Review of Breakdown Services

As someone that casts commercial and film projects...

As someone that casts commercial and film projects, I do not like the Breakdown Service. I much prefer LA Casting and other casting sites than this service. They take a very long time to release casting notices, much longer than other casting sites, and they now require that they get credit in the end credits of projects if you use their site whether or not you've cast someone from using their site, no other casting site is asking for this. I'm still waiting for a recent casting notice to get approved by them and it's been almost 24 hours. All other casting sites had my casting notice approved right away. I believe they're doing a disservice to the actors that pay them since the Breakdown Service is pushing those of us that cast to use other sites instead of them. They're only in business IF casting decides to continue to use them; if not then they're out of business and so they really need to rethink how hard they make it for us to get our notices posted and how long it takes.
