I was contacted by Fast Break Music when they were known as songplacements.com in April. First I was contacted on Myspace by a person known as "rene willingham" and then i was contacted by Hilarie Naymick who stated she was an A&R representative for the company.
Hilarie Naymick stated she would submit my songs to tv and movie listings the company had with the goal of having a song placed in a movie or tv show. Hilarie Naymick of songplacements.com explained that the company charges a $399.99 fee for it's services.
After charging my credit card, customer service was nonexsistant. Emails were not returnedand song submissions were not verified as having been recieved by the company. Phone calls to Hilarie Naymick were unreturned.
I found the company moved it's office to a new location of the same building at 7039 sunset blvd, and when I found the office an unidentified employee denied the company was songplacements.com. The company was now known as Fast Break Music. David Hitt a company employee then escorted me out of the building with a guard dog. I was approached by employee Ben Stidham who led me back up to the office where it was confirmed the songplacements.com is now Fast Break Music. Ben Stidham stated I would get a refund from Hilarie Naymick's account, however, he was not able to and would not give me a reason why over the phone. Ben Stidham also recently stated he no longer works at Fast Break Music.
Phone calls and emails were unreturned from the company president/founder Inga Gasparyan and accounts manager Sherry Nazerpour. Despite former company employee Ben Stidham's verbal agreement a refund would be given for poor customer service, no refund given. Fast Break Music is formerly known also as Hitt Music Group. California Attorney General's Office has been notified. As of this writing, I am still a member of songplacements.com. No refund.
