in I won! I won! I won!
has anyone ever heard of them? i have just had a phone call saying i have won 2 vip tickets for a photo shoot. i was immediately suspicious as i have heard of studios asking for money upfront etc etc, but he didnt ask for a penny, just confirmed my address and said details would be sent to me?

is this a win or something thats gonna cost me a fortune??

    jesus, i have just had a look on scam.com, and my eyes are popping out of my head!! not at the complaints about studio 64 but at the rudeness of some of the posters. he is calling people all sorts.

    as for the 'win', think i will wait till i get the tickets in the post- seeing is believing after all

    Studio 64 sounds so familiar to me. Hope it's a genuine win!

    Studio 64 picks up on the idea that people remember 'Studio 54'- the world famous disco in the 70's and early 80's (I was born in 85 and that is where the name for Studio 64 stuck in my head from).

    It is a geniune makeover/ photography studio but after giving you your 'free' day of make-up, hair styling and photo taking, that you have paid for your travel and lunch in, they will then start the hard hitting 'sales pitch'. It's intended to make you buckle, to spend a fortune and to end up leaving crying. Just don't fall for it. Leave happy, having had a nice day, and leave with no photos. They cost a fortune. There are lots of messages on here about Studio 64, Studio London and other companies similar to these.
