We were very disappointed with the service. I reserved a balloonist/face painter entertainment for my daughters first birthday. Since day one Lila the person who takes the reservations was very rude over the phone, but since she had the best price in town i figured as long as she is not my entertainer i should be fine. Lila promised me everything would be great and that the entertainers are from the area. I WAS WRONG! the morning of the birthday the entertainer called me saying she was just called by A Plus Entertainment to do our event. She was very stressed, asked for gas money and wanted directions, and wanted me to pick her up at the park where the event was at. Well, to make a long story short...she did her job but was rude to the kids and in the end i was dissappointed. Soon after the birthday i call A-Plus entertainment and before i could even explain why i was dissappointed Lila call me crazy and said to never call her again. This is not the type of service you ever want to deal with and soo unprofesssional. I will be reporting her to the bad business bureau and i hope she goes out of business. Please do not hire this service for your birthdays or any children events!

I booked Aplus for my daughters 16th on 30/12/07. I paid my £50 deposit and apparantly Aplus called to speak with me but i was at work. They sent e-mails, pass words to get on the internet site. However 14 days i paid in full as was requested of me. Then it dawned on me that somethings not write as there were no more e-mails from them, nothing. Afew days later when i was speaking with a friend advising that i'm gonna have to book another disco. Is when she suddenly said that a disco was being investigated by Watchdog. Unbelievable, i felt so stupid. But hey we live and learn, this was a very expensive xmas as i had to fork out for 2 disco's. At least the second booking turned up and i paid him at the end of the disco. I book a lot of things via the internet this has definitely put me off.

I booked a party for my 5 year old after a conversation with Aplus. They had offered me "free" party bags - I had asked some questions regarding how many they would provide and what would be in them, and the person was very vague. I went ahead and booked the party anyway, but this nagged me, so I searched via Google and found this web-site plus the Watchdog reviews. I immediately cancelled the party via an e-mail and asked for my deposit back. Like another reviewer I then had lots of threatening e-mails saying I was "in breach of contract" as I hadn't cancelled correctly and now had to pay the balance or they would take me to court. I did some research and found that Aplus should clearly state their cancellation policy (which they don't), so they are in breach of distance selling regs. I contacted my credit card company and they refunded the deposit back to my card. I also wrote to Aplus and stated they were in breach - I have never heard from them again. We used another entertainer who just wanted paying on the day and he was fab!!

I arranged a DJ for my nephew's 9th b'day party and no one turned up. Deposit not being returned either.

If there was a 'professional' company that did not keep its promise, this is it! Inherently unreliable.

Not all DJ's are like this company appears to be. Aplus has been shunned by the industry. The majority are hard working, honest and reliable. There are a handful, as in most industries, that tarnish the efforts of the others. When making a booking for any kind of entertainment, not just a DJ, always get the name of the entertainer and a contact number before handing over any money!

Go elsewhere!

I booked a magic show and disco for my daughter's Birthday party, they seemed very eager at first the responses were quite sharp in ensuring that the deposit was paid and final payment had to reach them 14 days before the event. Once they had the cash I never heard from them again. I became anxious during the week before the party that I hadn't heard from them so I rang them again and left an e-mail for them to confirm that they were actually going to turn up. Fifteen minutes before the party I knew that nobody would show after all. I was fortunate enough to great friends who stepped in when I needed them the party was still a great success.

I booked and paid Aplus Entertainment for a Magician for my daughters 8th Birthday in February 2007. The day before the party I contacted APlus to confirm details, and I was told the magician/disco would arrive at 1:15.

No one showed on the day, leaving a hall full of disappointed children.
