No legitimate writing services or writers?

After viewing several discussions from this website, I now believe that there are no legitimate essay writing services. I recently purchased an essay for the sake of curiosity and slight desperation. I will never do that again! I am a single parent of 3 and I work two jobs. I fell a little behind in my work. I don't think this site is very helpful to newcomers because there is no listing of good and bad sites or writers.

I could use some advise.

Yes you are right git345 in some points. There are many people here who just accuse site of being scamm site - and anyone can say anything here. There is no evidence. Just B*******.

No Writer FoundMany poster here are from website - like one from OxbridgeReseachers or one from ********* - and they try and make their competitor seem bad (they desperate people!)

But for to try essay write site - make sure site are in UK or perhaps in US (but most scammer is American or Pakistan or China people). Make sure site is Limikted Company and show company number too. And make sure you pay a good high price for essay because all low charge price site are scam or use bad writer. You must pay about £200 for 2000 word 2.1 essay. Less is use unqualified student writer - probly in Asia. Cheap price = cheap quality, like from Oxbridgewriters etc etc etc. So many cheap site ! AVOID.

I am write business and math and IT for UK Limited company site and all these are OK and you can trust. If company is not Limited company with company number then DO NOT TRUST. Ignore all lie from usual suspect here - they are full of ****. This site is NOT an independent advice site - and who own this site? *********?

Good luck - but try write essay yourself before trying essay site. Then get essay site to edit and improve it maybe - but NEVER use cheap site. These are all scam like Oxbridgewriter who is own by woman who was sack by essay site so she start her own!

I agree, a legitimate company should always post their business address on their site.

I agree too. In fact, I think it's the law, at least in England (where I am). If there's no address and they're a registered company (or are claiming to be), you can cause them no end of trouble by reporting them for not having their address prominently displayed.

If they're not a registered company and aren't claiming to be, there's no requirement to have the address on the site, although I certainly would be wary about any site that wasn't forward with that kind of info.

I can't be bothered to go and look, but I'd bet a lot of essay writing sites are flouting the law in this area...

EFL writers can be good - especially with business/IT/healthcare.

I am Indian man - but I write top quality math and IT and financial business essay - and typical score is 68-72% according to UKessays.

They all good - despite of people what say lies here. They all pay good - but some have fine system, and this is not good.

But al site of quality is expensive. Of coarse. Sh site like Oxbridgewriter and ********* is cheap foreign CRAPPPPPPPP!

The good company do proofread and are top quality UK Ltd and do not make writer pay fine. No problem. Good company.

What country you from rustyironchains? Scamland? Scamlamabad?

asif,

I respect your right to your own opinion, but I disagree that America (where I'm from), Pakistan, and China somehow have the lock on scams.

a lot of the scam sites don't really seem to have a home country, because they are scams. they have to move around a lot, incorporating, dissolving, and re-incorporating, often in totally different countries, and not as a reflection on nationality in any of them.

in other words, there are scammers in every nation. this includes India, especially with the recent nature of the post1991 capitalist explosion there, and the relatively short time of deregulation, or quasi-deregulation.

to me, the very fact that you are on the site actively sort of precludes any kind of proactivity about its being useless, but I understand your frustration with personal agendas, etc. however, I think you are blaming Pakistan for its history with India, America because it's popular to blame America, and China... maybe because China is growing faster than India, and has a better educational system.

that said, again, I do agree with you about the utter disregard some essay mills have, regardless of nationality, of their writers, by daring to fine them, after already reaping over 50% profit from their labor.

the spell of crazy nationalism is so strong. let's hear from WB on this subject-- where have they been, recently?

United States College Paper Writing Companies?



Are there any legitimate (i realize this term is relative) essay companies in the United States? it seems like they are all located in the U.K., or the secretly in the Ukraine. Why is this? i was just wondering about the types of regulations that might differ between countries. is there something about laws in the United States that discourages these businesses?

ugh

there are "legit," which is becoming a horrible and over-used term, companies everywhere.
in some "shady" companies, there are "legit" writers or "legit" administrators.
many web vendors have writers from the US, UK, Australia, etc... all working as independent contractors.
if you are looking for a national brick and mortar essay vendor, I would be more specific than "US."

No, not at all. In both the US and the UK, though, papers can't be knowingly sold for submission purposes. We provide model academic papers and students should use them as research aids. Giving them in as their own is not just a violation of academic integrity policies but, in some jurisdictions, of the law. As long as we operate within those parameters, do not engage in false advertising and pay our taxes, etc ... we are ok.

Many companies incorporate in the UK and US so they may advertise themselves as British/American. However, they do not operate there and none of the partners/company owners are residents/citizens. Customers do not enjoy the same rights which they do were they to deal with companies which were actually (and easily) accountable under UK and US law.

there are "legit," which is becoming a horrible and over-used term, companies everywhere.

True ... a few of the particularly rotten ones have some excellent writers on their books and a handful of good administrators. But the chances of customers coming across a really bad writer are much higher than their being assigned one of the few good ones. Same with writers - for every good administrator they come across, they run into countless intolerable ones :)

That being said ... there are a few foreign-owned sites out there which are very good. Similarly, there are some horrid British and American ones (not just incorporated in these countries but owned by nationals). So, it is not a question of nationality but of honesty and quality.

no one was able to answer this question?

what are the names of legitimately u.s.-based essay writing companies? besides custompapers.com which has worked on a few projects already and I don't want the same writers for this course.

not looking for the recommendation of quality of work...just look for the names of companies that are legitimately based in the u.s. and are not operating from elsewhere.

This question isnt against the essayscam policy is it?

You are technically correct. There are no legitimate writing services because the academic writing business exists in a gray area. An underground economy that is not acknowledged by educational authorities and disavowed by students when asked pointedly by educators. However, that is not to say that you cannot deal with academic writers on a professional level.

There are US and UK based academic outsourcing companies, that, although not totally legal in the business sense, deals with their clients on a professional basis. You must have ended up dealing with one of those Ukrainian or Asian services that portray themselves as professional but are nowhere near being an amateur company with even partially competent writers.

I really find it offensive that you have grouped all "legitimate" writing services with the bad apples in the basket. There are actually a number of red flags that possibly got past you in your rush to hire a writing service. The red flags are usually staring you in the face as you read the blurbs on these websites and also, when dealing with the client services of the company. The first clue, is the horrible English used to create the advertising on the website. The next one, is the fact that you won't be able to talk to these client representatives anywhere other than a chatroom. The list goes on and on.

I am sad that you had this bad experience but you have to understand that not everyone in the business is a "scam" and not all the companies are "illegitimate".

Actually, it is possible to register a writing business and get a business permit, provided academic writing is not your only form of business and you are not mentioning that directly in your application forms for the permits. Registered academic teaching centers such as tutorial places could offer indirect writing services. These are considered legitimate companies that hire legitimate writers, who are normally stateside or UK based, to accomplish these "special services". The misconception about legitimate writing services and writers stem from the proliferation of 3rd world writing companies and European based questionable academic outsourcing entities. It is not proper to refer to all writing services as illegitimate.

There are more legitimate writing services out there than one would be inclined to believe. It all depends upon how the business is structured and the actual services (without special order services offered such as academic writing) offered by the company. These are legally registered business entities who take pride in the work that their company does.

What you need to understand is that this is a totally unregulated industry without any oversight or performance or quality standards of any kind. That means the only real value of business permits is that they make it a bit harder to dissolve and create scam businesses one after the other.

But it doesn't really make it prohibitively difficult, as it's done quite routinely by shady landscapers, home-improvement contractors, and other types of businesses where scammers and outright criminal enterprises have proliferated. In this business, even when our permits or business licenses have a long history, that's got absolutely nothing to do with the quality of the work provided. There are licensed and registered essay services that have (apparently) been quite profitable in this industry despite disappointing many (or even most) of their clients for years. Their business model is the complete opposite of independent writers like me, because most of their income is from a steady supply of disappointed first-time/last-time clients. Legit freelance writers hope that every new client will become a regular client and, in the best scenarios, will end up using us exclusively for years, all based on being thrilled with the first piece of our work. The problem is that if someone just provides you with a poor essay on the right topic and of the right length, and referenced in the right style, there's no such thing as any kind of "license or registration" that's going to help you recover payment or compel an unpaid revision. In fact, you're much better off being scammed outright and not receiving any essay, because that gives you some potential avenues of recovery. Finally, before you rely on the BBB rating in that regard, that's no guarantee either, simply because they're not what you think they might be: they just sell award accreditation and high ratings to businesses that want to pay them for it and they withhold them for long-established non-paying totally legit businesses. The actual reports on the BBB sites aren't nearly as helpful as Yelp reviews because no BBB complaints are ever posted unless and until they've been formally adjudicated in court or by an applicable agency and produce a negative outcome such as a fine or a court order. So, the BBB will not give you any hint of how many people have actually complained about a BBB business and it can still keep its AAA rating despite numerus (or even perpetual) complaints.

It's all explained and fully referenced right in this recent thread: https://essayscam.org/forum/gt/safeguard-deceptive-writing-services-common-6339/

The academic writing field is the wild west of the business. That means, there is no such thing as legitimate or illegitimate. The business and its practices merely exist to fulfill the financial needs of the writer, the writing company, and the grade requirements of the students. The legitimacy of the business comes from the way the writer deals with the client. A single proprietorship writing business is considered freelance and self-employed. It is a side hustle for all intents and purposes. As such, no business registration is required. The writer may or may not be on the level. The legitimacy of his business will depend upon whether he deals fairly with his clients or not. Those who treat their clients with respect and dignity are those who can be considered a legitimate business and trustworthy writer. A writer who performs otherwise, is definitely illegitimate and a scam. It is important that students understand the obvious difference between the two types of writers, based solely on how they treat their clients.
