ok, so i have an unexpected medical situation monopolizing my time and need assistance meeting a deadline and am quite leery of getting the wrong help, from the wrong company - how to filter the good from the bad and get legitimate and neccessary assistance? especially with a portion of my paper needing basic spss data performed/included?

1.) sort of - it would be nice to make sure any order i make is selected by an actual writer ;)
2.) on that aspect, agreed ;)
3.) understood, which is why i'm looking for help/direction with filtering approach, not a recommendation ;)

writersbeware, i suppose this topic is more in line with my situation as well - what to do to ensure money (and precious time) isn't wasted...

well, i submitted a brief estimate request from *********.com and essay writer, hopefully 1.) they're legitimate 2.) timely 3.) cost effecient ;)

about how long for a response usually? already received initial (non-automated) one from the second... been reading around the 'net and getting tad leery on one, but could be just a few instances, you can't always please everyone. and i think there would be even more instances returned for scam on google if they were...

ok, so since this thread is about advice in an urgent situation, i'll ask the following in hopes of receiving an answer that doesn't violate some code speak (or whatever my previous posts seem to cross the line of) and result in movement/discarding:

since making a hefty payment in order to meet the required deadline of research, i have heard nothing back, when prior to making payment it was instant response times from customer support. my urgency simply leads me to seek advice as to if this is normal operating procedures as writers are diligently working, or if i should have at least been contacted from a writer for any questions or clarifications on the research by now?

this is meant to seek a legitimate answer, as i am new to the process, not as an insult - at any rate, with the amount of money involved i would think communication from service providers would be first and foremost a priority?

thought since my question was answered, i'd post & share it with others who may find this info useful in the future.

"you will not hear from the writer unless he/she encounters a specific problem that prevents him/her from proceeding further."

so, guess that's it - just patience for now! ;)

so, here's the update on *********.com:

Friday, December 04, 2009 7:24 PM EST - First Response To Web Site Inquiry

Friday, December 04, 2009 8:39 PM EST - Final Discussions/Clarifications/Request Payment Info

Friday, December 04, 2009 9:04 PM EST - Payment Sent (48HRS option)

Friday, December 04, 2009 9:05 PM EST - Payment Sent (48HRS option)

Friday, December 04, 2009 9:25 PM EST - Payment "Specs" Sent

Friday, December 04, 2009 9:31 PM EST - Payment "Specs" Sent

now i'm being informed atm by customer service that they have just processed everything a few hours ago and (after receiving the "you will not hear from the writer unless he/she encounters a specific problem that prevents him/her from proceeding further." yesterday) that "without an extension of some sort, it may not be possible." right before the deadline...

i'm only praying this can be resolved positively and quickly... anyone with "advice" on this "urgent situation"?

so, this site is about what exactly then? if you cannot post about situations, scams, or other dilemmas essay "sites" pose? and how would not specific examples of case in point be pertinent? especially when the thread topic, inside of a forum entitled "esay writing services", is about "advice in an urgent situation"?!?!

well, from the front page of essayscam.org:

"They also fail to inform their clients that the example papers they sell are often plagiarized, or won't be delivered on time. When the clients complain, these companies often threaten to sue their own clients!

Because they drape American or British flags as well as "independent certificates of quality" over their websites, and repeat words like "honesty" and "integrity," students or prospective employees are tricked into thinking they are legitimate and legal companies.

Having witnessed some of the outrageous, misleading, slandering, speculative, and humorous behaviors, we have created this website to entertain readers and give them a better idea about the essay writing industry, academic freelance writing issues, and running an online writing business. Please take all posted messages with a pinch of salt; don't believe anyone but yourself and your own writing and research skills!"

i'm sorry if its a problem for you somehow, but i would take that as an idea of one of the things able to be discussed here. for those of who have never had to use these sorts of services, we are looking to find someplace that can offer real feedback, and talk about areas of concern, or just find out as much as we can before we simply dole out huge sums of money to "online" entities...

i don't know about you, but i do not know anyone at *********.com, have no vested interest in them, so why does it seem to matter so much to you??? i am just trying to seek advice, and post my personal experiences in hopes they can help my situation, and others who might end up in it!

you know, i find it quite odd and rather intriguing that you find this of such a personal bothering nature, and that you suggest that you somehow care more about this web site more than i do about my investment...

the entire story is rather quite simply outlined in the timeframe put forth previously.

the only additional information that i was just made aware of by the company itself, AFTER that posting, was that i had sent three of those payment "specs" their way, instead of just two as the first was sent without a file i had decided to attach, and that the email address from the payment differed from the primary email address. these two factors are what contributed to they 48 hours delay, although the delay wasn't discovered until 24 hours AFTER my question if everything was alright on their end - for which i posted their response previously.

i do understand human error, and simple nuances that can lead to clerical errors resulting in such mistakes. i can and will overlook that. i am now however further pressed into a corner that i had turned to their services to render help in after careful consideration, and am hoping, as frustrating as it is, that they do their best to rectify the situation now that they are fully aware of it.

"we have created this website to entertain readers and give them a better idea about the essay writing industry, academic freelance writing issues, and running an online writing business. Please take all posted messages with a pinch of salt"

writersbeware, i find all of those bases being touched on here, and i might suggest that you pay particular attention to that last sentence offered on the front page of this web site.

to that, i 110% agree! ;)

was it ever even suggested? nope, questions, advice, and frustration - that is all.


the conversation - to which there are BOUNTIFUL examples of here at this web sites forum that have absolutely NOTHING to do with being defrauded or scammed (have you read some of your own tit for tat with other "insiders" which have nothing to do with the aformentioned topics either?!?! i mean, seriously?!?!) - was in regards to "advice in an urgent situation"...

you seem to not tolerate certain parameters in others that you venture outside of yourself quite often, and seem to do so rather conveniently. i don't care if took me five minutes or five seconds to figure that out, "writersbeware".

case in point.

besides, when you say:


i think that speaks volumes for itself and your interests, since i didn't know this was a corporately sponsored site, and had never referenced any forum members...

good to know, as i thought this was an independent site for information about servicers, not for servicers...

again, i still believe i made the right choice in the company i decided to go with, despite errors that have caused delay in an already frustrating situation. hopefully this opportunity will be taken positively and correct things in such a manner that avoids similar mistakes for any future customers of theirs, and end amicably and beneficially to both.

?

just put your name into the search field at the top of the web site, as i (recently) did.

google is your friend, an amazing one too.

writersbeware, you are the one playing dumb, and you're only insulting yourself.

please stop the silliness, and if unknowledgeable customers (even potential) of service sites wander in here once in a while saying good, bad, or indifferent things, use your knowledge (and time) to help guide them and find resolve one way or another rather than run atop everyone that arrives here.

since you - good, bad, or indifferent - seem to spend your life in here, maybe if you stopped playing games (referencing above quote) and saw that people were coming in here "off the street" with legitimate directional concerns, curiousities, and frustrations you could help them find positive resolve - just a thought.

ahhh, but we all act in our own self-interests, don't we "writersbeware"? enough so that this forum serves its purpose for you in that very nature, enough so to get "instant alerts" upon every change! :D

good day to you ms. - enjoy your playground! ;)

first i would like to say that shortly after the 48hr mark had passed (both the time frame requested and paid for, as well as the deadline neccessary for the research in and of itself) i had requested a refund, and received it.

second, the distraction made here and somehow within said company by writersbeware felt akward and unprofessional. helpful, knowledgeable, friendly, advice - which is what people do come here for as well as to report on "scams", regardless of whether its an unintended consequence of the sites existence or not - would have sufficed to us "non-insider" layman.

third, although there was a little more to it pheelyks, i believe you made a great analogy in a very respectful manner. truly appreciated.

long story short, somehow the aforementioned mishaps led to the research order not getting processed until just a few hours prior to deadline, and by that point there was no writer available to handle the order.

pheelyks is 110% correct this is not a "scam", its a frustrating disappoinment and valuable lesson learned at my expense for any future potential customers in a bind to carefully consider prior to selecting any research/writing company - you can never ask too many questions for clarification upfront, during the process, and in the end you are still ultimately responsible if the ball gets dropped by even a "reputable" company...
