Vance Peyton Miller who runs Advance LA is truly a despicable man.

They asked me to pay a sum of $5, 900 prior to receiving any classes, and wanted my credit card info over the phone so that they could charge their standard procedure fee - a $100 deposit. A few days later when I visited the bank - I discovered that $2800 had been charged to my credit card!!!

I immediately drove by the office to speak to Vance and his partner German Morales but they were nowhere to be found. I also left a thousand unanswered messages on Vance's voicemail - but to no avail. He had simply vanished into thin air.

The whole experience was so disgusting and degrading - I can't even begin to put it into words. The police have been notified and I was told that I needed to get in touch the Better Business Bureau...so I have...I am also taking the matter to court...

I can't believe I was foolish enough to give out my info...

Let this be a warning to everyone out there...do some research beforehand...and never..I mean never give out your credit card info or pay a dime to any talent agency. They should never ask for money upfront. EVER...They are paid on a commision basis only...
