I'm new here and it's my first time posting anything on this site, I used to come here to read what people say about companies etc till I decided to use The Essayist for my PhD thesis (well this is because I found a lot of positive feedback about them here).

Anyways to make the story short, I talked to HK about everything I need as I already done few chapters by myself and need someone to incorporate and develop my work\ideas. Hala initial idea was to rewrite the chapters that I've already done - for free & develop my ideas (I agreed on this as English is my second language, and for any native writers it won't be the best, I admit).

After we agreed to split the work into chapters so I can pay on monthly basis, I paid for the first 20 pages which almost makes a chapter (as I already done that chapter, it just needed some development) and as I said it would be rewrote for free. Anyways, after two months waiting I received two chapters, but what 100% plagiarized - the only work that was clean is my work. It didn't take me long to find out and notified Hala about it, she honestly agreed and gave me a full refund and also promised to do all my research for free as their policy: "No plagiarism or $15,000 and your research for free".

Again Hala promised to do all my research for free, but what about the $15,000? She didn't even mention this amount at all. Also what's about the time (2 months) waiting?

Now it's been a month since Hala promised to do my research for free, and I haven't got anything yet even she promised to deliver the work within a week!

So far I just got a plagiarized paper with promises to receive a free research but nothing about the $15,000 they promise on their website (also ignoring all/most of my emails since).

The question is, will I get the research as they promised and what about the 15,000 fine for plagiarism? - this will prove if they legit or not....

I will update your info if anything changed, and hope Hala would comment on this as well.

Cheers;
