The bidding process for most writing companies have changed since the advent of AI in the academic writing industry.

Priority is given to the writers with a proven track record of writing excellence.

The more senior you are and the better your client ratings, the more likely you are to get assigned a task.

You do not need to use a bot for bidding on work.

That is silly. If you use a bot to bid, then you would probably use a bot to write the paper also.

Just bide your time and keep bidding.

You are bound to get assigned a writing task commensurate to your writer ratings at the company.

What makes you think that an AI wrote the paper for them? Can you provide us with details that will help prove your claim? Perhaps a line from the paper that ran through a plagiarism checker that confirmed your suspicions? This is the first time I have heard of a writing company that used an AI to complete a writing task. As for your money, you are definitely not going to get that back. They probably used a burner phone to communicate with you along with a disposable email address.

You cannot believe that an AI will be able to complete an essay for free, without any plagiarism. The AI is designed to scour the web for relevant information and splice those information together to create a coherent paper. It does not always succeed in writing a coherent paper, but it always succeeds in turning up plagiarized content. Avoid using AI to write your paper. You can only use the products of AI as a basis for an actual, human written essay. You cannot rely on that for plagiarism free work.

Congratulations on not using the work that you were provided with even if you paid for it. Not all students have your kind of realization towards the end of the deal, prior to submitting their paper. You have done well. Now, you just have to be careful that the company does not come back to you with a blackmail story. If they do, you know where to turn to for help. We will help you shut them up.

@xyz_123
That is not a far fetched idea. These company often have plenty of back-up ghost companies to use in the event that they have to shut down one company. I am speaking only of this particular company. I cannot be sure that they did not spin off into a different company that engages in the same business.

The server for this company can no longer be found. That means it only recently went out of business. It is important to note that this is a recent occurrence as they may have left some students holding the bag before they officially went offline. They continued to take orders up to their last day online. Were there any students here affected by their unannounced disconnection? Can you tell us your story?

Both companies are out of business. I am not sure how long they have been offline. What is important is that both companies cannot continue to perpetuate their scams on unsuspecting students anymore. It is important to note that these companies often run themselves out of business. The student reviews have very little to do with their bad business decisions that always lead to the company demise.

We have thankfully been rid of the company. The domain name isnow up for sale. So they finally went out of business. Another pandemic casualty perhaps? It is nice to see that these scam companies manage to erase themselves from existence. They always end up screwing themselves, leaving the students traumatized and fearful of ever hiring a writing service again. This is the best revenge they can have over the company.

I sincerely doubt that company is still in existence today. You can't even get a decent fast food meal for that price anymore. I agree though, it is a laughable and misleading advertising tool. I wonder how many students they managed to con with that sort of misrepresentation in their advertisement? Whatever, students would do well to ignore any company making such a low writing per page offer. That is definitely a company based out of India or somewhere in Asia.

It is more difficult to build a client base these days. Most students seem to think that AI is the answer to all their writing problems, which affected the independent and company connected writers. The jobs are far between these days, forcing the writers to actually pivot to other jobs already. Some are still sticking it out though. They have a client base that somehow still trusts them to do the job. Some, are just winding down their work orders before moving on. It is difficult to maintain the client base, and even more difficult to build a base these days. Unless you have a back up form of employment, you cannot do academic writing full time anymore these days.

Ten years later and the company is still in existence. It has survived a pandemic, the existence of AI and, a weakening academic economy. So they must be doing something right over there. Their work might be on the level after all. After that length of time, it is safe to say that they have repeat clients and that the students trust them to do the work properly. Maybe they were bad at the start, but turned their business ethic and work standards around later on.

When a writing company fails to assign a writer to an order after 24 hours, it is time to consider cancelling your placement. The lack of assignment within 24 hours means the company does not have a qualified writer to handle your paper. They put it into the server for the writers pool consider and bid on, but nobody is bidding on it. Maybe it is because the price per page is too low or, the paper requirements are beyond their abilities. Either way, the order should be cancelled as soon as possible to avoid any scamming on the part of the writing company.

What you received is what is more commonly known as an email spoof. It is a fake. You are talking to the same people from the writing company. They are scamming you. Do not continue communicating with them. Before you know it the "department of education" will be telling you to pay the company to release the clearance certificates. Do not be fooled. This is a con. It is not a real complaint. You are safe from government investigation. The law of the UK regarding academic honesty and writing companies does not function in this manner.

One will have to wonder how the company gets away with using big name corporations as references in their onsite advertising. You would think that the legal team of these cirporations would be on the alert for disreputable companies using their names as references online. I agree that the software does not work. This is also evidence that PlayStore does not have any quality control. They will allow anybody to upload an app to their gallery and they will not check it nor take it down unless the complaints pile up.

Are @Clay and @Hazel one and the same person? It would appear so since their topic, targets, and information shared are the same. It is not even a case of similarity, it is a case of the same data being shared all over the boards. This makes it difficult to assess if the complaints are valid or not. Let the students decide for themselves. Stop getting dual identities. Posting under different personas, but not changing the content means you are just as fake as the company you are complaining about.

@Hazel Please do not spam the boards with the same message over and over again. Telling us once and presenting the evidence once is enough for us to take notice, thank you for your information, and then move on. I understand you were scammed and you are angry. You want to get even, but spamming will not help you stop the company from cheating other students. It will instead, nullify your complaint as coming from a disgruntled client only. Your complaint will lose credibility.

The medical academic writing help websites are the most difficult to trust. It would seem that they are all pursuing money grabs, rather than actually providing a service. It would be better, if you are a medical student, to not hire a writing service because of the complications attached to the writing process. It would be better to do it yourself or, use an AI to provide a writing sample that you can follow. This is one time when writing the paper yourself will pay off for the better.

These blackmailers will use fake stationery to make it appear that they have filed charges against you through proper channels. They will even have an acknowledgement of the complaint to send to you. Ignore it. They are not knowledgeable enough about the way the UK educational system works. They make mistakes in the letterhead, address, department names, among others. Dead giveaways that they are trying to run a scam by you. Just send their mail direct to spam and set the antispam and unknown number caller settings on your phone.

Even if they know where you go to school, you can rest easy knowing that they cannot act on their threat to expose you to your school. That is because the school will not give any weight to the reports of a non-student or faculty member. You have to remember that academic honesty is something valued by the school, but the evidence of violating it must come from within the ranks of the school and not for an anonymous report. There is no way they can harm you. The academic authorities know better.

It is not the job of the academic writing company to keep reminding students about the international academic integrity laws. The schools, colleges, and universities consistently remind the students of these rules when they are asked to write reports, research papers, or take exams. They are openly violating the laws, with the aid of the company, when they hire other people to complete their work. The consequences fall upon the student. Therefore, it is their duty to remain cognizant of these laws and how it would affect them if once they are caught violating the laws.

The AI academic helper market is overcrowded. Most of these are actually just bloated software designed to collect information and data from the user. They are not meant to be actually useful to the student. If you are not using ChatGPT, Google Bard, or Meta AI, you cannot expect to receive quality output from the software. We have to admit it, AI still has a long way to go in terms of being truly useful to students. It lacks the reasoning and logic that the human brain can provide. Which is why the products of AI are currently boring and not really consistent in output.

@Zoha Khan is deceiving the students at this forum. He is not a student but rather, a paid hack who has tried, using several profiles at this forum, to promote various companies. He pushes the highest payers at the students, since he gets a percentage for every successful referral, regardless of whether the student is satisfied with the service or not. He is a freelance promoter who does not care if the companies he advertises fight amongst themselves because of his negative way of promoting each company's services.

did this student ever get the Matlab help he was looking for? It looks like he gave up after his thread was hijacked by other discussion points. Oh well, he tried. If there are any Matlab experts out there, there are often postings here looking for help with that topic.

Please make sure you get in touch with these students. Do a good job and do not scam them.

I do not know anything about Matlab but it looks like a difficult subject to work on. These students need honest help. Be there for them if you can. Do not fool them please.

I cannot believe that essaywriters.net.DND is still active after all this time. They have the worst UI presentation of all the scam company websites. Students are confused by their ordering process, their writer communication program is a joke, I can go on and on about why this company should not be trusted with your paper. the most important reason is this, they are a proven scam company. Their writers come out of Asia rather than India. Both are bad sources for writers anyway. It is best that you stay away from this company as much as you can. They cannot write a paper beyond high school senior level. Do not say I did not warn you.

I cannot believe that this writitn company is still up and running. It is one of those that managed to survive the pandemic by not refunding the money of their clients when classes were suspended and they had to attend school from home, negating the need for academic writer. They are trying to combine sex and intellect in their new image. Get a load of their new front page smart girl. Too bad she is nothing but an AI generated image, or a free stock photo. She is not going to write your paper and, even if she did, I bet she won't be doing a good job at it since their writers lack the proper college education to produce the proper paper for the student client.

Pay after service is an idea that has been constantly floated on this site for some time now. I have yet to hear of a student who used that sort of service, and walked away with a satisfied grin on his face. Regardless of how the writer frames it, the pay after service ploy is something that scammers use because students are always silly enough to fall for it. They think they are getting a bargain in the deal, but since there was never any mention of not paying for the lousy work regardless of whether the student uses the service or not, they most often get blackmailed by these sorts of writers.

While searchdom.com is already a dead site, Essaydom.com.uk and essaydom.com both redirect to the same website. The same UI is being used, so the domain names may be different, but you end up at the same website, with the same lousy pool of workers, regardless of the link you use. It is best to avoid them at this point. There is no sense in using what is obviously a scam website for your writing needs. Do not expect quality work to come from a website that uses the same interface for 2 domain names. It is not worth the trouble.

This is a dead link. The domain name is already available for sale. It appears that the company has long been offline so I do not understand the relevance of continuing to discuss this website at this time. It is more important for students to know that the company has stopped doing business as an academic writing company so anybody who approaches them via email, using this domain name as a reference is more than likely a scammer. Do not do business with them.

It is always difficult for an advanced age student to go back to school. So much has changed and the way things are done seem scary and beyond your regular skills. Do not let it bother you. You will end up learning how to use the available instruments and learn how things are done the modern way. You just have to make sure that you have the patience to learn and that you are willing to spend time learning the new way of doing things. A lot of older adults have done it. I am sure anyone who puts his mind to it can accomplish the same.

There is a reason why flesh and blood academic writers are still the way to go. AI is still too much in its writing infancy to be a truly reliable tool for anybody to use. Human beings on the other hand, have a wealth of experience when it comes to writing academic papers. We started writing for ourselves first, then moved on to writing for other students. So we have the kind of experience that an AI can never have. The human experience factor will always beat an AI every single time. So use a human being for your writing needs instead. Unless, you actually want to write the paper yourself, then you can use an AI to get you started.

AI programs such as ChatGPT was never meant to write the essay for the student. You totally misunderstand the purpose for these AI tools. The idea is to use it to give the student a starting point for developing his own essay or improving upon the AI version for his academic benefit. These AI tools come with a disclaimer that the information provided is not fully accurate and you should still use your own discretion when considering the information provided. Use it at your own risk. There is no fool proof AI, do not be fooled. You still have to do your own writing. The AI is just a guide. A tool used to help you get started with your writing.

Why are students like you using EditPad for their written assignments when ChatGPT and Bard do the written task quite well for you? EditPad was not created with academic help in mind as the other 2 previously mentioned AI were. Use only well known AI for your writing tasks. ChatGPT even comes in mobile form these days. It is also a recommended app for attaching to your MS Word program. Stick with the traditional and reliable methods of AI writing. Do not use something just because it is free or was recommended by a friend. Make sure it has a good reputation attached to it. Make sure that it is trusted by other companies such as Microsoft for writing purposes.

Where a company such as Research My Assignment gets 14 positive review, one should ask if the company showing the reviews are legit. If you got your review for the site or, was referred to the site from SiteJabber, do not believe the reviews. They sell business accounts to these companies. So they are not a legitimate source of feedback as they were before. They finally sold out to the highest bidder and are no longer in the service of the students. Do not hire the company. They cannot be relied upon for anything because they pay for their reviews and advertising.

It is difficult to find honest academic writing sites and writers these days

The UK law that cracks down on academic writing mills has made it even more difficult to source UK based academic writing help. You have to really do background checking, IP address verification, and writer quality inspections before you hire anybody to write for you.

The IP address verification is most important because you should only hire writer's whose IP is truly located in the UK. While it does go against the law, at least you will be hiring someone who is actually fluent in the academic requirements of UK students.

Do not expect them to open themselves to reviews for other websites. Scamfighter is owned by the same company that it advertises services for. It is a self serving review site. They cannot be trusted to give an honest positive review of a competitor. They would be more than open to posting negative reviews though. That would be good for their business, getting rid of the competition somehow. Or, at least trying to.

These review websites cannot be trusted. It is important to understand that these writing companies tend to create their own review websites also, so that they can defend their umbrella companies from truthful negative reviews. This is a recent development in the field since the sites like SiteJabber increased advertising rates on the companies. By advertising at these review companies, negative posts are automatically deleted upon posting. That is why the scam sites decided to set up their own defense sites instead.

Students are prone to being conned by these companies because of the fact that work sites such as LinkedIn does not do anything about these scams. Since LinkedIn is a business first and foremost, and these writing companies often pay for the premium services of the company, LinkedIn tends to overlook the red flags about them. If a student comes across such a scam, they should report the company to LinkedIn and insist they take action against the company. That way LinkedIn will be forced to cut their relationships with these bad actor academic writing services. Remember, due diligence is key when it comes to avoiding scams. Just because the company is on LinkedIn does not mean it is automatically legitimate.

The problem is that there are still students who see these writing services as the only solution to their writing problems. That is no longer the case. These days, it is more appropriate to use the 3 fold paper development method. That is, the student should first use an AI to churn out a generic paper on his given topic. Then, he should take pains to do his own improvements to the paper in terms of content and sources so that he can assess if he will be satisfied enough to submit the paper to his professor. If he is not confident, then he takes a 3rd step, hire a human writing assistant to help him further develop and finalize his paper.

Ai is never recommended as a fool proof writing tool. Regardless of what information we provide to the AI, it will still return garbage because it is incapable of information analysis in terms of relevance and applicability to the discussion. It may be used as a starting point for discussion writing in the same way that Wikipedia can be used as an introduction to a topic you need to write about. In this case, it is important that the student understand that AI should not be trusted a hundred percent. The best he can do is take what the AI developed, then edit it for proper presentation to the professor. It makes it easier for him to write the essay himself. The other option is for him to have the AI generated information edited by a human writer so that the paper can be perfected.

Or you could be scamming each other by sending each other fake pictures. It would be better to simply move on and forget the scam that is being run on you. You cannot run to the authorities with this picture since it does not prove the identity of your blackmailer. It just proves he knows how to scour the web for free images or, he knows how to use an AI to create a pretty believable image of a non-existent person. Don't waste your time on this. If your employer has not received any communication from him, your employer never will.

There is no way that a writer can predict how many hours he will need to write each essay section. Some areas may take longer to write than the others due to the complexity of the topic being written about. It is important that the writer knows how to manage a writing schedule, as opposed to simply managing his writing time. Following a writing schedule for the completion of the essay, regardless of the time one will have to allot to each section is a more realistic way of managing your time when writing an essay.
