We can't comment directly on The European Advisory Service.  However we would advise you do follow the points below:

There are many organisations ( advice) that offer free advice such as ourselves, The European Consumer Centre for Services and ECC-Net.  

If you are going to be charged for advice then that may ring aleam bells and if nothing else why pay when you can get it free.

We would suggest that you always seek advice from an official advisory body that offers free advice and is not affiliated to any company etc beofre you agree to paying any money
