P Promotions company banner are :- Classic People, Open Door Promotions , B & M, & most recently Rendevous & Regardez

So, if you paid your fee in a hotel seminar to any of the above companies run by Mr Evans & Mr Vella over the many years they have run their scouting trips and then paid a fee again to join the agency run by them… REGARDEZ - now is the time to ask for the fee paid to the scouting company back !!

We congratulate the BBC UK’s Worst team for getting this result in 2003.

Please note that despite Mr Evans claim he would be suing the BBC, no action has been taken by either Mark Vella or Brian Evans against the TV programme which named & shamed their conduct and was brought about by numerous parents of children that reported the antics of the pair to the TV investigative programme.

The parents of many children and teenagers stated to the BBC that they believed they had been deliberately conned by the pair as it was never made clear at the scouting seminars held under various company names, that they were also running the agency REGARDEZ which offered them a contract for a further fee up front, having paid out a large sum already as a scouting fee.
