Verified ReviewerProfiteering from COVID19
****** Update 16 April 2020 *******One of my bandmates called Gigmasters (they won't let me call because I'm too pissed). Gigmasters said "next year, we will talk about offering you a reduced annual fee" but they refused to give a dollar amount, so I assume its one of...
****** response to GIGMaster's March 20th reply below*****We Vendors are in this crisis for MONTHS, and you offer TWO WEEKS? Despite your elegant words, your actions prove that YOU ARE PROFITEERING ON THE COVID19 virus, making Vendors suffer the entire loss. And, the...
We asked TheBash-Gigmasters to "share the burden" and suspend our account for a couple of months, and let us reinstate with the same account credit later. They refused, saying "you can suspend your account, but will continue to debit your annual membership". In other words, THEY CONTINUE TO MAKE PROFIT FROM VENDORS DURING THE COVID19 crisis. (By the way, their competitor GigSalad offers this "suspension" feature with no hassle to the vendor.)
Avoid TheBash-Gigmasters .
Vendors are at the bottom of their food-chain.. They even sent all Vendors a notice, "encouraging" us to refund non-refundable deposits for the cancelled events (which we had already done), "so customers can use it for a future booking".
TheBash would have Vendors pay ALL the burden for the COVID19 crisis, not customers, and certainly not The Bash. Their greedy Profiteering shines through!

Auto Renew Scam
I have been with Gigmasters for 5+ years. I decided today that I just didn't think it was worth the money anymore.
I sent a request to customer service to cancel my auto renew, as I feel the site is overcrowded with vendors and is not worth the membership costs. I was told that I had to contact them via phone to stop auto renew. What web based company has no way for a member to cancel via the web. This is a scam to try and get you to stay a member.
No thanks and never again. I believe my credit card company would have something to say about you charging my card after I notified you to cease.
- Ranking system for vendors
- Scams to get you to stay

Thanks for this detailed review. We got the same "shaft" from GigMasters, but after a few tries, just gave up fighting it, and will never go back to Gigmasters. They are crooks.
We agree!! Gigmasters (The Bash) are simply a bunch of crooks!
Ten times worse than the COVID PLAGUE! You will never see a return on your membership.
Just brutal, GigMasters.... come on.
We would like to apologize for the inconvenience caused by this current situation and understand your concern. We know that it's a difficult time, especially for those in the event industry and also for those who have had to cancel important events, big and small.
Our team is here providing as much support and assistance as they can to our members and clients every day. In the case of a last minute event cancellation due to COVID-19, we will not be penalizing members - we will be refunding the booking fee to members and clients will not be able to leave a review. Our goal is to handle any COVID-19 related event cancellations as delicately as possible. As far as memberships go, we will continue to monitor the situation and will provide more information if anything changes as our team works through the best solution for all parties.
At this time, we can extend your membership by 2 weeks if you decide to temporarily deactivate it. Our Account Services Team is on hand to provide support for current cancellations taking place.
Although we are encouraging our members to consider issuing a refund or apply payments towards a future date, we know it is at their discretion as we realize this pandemic has heavily impacted their business. We'd also like to assure you that we're not looking to turn a profit as we're here to help both our members and our clients during this trying time as we're all in this together.
Yes, they rufused to suspend our account also. They are either greedy, or incompetent, or just care about performers and vendors.
In our last call with The Bash, aka.GREED-masters" their agent admitted that their Management had made the conscious decision NOT to suspend nor refund any Vendor memberships. And there you have it...
Everything we said negative about them is confirmed.
If you are a vendor, AVOID Gigmasters (The Bash). It may seem attractive at first, but YOU WILL GET SCREWED.
