It is common practice for writing companies to ask their writers to create work related testimonials for various purposes. These may be used to entice applicants at the company site or, maybe used at various review and investigative sites to help counter negative publicity. I don't All anything wrong with that since itis all part of public relations and advertising for the company. Now, the writers need to set up accounts to access the site sections. Nothing wrong withthem all doing it on the same date. Unless I see I.P. evidence pointing to the same location creating the identities, I would not give the date of profile creation much thought. It doesn't prove a scam or effort to fool anyone.

No, as this is a public forum. Private messages defeat the purpose.

Yes, this is a public forum. It is a place to openly discuss a topic as started by the original poster. all conversations must relate in topic and relevance to the original topic. What you tried todo was start a newdiscussion topic addressed to a single person. The O.P. was right to make that request. It wasn't fair of you to try and hijack his thread. something that you often did during your active time here. Towards the end, WB had successfully hijacked the thread towards his own purposes. something that seems to be a normal practice at this forum for him and his like. Would it have hurt any of you to just once try to stay on topic in a lengthy thread?

Are the sites that are listed on 'Essaynews' verifiable as delivering what they offer?

Yes. You can rely on the companies listed in EssayNews to deliver as promised. The moderators of this forum have completed all the necessary reputation checks on those companies so you won't have to. However, if you have specific writing needs or requests, it still won't hurt foryou to do some checking of your own when you are close to hiring a company. Just to be on the safe side.

General Talk / Original papers or not? [29]

Turnitin isn't the most accurate way of judging the originality of a paper, no matter what educators say. The company is just using an academically supported way of stealing student information and data. They cannot be relied an to properly analyze a paper because it relies on A.I. technology , which doesn't function in the same way a human would. Personally, I prefer to assume that a paper is original if the writer followed my instructions and provided proper citations in the paper. a simple google search of certain paragraphs would also be a better basis than any software available for plagiarism checking.

I can assure you that there is no malware or virus

Actually, you can't. While the students may accidentally upload an infected file, these websites often attach malware and trojans to files being . downloaded by the writers, usually for the purpose of gaining data on the writer for future use. oThe same practice is also applied to the client files downloaded from the company server.

I wish that this company could be shutdown. It is sad to knowthat the Philippines is so lawless that their laws allow for these criminal companies to remain in existence.It appears that nothing can closedown the operation and there is no court in that country that would dare to do so. I am angry everytime I come across their online ads seeking for a new set of innocent writer hirees for their scam. These people are looking for a way to make money without resorting to cumimal acts, instead they fall into the hands of criminals. I can't help but wonder if they will ever meet their match.

Students do not care about how writers are abused by the writing companies. They only worry about the quality of the paper they recieve. Now those who just need the paper completed will not care about the final product. Yes, there are some clients like that. Others, will just put up with revisions till they getthe paper they want. The company will always have new hires willing to produce quality work till they learn the truth about the company. That is why the companies will stay in business, that is why the company will not runout of writers of some sort of quality either.

Calling each other names did not solve anything did it? Nobody got paid and the scammer just laughed his way to the bank. I sincerely c doubt that any of these writers got paid before the company changed ownership. A last ditch effort to keep the company running. Not that it helped anybody either. The only reason I revived this thread is to show the new forum members how not to conduct themselves here when discussing any topic.Insults never provide a decent and helpful discussion. It only proves the participants immaturity.

uvocorp is a company that doesnt know how to compute simple math . They seem to believe that their writers do not know how to count the calendar months either. They believe that they can delay payments up to 6 months and the writers will hang on and keep working for free , or until the company decides to pay them. The company is a scam on both ands. The owners con both the clients and writers. How students keep hiring the company knowing these facts is beyond me. Why the writers still keep applying to work for them is another mystery . However, I do not approve of their regular writers practice of not submitting work on time or failing to submit at all in an effort to punish the company.

I specifically told them would be unacceptable.

Students need to remember that they agree to the Terms of service when they decideto hire the company. That includes an agreement to the non-negotiable refund lerms . since the company stipulated a 70 % refund, and the student didn't txy to negotiate different refund terms at that point, then he has no choice but to accept the previously agreed upon terms. I am not sayingthat he should not try toget a full refund, just that students should learn to accept previously agreed upon terms asa part ofthe electronic contract.

EssayScam and its moderators have the sole discretion to determine what constitutes an advertisement.

Last I read, WB was not registered as a company owner or moderator at this forum. Therefore, he never had the right to determine what might constitute an advertisement offer. O.P. was correct to cite the regulation about how and what sort of posts can be made here. It has always been a misconception that only negative reviews, and warnings can be left here. In fact, the forum owners wish they could see more positive reviews here. according to my inside sources, a positive review does not constitute an endorsement. It only speaks of the client experience. Provided no reference is made that would appear to be suggesting that students directly hire the company or independent writers, then ,the post will not be considered an endorsement or advertisement by those actually in charge of policing the forum threads .

What I would have liked to have read a better defense from the O. P, to prove that he wasn't the company owner. his lack of defense just proved his guilt in the matter and killed his chances of having a properly accepted academic writing company in our community. What a wasthe of his time this all was.at least, he was caught early on and the students were informed of the con before any of them could have been adversely affected by the almost believable con. Great detective work everyone.

You CANNOT have a top rate company, however, that doesn't pay its writers a top rate salary.

It is a top rate company in the scamming owners mind. If the labor of others, who are paid peanuts helps him to live the lifestyle he wants for himself, if his ownership of such a company affords him bragging rights among his peers, then in their minds (that includes the owner), the company is top rate.

He isn't a smear doc producer.Based on my experience,these " producers " are actually competitor site owners or people wishing to set up their own system, based on the experience of existing writers. Note that the email address of the 11 producer " doesn't sound professional in any way. He is merely fishing for information, there is no actual documentary being produced.

The last time I got a blatantly plagiarized paper I snapped. I have decided to create a new service which will NOT plagiarize material and will NOT overcharge people.

That is not what a student would do. However, a scam company owner or promoter would do exactly that after pretending to be a student.I know that the op can only be one of the 2 due to the content of the post. It was definitely meant to malign the competition and recruit unsuspecting ESL writers.surely nothing good came of these evil intentions.

I would like to know if demanding 4 pages and paying only 1 is normal in this business

That is not normal practice among legitimate companies. We always charge extra when needed.Only a fraudulent company would do that.Usually because they are reselling the paper, not because the client requested for a revision . A writer is within his rights to refuse such a revision when asked to do so.

Whatever you do don't belive any company that claims to have offices in Australia. not if you come across it doing a personal online search. Don't believe [ anyone who approaches you directly ether.Recommendations are another way of deceiving you.

Who would've thought that the educational landscape would have been changed by a pandemic in 2020 ? An event that redefined schooling as everyone knew it. While schools were forced to shut down for most of the year , our recession proof occupation took a beating, just like all other jobs. some of us had to take a break,while others had to develop a new income stream. Through it all, we managed to survive and ride out the worst of the school closures and alternative learning experiments last year. In 2021, with the hope that we can finally beat the pandemic, also comes the hope for a year of recovery for the affected academic writers.

cheapest site essay site around

That is enough of a reason to not use their services. Anybody who economizes on the cost of work / quality of the work of their paper is asking for trouble. Seek the most affordable one for your budget, but never hire the ones that charge only a few dollars per page. That will just end up in refund court for the client. As the experience of the OP indicates, cheap usually means trash work and non existent after sales service.

I used to think that FLW owned FLWC. I am glad that my friends helped me clear that up. Just to make things clear, in case anyone is wondering or asking without actually posting the thought, FLW is in no way connected with that company. I had a student once ask me about that and that is why I poked around and learned of the difference. FLW has his own upstanding company that would never work with that company for any reason.

never deal with any company that doesn't clearly state that it is a registered company and doesn't clearly state what its street address is

That doesn't mean anything. They can purchase an address that will send the client to the middle of the everglades. All company addresses are for sale online. It may be in an actual location, but with a non existent office floor or room number, or in the middle of a softball field. You cannot rely on a published street address. They can also claim to be a registered business and even have the papers to prove it. Only for the client to discover that those papers and claims were faked as well.

Sending emails and waiting for a response does not fall under the same category of sending a chat PM and having them ignore you. For emails, give the company up to 48 hours to respond to your inquiry due to the volume of communications that they receive on a daily basis. If it is a PM, then it is the writer's obligation to respond to you. A non response from your writer over 24 hours, then you can inquire about a refund from the company. That is usually enough to make them suddenly take your order seriously.

If a writing company charges too much, then there is a possibility that you will get a good paper out of them. Quality does come at a price after all. However, if they charge a lot, but fails to deliver on client services, then you have a problem. If the company charges too affordable a price, then you can expect to get trash out that company. The ideal is to find a company with mid-range prices. That is the company that almost always delivers on all fronts. Try to find that company, or that kind of individual writer to work for you.

Now I am not able to access their website anymore from both of my computers.

This does sometimes happen in the business. If it has been less than 24 hours, then wait and see if they come back online. Sometimes a certification problem or system update prevents access from the company. If it comes back, then no worries. If they company stays offline for more than 24 hours, it will always be best to put a stop on the payment or cancel the payment. It is possible they blocked your IP addresses to prevent you from requesting for a refund. So, get their attention by stopping the payment one way or another. They will be sure to contact you then. Make sure to cancel the order with them once they contact you. You have already done them damage anyway cancelling the payment on your end.

No. The minute a company name comes across here with a DND means that company has been flagged as a scam.

Recommendations are not allowed. Sorry.

Self promotion and partner service recommendations are not allowed. The advertising all over the pages indicates that recommendations are allowed. For a fee and only after proper investigation by the detectives of this forum. They will not allow any site that has not been vetted to advertise here. The no recommendations ruling is only a precautionary measure in case there are writers or company reps that think they can use the forum to scam students. Even independent writers need to be looked into. That is why there is such a position as "FEATURED" writer here. They pay to be highlighted and discreetly promoted at this forum.

at $21 per page it can get expensive for the type of work I needed.

That's the problem with most of the student clients. They want to pay on the cheap for their paper due to the length of research required, totally disregarding the possible quality problems that may occur once they change services. When you have had a pleasant experience with a particular writing company, it is better to keep hiring them, regardless of the cost because you know that it will be money well spent. If you change companies mid-stream, it will more than likely be a disaster, as what happened in this case.

This company is a widely acknowledged scam on the internet. The students always demand a refund for the full order, which the company has promised in their ads and blurbs. However, the company as been known to disregard their own guarantees. This is what has mostly led to the majority negative reviews of the company online. However, the company often uses the PayPal defense for its broken refund promises. That is, they can "refund" in "full" and without question within 24 hours as long as the client provides the order number and a "refund" topic in the email requesting for the fund return. However, they claim that most students opt to pass through Paypal, thus tying the hands of the company when it comes to immediate refunds. They need to wait for a Paypal resolution before any refunds can be completed. Somehow, I cannot believe this excuse and I hope nobody else believes it either.

Should I wait until I get my paper and then file or file now?

Personally, I would advise waiting for the paper to come in before filing the dispute so that I would have some sort of evidence to use when I file the dispute. It will always help your case when you can prove that the work delivered was lousy. Specially now that Paypal has a non-material service guarantee that locks down the payment sent for a period of time in case you decide to file a dispute. Paypal tries to pre-protect the client at this point. They know that they cannot stop these scams from using Paypal as a form of payment, so they decided to come up with a protection guideline instead.

The company has not stopped being a scam site all these years. Leading me to wonder, what do the students see in them to make them hire the company? The negative reputation of this academic writing site is all over the internet, not just ES. They are called all sorts of names by their unsatisfied clients. Rip-offs! Plagiarists! Scammers! Cut and paste professionals! The company owners have probably heard it all. Yet, the students continue to hire them then complain afterwards. Why? Are the students really suckers for punishments? Masochists? It is weird that the company does not offer refunds, yet, there is this one case where a student still gave them a second chance. Much good that did him. What is it again that they say? A sucker is born every minute? I think that well applies in this case.

When are more writers going to wake up and leave essaywriters.net.DND?

I have spoken to some of these writers myself and I must say, I can understand their position and why they opt to stay with the company. I admit that their writers are mostly ESL, okay, maybe all ESL. Which means their writing skills are not really acceptable in true academic writing circles. However, the company hired them and there are some students who appreciate their work, regardless of the quality. They work there because to them, a job is a job. They are only after the money and the food it puts on the table, pays the bills, supports their family. Slave labor to us is good pay in their currency. It all boils down to survival for them. Specially with Covid affecting the income of most people globally, they consider themselves lucky to have a job that, although problematic at times, still helps them get through the economic crunch we are all experiencing in one form or another.

If a company can be sued, that means they have registered corporate officers, an address, landlines, attorneys... They exist in some non-Internet way.

And that, is the reason why they got successfully sued. If they were an internet based company that hid its actual ownership information from the public, it would have been more difficult to trace the paperwork, much less sue the owners successfully. Let's not forget that there have been suits filed against companies with fictitious work locations, leading to unenforceable court decisions. The virtual company owners just keep moving their location and staying beyond the reach of the law. I bet that company stopped their physical existence after they lost that case.

does it matter if the writer writing your paper comes from a country other than Britain or the U.S.?

I would have to say yes. Mostly because the writer must be familiar with the cultures, norms, social issues, public points of view, and talking syntax / writing syntax of the country the student is located in. That will help the student get a better grade because the writer will know exactly what he is expected to produce in the final paper.

3. would you refuse to order a product from a company that you know hires ESL writers?

That would depend. Is the student ENL or ESL? An ENL student should not hire an ESL writer due to speech problems related to writing. Only an ESL student might gain some full benefits from hiring an ESL writer since the language pattern will be similar in some aspects.

It is always great to see a peaceful and positive resolution to these sorts of problems. Though it is few and far between. Being upfront with the student and keeping their word when it comes to refunds helps to instill confidence in any company.

so if a particular company tells you that you're not allowed to use their paper as your turn-in paper, would you still buy from them? :)

Most students tend to disregard this warning from the company. They often assume that the paper is original anyway so they can use it any way they want. Which is why, when they get caught using the paper in class, the company has grounds not to refund the payment for the paper. The student's can't say they were not warned, they just opted not to listen.
