Superb Functions dont pay

Fiona Katie played for this agency in August 2009 and we still have not been paid , It has come to light today that they continue to book artistes and do not pay or pass any money on. I received this information from another Manager.

I would urge anyone who is owed monies from this agency to contact all the clients they did the work for direct and to inform them what they are doing.

You have no chance of getting any money from them and despite contacting the Musicians union we never got any money event the threat of court action did not change this.
They set up a sister company by the looks of things and then claim that the company which owes money has none despite this they are now in plush offices so I am told.

Anyone who is interested in setting up a joint action against this company should contact me .
our email address is David @tripleharps.com

In my opinion what this agency has done and continues to do is theft.

in our case we travelled to manchester whilst I was having treatment for a tumour , had petrol expenses, parking expenses plus my wife Fiona Katie worked for three and a half hours for them .

They did not pay and when we contacted the number for accounts a recorded message refused to let us leave a message . I wrote to them and they did eventually respond claiming they had severe financial difficulties then said if we were to take them to court we would get no money.
they repeated this several times in the letter stating they had no cash

The Musicians union has a handbook which contains a list of companies which they consider risky Superb functions.com, Superbfunctions, Superb Functions limited are all the same company

I can not stress strongly enough that the best thing to do is not to listen to them not to do any work for them and also to ask to be removed from their advertising literature on the internet as even after they did not pay they carried on advertising my wife until I insisted they remove her details.

The people who ring you to book you and beg and plead with you to do gigs are in on this , Steve Kynaston knew what was going on and promised me many times the moies owed but did not pay
