Yes,

High-School StudentThey are "ok" for non-English students. I am very explicit with what I need. I mean REALLY explicit. After using other sites I sort of have to tell new sites when I try them out on what need exactly. Now with that being written, it is VERY obvious that these writers (at least the majority) do not have English speaking backgrounds. Which for me was ok, because I ALWAYS go through the paper with a fine tooth comb and make adjustments that better suit my topic. The problem with this company is that most of the time the references and sometimes the paper are NOT In APA style (even when selected APA), lack a doi or a direct article link, have spacing & font issues, the title of the article is all in title case instead of only the proper nouns, the content of the paper has a lot of filler that has nothing to do with the actual topic (probably to meet page length and to avoid plagiarism), and they mis-cite authors (soft plagiarism). Also, they are often late, like other sites. They send you a nice email asking for more time. If you agree you get the problems I mentioned above. If you disagree they stop right where they are at and give you a paper with no organization, messy.

Another thing is that this site has gotten very expensive. They went from $22/page for Master's level 24 HR turnaround to their current price ($38??). Something to consider after reading this post.

Now, a lot of these I can easily spot, but I know that like other people we just don't have time to do things on our own for whatever reason so we reach out to these sites. VERY recently I used this company and the quality of the order I got was terrible. What is funny is that I didn't order a paper either! I ordered something simple like Ann Bibs. Again, I was very explicit on what I want exactly done. The above mistakes were found (big shocker... LOL), but this time I asked for a revision. The first 2 revisions, NOTHING had changed they just waited the time out and resent it back to me. I asked for a new writer and it went n deaf ears. Basically it went back and forth for 17 revisions with me telling them what needs to be corrected. At the 17th revision I gave up and asked for a refund because it was obvious that despite me attempts to assist them in correcting the order, no one was listening on the other end. I found out that they can ONLY give me a 40% refund, even though they were LATE in delivering my order, not to mention it had all the errors. So, I naturally argue this point, but It is me against a foreign site, like me against a pirating company.

Bottom line is, unless you are in High school grade 9-10 DO NOT USE THEM. The quality of their Master level papers are similar to things I wrote in High School

Why don't you look for an independent native speaker, or a company that employees native speakers? There are at least three or four such companies.

That isn't expensive at all. It's actually really cheap, which ought to be a warning sign. At most, you can expect that the writer will be getting about 50% of what you paid, meaning a maximum of $19/pg. I don't know any qualified native writers that would accept this, especially not for a 24-hour deadline on a typical graduate level paper. You should expect to be paying at least $50/pg. for such services at companies, and $35-$40 if working directly with a writer.

If they are charging the customers $22 per page, they are probably paying the writers $8-9 per page, which is a real rip off.

And even if they are charging the customers more, I doubt that the writers will be getting a raise.

And no one would want to do 17 revisions for such lousy pay in any case. Nobody makes anything from revisions so they would probably prefer to just dump it.

Kulita sounds more like a paid poster at this forum. You know the kind. The ones that pose as a student and bad mouth a company just to help the other company try to steal clients or intercept order inquiries. The post was too long, too detailed, and too informative of the negative aspects of the writing company in question. It just feels too staged in writing as far as I am concerned. I cannot shake the feeling that the admin allowed a shill post to remain as they were unable to identify it as such when it was first posted to this thread.

@a1writer this post appears to need your insight. This is the company you were previously attached to right? So you should be able to better respond to the accusations hurled at the company by the people in the thread. I do not know enough about the company to make an accurate comment about it so I would like to leave that up to you. I believe that you are the person in the best position to provide information about the company. The contents of this thread are so negative that it could prevent students from considering the services of the company. Care you share your two cents worth?

@noted
No, this is not the company I used to write for so can't really comment on the accusations. However when I type their name in my browser it takes me to https://royalessays.co.uk/ so they have changed their name.
