Years ago I paid the premium subscription for Voice123.com, only to find that every single person on planet earth could audition for anything. If you were trying to get a little extra work on Voice123.com, it was sometimes very hard unless you were the first 10 to 15 auditions. No voice seeker had time to listen to the 300+ that were submitted.

So, I let my subscription expire.

Within the last 2 months, I began to inquire about the site again. I had many bad feedback emails from friends. I decided to chat with Voice123.com support to ask some very pointed questions about the service.

I was assured that the “Smartcast” technology would increase the ability for me to get better exposure on auditions with all of its astounding formulas and calculation. Even on the website, the “Smartcast” information page gives elaborate explanation about its ability to match talent, sift through the voice pool and match the best talent with the seeker.

This I believe is complete nonsense. Save your money. I have chat logs from Voice123.com that basically confirm at the heart of the “Smartcast” technology, exists nothing more than a rotation wheel for talent. If you audition for material, you get kicked to the back of the pile. Now, of course it is not THAT simple, but that is a big part of it.

So, I complained. I got the diplomatic answer. I posted the question to the Voice123.com forum… guess what. I got kicked back to a standard member and my paid membership revoked.

It was like censorship. I inquired, they said I violated the Voice123.com forum policy. I asked where the policy was, I couldn’t find it. Guess what, there wasn’t a posted policy. They couldn’t show me.

Has anyone else had a bad run with Voice123.com – I am just dumbfounded at this unbelievable turn of events.
