Is this writing site scam mhrwriter.co.uk ?

Does anyone knows about this site mhrwriter.co.uk ?
I heard it's operating from Karachi, Pakistan.
Is it true ?

You may be right about the location; a number of Pakistan-based services use .co.uk domains (instead of .pk domains) to give an illusion of legitimacy. Other than that, claims like '100% satisfaction guaranteed' or 'rated 4.88 out of 5' are bogus and may want to question the other claims or promises posted on the site.

I've unfortunately used mhrwriter.co.uk.DND. They take students for a rough ride through their other site too: essaysnassignments.com.

Utter scam, terrible spun content provided, despite half a dozen revisions which saw no improvement. The content was largely unreadable. For example, some of the Spun content changed company names like "House of Fraser" into "Place of Fraser", I found some of the original articles that had copied and spun, which I confronted them about, they still claimed it was acceptable content.

Total shambles.

UPDATE: TBH, I was being unfair, as I haven't actually used these writers. For all I know they are decent enough. All the issues have been rectified, they were actually quite open and honest and where quick to respond to a complaint, so I'm more than happy with the service.

The url doesn't sound reliable in the first place. If you can't make sense of the web address, I do not think any student should risk hiring the service. I mean, with such a generic reference, the site could disappear overnight along with your cash and the writers. You end up without cash and without a paper. The company gets your cash and never have to deal with you again. If you must hire a writing company, at least make it one with a URL that sounds like it will be hanging around for some time, at least.

The website creation and content writing was outsourced. The owners hired writers who know how to use SEO successfully to help their website gain visitors. The problem is that the page is too text heavy and is very boring because of the lack of pizzaz in the overall presentation. It is not successful in promoting itself because the text is too long. Instead of showing the student what sets them apart from other services, they have to read it instead. Students who are looking for academic writing companies prefer to have an interactive page to visit, this company does not provide that.

In principle, I don't have any problem with their hiring SEO specialists, if that's the case, because they're not selling SEO services or representing themselves as SEO experts. My problem is that there's 0.0 chance that their website text was written by a native English speaker, which, of course, means that their writers aren't NES, because it's always the best writers at essay companies who are asked to write their website text. As usual, the text is full of extremely awkward vocabulary choices that would never be made by any professional NES writer; but one doesn't even need to consider more than the atrocious grammar and punctuation mistakes throughout. Here are just a few quick examples, all from a single paragraph -- the second paragraph of the first page -- of mistakes that most NES students would know not to make by the Sixth Grade:

"Educational services help pupil ... to progress the student's scholastically." [Helps, not "help," Pupils, not "pupil" and students, not "student's."]

"UK scholar often finds their assignments" [Scholars, not "scholar" and find, not "finds."]

"This idea brings peace to graduates mind" ["Graduates" obviously requires an apostrophe, and it's minds, not "mind."]

"Also, it saves a lot of time, and money since" [There should be no comma after the word time, and a comma is absolutely required before the word since.]

That's 9 elementary mistakes in 6 sentences, without even getting into the horrible sentence structure and word choices. If an essay company can't even compose a short paragraph on its own home page without more elementary grammar and punctuation mistakes than the number of sentences in the paragraph, what do you suppose are the chances that you'll receive a well-written academic essay without similar mistakes throughout the essay?


Respectfully, this is exactly how students get scammed: they choose companies on the basis of the bells and whistles on websites, which almost all scam essay companies deliberately build into their websites to create a "professional" impression and, often, to distract from the fact that they can't write in error-free English. They're hoping that prospective customers will focus on all of those bells and whistles instead of on their horrible written English.


Respectfully, I believe it's precisely the quality of the writing on an essay company's website that provides one of the most reliable indications that it can probably be trusted to provide good writing. Conversely, paying a web developer to include all sorts of functions doesn't necessarily correspond at all to the quality of its written product. Certainly, it's possible that the good writing on a website is much better than the writing in its product, especially if it employs dozens or hundreds of writers; but if an essay company can't even compose elementary-error-free text on its own website, their projects obviously aren't going to be better than their website.

Agreed. The students these days live in an interactive world of social media so we can clearly see where the problem lies. They tend to trust what they can digitally interact with rather than what they can interact with in person. They do not realize till it is too late that the digital world of academic writing poses a lot of danger to them.

A decade ago, people here were suggesting that I needed to establish a presence on social media to remain competitive. That turned out not to be true, and, if anything, students eventually learned that they had to be much more wary of essay companies and writers who did use social media extensively than of those of us who'd simply earned a reputation of competence and honesty on online forums such as this one, over many years.
