Out of curiosity!

I was just wondering which Agency has been the least successful members have sent autograph requests to?  For me, I seem to have very little luck with United Agents Limited and Curtis Brown Group.  I have loads of requests with their celebs but very little seems to come back.  Just interested to know how other members find them.

I would not say any one agency is worse than another. To be fair to them all, I honestly believe they try to pass on mail if possible, and any non replies is probably down to accidents with misdirection/mail or genuine non replies from the celebrity after they have had the mail passed to them.

I just checked my spreadsheet and for the two agencies you mention -

United Artists - 14 successes, 11 non replies

Curtis Brown - 32 successes, 24 non replies

Pretty similar reply rates.

That also includes some recent requests, and some requests where I have tried more than once which backs up the suggestion that it is the celebs more than the agencies that result in non replies.

I would tend to agree with you there Nigel.  I used to have a poor success rate with Independent Talent Group but over the last few months I have had a few successes.
