This company is not worth writing for because there is no certainty of income. For every job listed, there will be 20 writers submitting an article for consideration. From there, the client will choose and pay only for the version Is that he believes he can use. The other articles are dead. Better luck next time. You would be better off bidding on academic essay orders. At least there is certainty of income there when you are awarded a job order. Do not look for easy money. Look for a regular source of income instead.

Which company can you trust? The one that you personally look into, investigate, and gain confidence in as you get to know the company. Don't trust any ' recommendations but consider valid opinions instead, Only you know what company and writer will suit your needs. All hires come with a risk. Even the recommended ones. Use your own judgement and blame no one if the deal goes south.

I could name countless other examples of my contributions to this forum.

countless contributions indeed. But, Were they truly useful to the students ? Receiving thanks from them means they got the information and considered it. We only assume they didn't eventually use the service. There is no proof these contributions had a useful purpose. The companies just filed *DND requests to protect themselves from unverified accusations. One may think highly of him/herself but please, don't toot your own horn. Let others do that for you when and if there is reason to do so.

A boycott will only work when people or unions band together to make it work. The companies mentioned are too powerful in the 3rd world for their ESt writers to go on strike. These writers survive on a paycheck to paycheck basis. They need the work more than they need to go on strike. These low wage writers always get paid because they work without complaints. Proving their loyalty to the company as opposed to unionists like these who don't care about the pocketbook and liver of others. Boycotts never work in this industry because of it's setup. Don't hold your breath for a successful boycott.

Yulia, RESIGN.

Why would a part owner in a company resign? She might sell her stake in it, but never resign. The money is too good to pass up. Specially you can pay your writers the price of a soda can, or less, per page and still have them treat you like a god.

Most companies believe that writers can learn on the job and familiarize themselves where a related background, in law, for example ' rists. That is how most of their writers get their off. I am not promoting that as a good thing. Merely saying that not all writers would be honest enough to admit differences when it matters. I admire you for your honesty. I hope your paper turned out well.

This site is about stopping verifiable fraud

WB always forgot to mention how we want to stop verifiable fraud, but also teach students how to spot or find reliable websites. We are not mean people. We help where we can and where we can. We leave the choice to the student after offering useful insights beyond ssimply calling a company a scam.

If one's level of integrity allows one to earn chicken feed from a company

Let's not demean a person because he is thankful to be earning a living. He appreciates what he can of his employer. Meaning he is a simple man who is satisfied with his life. He should be commended for finding satisfaction where others refuse to.

I was just wondering which essay companies people though were good to work for.

This is an unfair question to ask. Each person has a different idea of what qualifies a company as good to work for. What you believe to be unfair could be fair to others. specially if that person is an ESL writer from a 3rd world country. Manna from heaven for him could be slave labor income for you. The only reason you would be asking this is because . you are not satisfied with your company. Don't compare apples and oranges. Use your own investigative judgement.

I am being generous accepting a 40% refund

Why are you letting these people off so easy? Since the paper submitted was unusable, only a 100% refund will suffice. Accepting a 40% refund would be rewarding them for bad behaviour. You need to help teach them a lesson by demanding your proper due. The full refund. They did nothing to make a 4010 refund acceptable. They will laugh behind your back if you accept that deal.

This site is designed for customers who have had a bad experience as well as writers who have been used and abused

That is a one sided way of looking at things. I've been in personal discussion with the owners of this forum socially several times and they've always told me the same thing:

We meant the forum to represent both the good and bad experiences of both sides. We regret that it became one sided due to a misinterpretation of the forum objectives by a small, but loud group of users. Users who have misled students and writers alike about what the forum stands for and what the discussions should be about.

More importantly, the owners acknowledge everyone's right to free speech and will not stifle it just to please a small, negligible, self-important section of forum users.

It is my understanding of the word 'advertising' that this is some communication persuading customers to make a purchase.

Your personal understanding is acceptable. Personally, I saw your post more as a recommendation along the lives needed by the student. Was it advertising ? I don't believe so. I would describe it more as a site promotion instead. The company and sewice falls under a gray area because it in not a paid service.

I agree with WB this time. The unidentified @Samantha65 protested too much. It appeared she took the comments posted as a personal affront. Telltale signs of the company owner posting rather than having the still do the job. Notice that when it started to get not in this thread, the person slithered into the night.

Just cancel the order and put a stop payment on your card by calling the card company and asking them to do so. You do not need to cancel your credit card. Nobody instructed you to do that. Whatever gave you that idea? You were told to cancel your order, not your card. That would really would've been bad judgement on your part. Here's hoping you didn't do it.

DO NOT USE THEM THEY ARE A FRAUD.

Remember, accusations need to be backed up by evidence. Otherwise this claim is coming from a competitor site whose salesperson forgot to recommend his company. Now that, is definitely not allowed.

DO YOU KNOW A WEBSITE THAT CAN BE TRUST?

Reframe the question to get around the recommendation, rule. Asking for an opinion is allowed, but not asking for a recommendation. Remember that and all will be well in this forum.

@WritersBeware
Why did WB always confuse students who are asking for opinions with those asking for recommendations? Couldn't WB tell the difference ? O1, was there a vested interest in the intentional misleading responses? An opinion can help a student come to his own decision regarding the service. We shouldn't be making that decision for them. Neither should writers bully them into not asking questions about a service just because ofa rule misinterpretation.

It could have been an informal existence but yes, meets the requirements as per the start of the business. They do not need to explain too much in their about page.

Writing Careers / Researcheden.com site is suspended [19]

Researcheden kept going offline in the past ffor a reason. Rather than investing the client payments to create income for company maintenance, the owner went and treated the cash like his personal trust fund. He ran out of cash to pay for company bills and writers fees because he dipped into what was supposed to be the revolving capital. He had to take loans to cover for his stupidity. Luckily, he scrounged up enough to cover bills and stay somewhat afloat.

How can you be sure you are not being charged for the complete paper number just the same? I've never heard ofa company or writer willing to work on a paper at only 50% rate. That type of charging doesn't make good business sense. Unless, the paper is being produced as a scam. Meaning you will only recieve halff a useless paper. The content will either be filled with rubbish or just cut and paste information based on somewhat useful material.

She quality department is composed of a lead writer and a team / downline of writers. The head writer acts as QAD, penalizing his writers depending upon how much money he needs to make. It is no longer just the company owners abusing the writers. senior writers now also have a finger in the pie. So we can't just blame the company owners for writer abuse anymore.

This is true. Essay Scam is not an academic writing company, which is what that phrase seems to imply. Members of this forum do not have the authority to misrepresent their participation at this forum as a badge of approval. The owners of this forum never intended for such a thing to happen.

Paypal does cover virtual goods and services now. Which is why writing companies can use the services again. There is a catch for the writer or company though. For new accounts, the writer or company will need to complete 5 trouble free transactions. for each transaction, the money will be on hold for one month in case of chargebacks. For regular users, the hold time for chargeback (automatic ) is 2 weeks.

All this investigating and not once did WB ever formally file a case against these company owners. Investing all ofthis time, money, and effort should have been for something right? However, the lack of formal action indicates nothing of the sort. so all of these reports are just a cry for sensationalist attention. something WB often succeeded in achieving. But, did WB really leave a positive legacy in the industry? Personally, I don't believe so. This was a crusade without action and therefore, without a purpose. Did all of these amount to anything? No. The problems still exist and WB left the community defeated. These people are still active, and will remain active in the industry for years to come. That, in the actual sad part of this saga.

Is it worth trying for a refund ect?

No. Not unless you are willing to accept whatever amount they will offer to refund you. They will argue that the grade specified it an estimate, not a confirmed grade. othe next defense is that the paper was completed properly and as promised. so you can't get the full amount back. You will spend more time arguing with them with no solution in sight. You mayas well try to crack your skull on a brick wall. If I were you, I would leave will enough alone. That would be best for all concerned.

Banks normally do not involve themselves in payment disputes since they are not responsible as a payment conduit in the same manner as a credit card. A bank pays out immediately. A credit card takes 30 days for payment. Which is why you can cancel cand transactions while banks cannot doit. When the money is out, it's out. Avoid paying by bank transfer whenever you can. It isn't safe for you. Honestly, when you deal with a legitimate company, their SSL will keep your data secure, even from the academic writing company. Just make sure to pay via your card channel and not a link sent by the company.

i notice that you never make comments such as essaybay is a scam site from the UK or ****** is a scam site from the US.

Come to think of it, you are right. WB never referred to UK and US sites as such. Even though there is a probability that some scam sites also exist in those locations. I wonder why that is ? Perhaps the scams do not exist as companies in those areas but rather, as independent writers? That can't be right. Most of the scams can only exist in the long term as a company or companies.WB did avoid pinpointing any independent writers that are US based as scams as well. Maybe their tight knit group had an agreement about that in place and we weren't privy to it for obvious reasons.

I have started my essay and have a lot of references and just want to get my money back now.

Since the company had an issue with your order, you could have used that as your cancellation reason. Additionally, missing the deadline an their part would have been a second applicable reason. All you had todo was go to the site and look up their cancellation procedure. You could have also e-mailed customer support to start the refund negotiations. I commend the O. P. for wanting to write the paper personally. The student would definitely have learned to write the paper through trial and error. 1 wonder what the student finally ended up doing...

Asking for information should not require the informant to call anybody names. That is just below the belt. There is always a diplomatic way to discuss things. Calling other people, strangers at that, foul names does not make the informant reliable, just mal-educated. This person may have completed a degree but lacked the parental guidance during his/her formative years that would have created a respectful person. Someone who knew to use civilized words to create a healthy discussion as opposed to street style bickering. Hiscussing at scumbag level never creates an informative discussion thread.

It is more difficult to retrieve the money in a debit card situation. Producing the required documentation alone is already a headache. It is not impossible, just contact your bank for the procedure.

They had the logo for a long time, which means they had already been verified a long time ago.

The logo is not set in stone. Just like all verified websites, that logo has an expiration date. The company is then investigated again for fraud and misrepresentation, among other criteria. O complaints means they get to keep the logo as a verified and reliable site. Increased evidence of illegal activities means they lose the approval logo. Making them a questionable site to deal with. If the logo is gone, then they lost it fora reason. However, that doesn't mean they lost it forever. If they fix the causes of the cancellation and they can prove client satisfaction, they can be verified to carry the logo again.

Sometimes a student needs to realize that it is better to cut your losses and make a halfway deal with the company. While not the ideal solution to any scenario, it is usually the most feasible one. The company refuses to take a total loss, which is what they claim even as the writer is fined 100% of the order price + other penalties. The student wants a full refund. Each side will defend and protect his claim until no winner can be declared and only the client loses. If they are willing to return any amount, take it. At least you will have lost only a little rather than the full amount.
