I have been reading the debate regarding Joe Boll and the essay agency, with both interest and trepidation.

I am a writer and have written several essays for the essay agency, and my point of contact at the time were: Ashlee, Joe Boll and Maxine. Joe was dealing with the financial side and I was told by Ashlee on several occasions that he was the boss.

I am owed just under a £800, which is now four months overdue. My phone messages were not being returned and my emails were ignored. I now find that the phone number which is listed on the website is disconnected.

These are the facts for everyone who is arguing about proof and evidence etc.

Here is one further fact. It appears from this forum that I was not the only one who was not paid for my work - there are at lease six others.

Joe Boll, I talked to you on several occassions when you assured me that payment was being posted out to me but never was, if you are reading this and feel tempted to tell me that my work was not of the required standard as you did your other writer, please don't - I never heard any complaints at the time.

Ashlee - I dealt with you with integrity and and felt at the time that you reciprocated. If you are caught up in this inadvertantly, then call me, you have my number.

Maxine - you too pretended that payment had gone out, knowing full well that it hadn't.

For anyone else who feels the need to dispute this, challnge it or take up on behalf of Joe Boll or the eassay agency, please don't waste your time. These are the facts as they happened to me. I wouldn't waste my time posting this otherwise.
