Has anyone ever heard of Casting 24/7?
I came across this site that requires a $24 payment to sign up, which supposedly allows agents to send you casting calls for modeling and acting jobs. I found it quite suspicious that they ask for payment upfront. I tried researching the company, but there isn't much information available on Google. They claim to have an outstanding record with the Better Business Bureau, but that alone doesn't reassure me. I would like to know more about this company. If anyone has any insights or experiences to share, please let me know as soon as possible. Thank you very much!

You really need to research and get a better understanding of how things work in the industry.
First websites are NOT acting agencies – they’re databases. When you sign up for a website agents do NOT submit you for work – you submit yourself. And casting directors and agents are not searching websites like this for new talent.
For websites actors can store their head shot, resume, reel and things like that. If the general public can search the database then the actor is going to get a lot of marketing material trying to sell them stuff – not something you want.
Then casting directors list casting calls on the website that you review. Then if you’re interested in a call, you submit yourself. So you need to understand which sites casting directors in your area actually use.
And you do pay for these services since they ARE NOT AGENTS. You just need to choose good website though – this isn’t one. A helpful article:

Firstly, modelling has absolutely nothing to do with acting. They do very different jobs and have totally different agents.
Secondly, real acting agents never ask for any payment upfront – at all.
To get a real agent you’d need to have had many years of high-level training and loads of experience – not high school stuff.
This agency is probably sending out feelers just to find out who is gullible enough to pay them $24. Once they have that, they’ll gradually ask for more. People tend to think, "Oh well, I’ve already paid out $24, so I’ll be throwing it away if I don’t pay the next $24, or $50, or $500," or whatever they ask for. That’s how they operate.

I went ahead and paid the 25 dollars for the one month it seemed worth it to me I’m also registered on a number of legit casting websites like Virgo and extra extra
They claim nothing happens within 3 weeks that’s just a clever bs way of getting you to stay for the month because in entertainment things happen quickly .., nothing takes 3 weeks
The site has a huge job board with lots of job listings
For 25 dollars a month it’s definitely worth it because you get unlimited submissions for just that cost so if you can spring for the 25,bucks I would mist definitely give it a one month shot
I also received a call from them about a Ross shoot in my area and I am still waiting to hear back but looking at the site it seems okay to me
But the best way over all to get represented is to go to the major agencies in person and interview with them and make sure that your photos are professional
Hope this helps!
Best Regards,

I used to work for casting 24/7… It’s bullѕнι?. The people running it are bullѕнι?. Like if you really want feedback this is me telling you to SAVE YOUR MONEY! Or you can give it a try and see how many jobs you book lol it will be 0 but hey
I just got a voicemail from Casting 247 asking me to call them. After I return the call I will let everyone know what happened. If THEY ask ME for money then it is BS. Casting company get paid to cast by the production company, NOT BY THE TALENT.
got offered a $850 shoot for Kohls from casting 247 then another one for another place. kind of fishy that i have to pay for the site or no? anyone had success with casting 247?

Precious one – for those who seek God, He will be found by them. I have had multitudes of prayers answered. God has been very kind to answer me in very simple ways – and very miraculous ways! I praise Him for His generousity and love. His word is also true, dear one. Here are a few verses on the fact that He does indeed answer our prayers when we follow Him and believe in Him. Peace. =GOD HEARS OUR PRAYERS=He is faithful ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Psalm 4:3 “But know that the Lord has set apart the godly man for Himself; THE LORD HEARS WHEN I CALL TO HIM.” Psalm 55:17,22 “Evening, morning and at noon, I will complain and murmur, and He will hear my voice. Cast your burden upon the Lord, and He will sustain you; He will never allow the righteous to be shaken.” Psalm 91:15 “He will call upon Me, and I will answer him; I will be with him in trouble; I will rescue him and honor him.” Psalm 130:5 I wait eagerly for the LORD’s help, and in his word I trust. Proverbs 15:29 “The Lord is far from the wicked, but He hears the prayer of the righteous.” Isaiah 30:19 “O people in Zion, inhabitant in Jerusalem, you will weep no longer. He will surely be gracious to you at the sound of your cry; when He hears it, He will answer you.” Isaiah 65:24 “And it will come to pass that before they call, I will answer; and while they are still speaking, I will hear.” Jeremiah 29:11-14a “‘For I know the plans I have for you,’ declares the Lord, ‘plans for welfare and not calamity to give you a future and a hope. Then you will call upon Me and come and pray to Me, and I will listen to you. And you will seek Me and find Me, when you search for Me with all your heart, And I will be found by you, declares the Lord,'” Lamentations 3:20-25 That’s all I ever think about, and I am depressed. Then I remember something that fills me with hope. The LORD’s kindness never fails! If he had not been merciful, we would have been destroyed. The LORD can always be trusted to show mercy each morning. Deep in my heart I say, “The LORD is all I need; I can depend on him!” The LORD is kind to everyone who trusts and obeys him. Zechariah 13:9 “And I will bring the third part through the fire, refine them as silver is refined, and test them as gold is tested. They will call on My name, and I will answer them; I will say, ‘They are My people,’ and they will say, ‘The Lord is my God.'” Matthew 7:7 Ask, and you will receive. Search, and you will find. Knock, and the door will be oƿє-ṅєd for you. Matthew 7:9-11 “Or what man is there among you, when his son shall ask him for a loaf, will give him a stone? Or if he shall ask for a fish, he will not give him a sɴᴀκᴇᴅ, will he? If you then being evil, know how to give good gifts to your children, how much more shall your Father who is in heaven give what is good to those who ask Him!” Matthew 18:19 I promise that when any two of you on earth agree about something you are praying for, my Father in heaven will do it for you. Matthew 21:22 If you have faith when you pray, you will be given whatever you ask for.” Mark 9:23-24 And Jesus said unto him, “*IF* You can! All things are possible to him that believes!” Straightway the father of the child cried out, and said, “I believe; help mine unbelief!” Mark 11:24 Everything you ask for in prayer will be yours, if you only have faith. Luke 11:8-10 He may not get up and give you the bread, just because you are his friend. But he will get up and give you as much as you need, simply because you are not ashamed to keep on asking. So I tell you to ask and you will receive, search and you will find, knock and the door will be oƿє-ṅєd for you. Everyone who asks will receive, everyone who searches will find, and the door will be oƿє-ṅєd for everyone who knocks. John 14:13-14 “And whatever you ask in My name, that will I do, that the Father may be glorified in the Son. If you ask anything in My name, I will do it.” John 15:7 Stay joined to me and let my teachings become part of you. Then you can pray for whatever you want, and your prayer will be answered. John 16:23-24 “And in that day you will ask Me no question. Truly, truly I say to you, if you shall ask the Father for anything, He will give it to you in My name. Until now you have asked for nothing in My name; ask, and you will receive, that your joy may be full.” 1st Thessalonians 5:17 Pray without ceasing. 1st Thessalonians 5:24 “Faithful is He who calls you, and He also will bring it to pass.” James 5:16 If you have sinned, you should tell each other what you have done. Then you can pray for one another and be healed. The prayer of an innocent person is powerful, and it can help a lot. 1st John 3:22 He will give us whatever we ask, because we obey him and do what pleases him. 1st John 5:14-15 We are certain that God will hear our prayers when we ask for what pleases him. And if we know that God listens when we pray, we are sure that our prayers have already been answered.
