Not yet but I've managed to get Fastessays to agree to send it to me WITHOUT them seeing a copy of my personal documents. The writer has asked for an extension to the deadline because Fastessay told him/her to stop work on it yesterday while they were arguing with me. I've agreed to 12 hours extension.

I have hopes. The people in the office speak poor English, but from the emails I've exchanged with the writer I think s/he is a native speaker.

I'll keep you posted.

Well, I got the essay. It was written by a native English speaker and the grammar and vocabularily were fine, but it wasn't anywhere near 2:1 standard. Narrative not analysis in the main, tho' I had said narrative was not required, and it rambled away from the point.

However, I used it as a base to build on. Probably used about a third of it, and had to put in about 5 hours work myself. So - expensive for what I got. It was the first time I've used an essay writing service and I won't use one again.

The difficulty is in recognising a good one. Since reading this site I've seen every writing service I've ever heard of slated as poor/useless. Can't afford to waste any more money like that.
