I wouldn't like to propose what the issue was, however TOP TALENT have now been banned from this site and Good Riddance.

If Top Talent had to undermine another agency; in this instance it was mainly Daisy & Dukes but also Chillie Kids and Bonnie and Betty. Then I hope that there antics have an affect on there business tiquette for the future.

Evidence would definitely indicate this is NOT a stitch up. Just very, very poor judgement and poor business practice. Well done to d&d for rising above it and being secure enough in yourselves to not stoop to their level.

We;ve had some challenges with TT and also thinking about not renewing - now I have seen what has happened on here I think my mind is pretty much made up now!!!

This is shocking. I have posted elsewhere that I have only ever had good experience with TT and found Warren Bacci to be very pleasant to do business with.

I have no vested interest and neither of my girls are with them, but I have always been happy to recommend them.

I noticed pwilliams strange repetition of questions about TT and wondered why they would ask the same question twice. But I've seen odder behaviour on here so didn't try to put 2 and 2 together.

The companycheck info refers to a MacWilliams, not a Willams - is that evidence or is there more?

If the tactic of commenting on D&D was intended to put D&D down it was pretty pointless since many NAPMs think highly of D&D so would always counter with a different point of view anyway....puzzling...

There is more evidence that links the two but it's not my place to say anymore but I assure you it certainly seems more than coincidence and yes totally baffling as to what was hoped to be gained.

All I want to say is - and we are not with Daisy and Dukes - however, as worked on Call the Midwife for a few episodes, and met a lot of their clients, both adults and children, I only ever heard wonderful comments about Michelle and the team at D&D (who I have never met and only know of through their comments). Their consensus of opinion was that D & D is great!
