Hi

I have been a victim of essaywriters.net. It is easy to fall victim of such companies. I had been refused payment for nearly 6 months on account of plagiarism . Only one paper had been checked and I couldnot even understand it .They claimed I hadn't given correct references even though the lines mentioned were my own and not taken from anywhere. I asked about payment and they said after all were checked.

After months of waiting and seeing fines imposed on the ones checked still no payments. Supposedly all had to be checked. It is ridiuculous. After mnay months only two papers had plagirsm and the other 10 were ok but I had to wait 8 months for payment.

this company definately tries not to pay its writers .The plagiarism check is not fair as it detects anything .
Then the sytem imposes fines of late submission or low quality as well which are things to beware of as low quality can be just an unsatisfied customer .

Tracy

Hi

I think we need to get together to sort them out

Workfromhomemom, how much did you receive? How long did it take for you to get that half?

I finally got paid, a week later, then the next payment was on time, but the point is that any real company worth their salt would not have a problem sending a paypal payment because the banks are closed on the weekends when its an automated payment system, then they give bs excuses about their freaking accountants being away...apparently they all go on vacation when payments are due.

received 400 a month ago - half the amount i was supposed to receive last march. the other half due me was kept by EW.net

it was a long wait that i actually quit waiting. you see, the payments were shifted from february to march to april, and then again to may, june, etc by EW.net. i wasn't certain about my actual date of payment because EW.net loved shifting payment schedules from one month to the next.

like i said before, feedback from customers were always good yet EW.net made huge cuts on my earnings claiming dissatisfaction from customers, late upload dates, plagiarism, and cancelled orders -- and dig this -- three months after i've delivered the goods!

so writers out there planning to join the EW.net team -- write for them at your own risk...

hello everyone, i just found this forum, and i'm glad i did. i have been writing for essaywriters.net for about 8 months now, and i do have some issues about

work and payment from the company. i also have found the posts here make quite an interesting read, and i want to say hello to Amy:-) you sound very pissed off at the company, and i can understand how you feel. i get annoyed with the company sometimes, due to payment delays. like i told them, nobody likes working without getting paid. that said, i really think that they actually do hold back writer's payments when they have a good reason for doing so. i think that with time and experience, any good writer who perseveres will become able to avoid those reasons for payment delays, especially plagiarism.

Essay writers.net claim to be the best freelance research service but they are the worst for writers. I have lost about $750 without payment from this company. They get all work done and when it comes to payment, they tell the work is plagiarised and the penalties will be higher than the actual payment. After doing so much of hard work, nothing is left. I am happy that they never asked money from me. essaywriters.net is the number one fraud in the industry. they should be shut down.

EW, do you honestly think that a writer who applied to EW and avoided any plagiarism of any kind wouldn't experience problems with being paid? It's slow season, I'm enjoying my time off between travelling and I'm honestly thinking about applying to see how things go (and no, after 2+ years of doing this, the hint of plagiarism hasn't even beenn raised).

EW, do you honestly think that a writer who applied to EW and avoided any plagiarism of any kind wouldn't experience problems with being paid?

I didn't say that, and I'm more than willing to admit that there have been plenty of occasions wherein I've had very irritating troubles concerning payment with the company. However, these troubles consist only a handful of the almost 2000 papers that I've done for them so far. I've been vocal enough about how I think that ew would always put their own interests first before their writers or customers but then i wonder what academic paper mill wouldn't or doesn't.

You're applying to ew, Lavinia? Well, I can't say I welcome your competition. :P I've taken a month off since it's the slow season anyway and I need to get geared up and focused for my day job. All I'm trying to point out is that chella_stanite here probably did plagiarize which was why even if the customer didn't complain and ask for a refund, she'd stand to lose her payment which ew would probably keep for themselves. This is sleazy and unfair but this also proves that chella_stanite should learn how to write academic papers better and avoid what copy-pasting she probably has been used to doing.

Probably not applying, so don't worry =) It was just a passing thought. In the US, I can work for an infinite number of clients and not claim taxes from them as long as I don't earn more then 300$. That gives me some flexibility in taking small jobs that don't pay very well b/c they're saving me the 1/3 to 1/4 that I would pay in taxes (ie., I was thinking that a job worth 8$ at EW would functionally be worth 12$ b/c of the no taxes). So, even if I did apply, I'd only be taking a few jobs a year.

But I have enough ideological problems with the company that I don't think it would be right for me to work for them... besides, it's more fun to occasionally butt heads with you.

Doh, rereading this, I guess my post came off as a bit self-serving.

I think I've posted this elsewhere, but just to clarify - I do, on occasion, apply to the companies accused of fraud in order to check them out. I typically do that for 2-3 projects (ie, staying well below the $300 mark), see if they pay, etc. I've done it for premiumwriting, authorsmania, and a few others I can't think of off the top of my head. I don't post about the results b/c I'm not sure that a job or two is really a good basis for discussion but I've found it helps me to get a better idea of how things work.

I haven't done it for EW yet just b/c there are so many complaints about the company. But EWwriter's comments made me thing it would be worth checking out, but his more recent comments pretty much confirmed anything that I could hope to learn by applying to check them out.

Anyway, that should clarify things.

i take it back. i withdraw my las post here. i tried everything i could to avoid the unjust fines, but its just not possible, as the are actually hunting for the fines. i dont know why essaywriters.net is so wicked. i mean, how can they be behaving like this? after a writer takes all the stress of writing a difficult paper, they refuse to send payment when it is time to pay. evan after deducting huge fines from your money. this is terrible. i wish i had known their true character from the beginning

THEY ARE SUCH THIEVES. MAY GOD PUNISH THEM SEVERELY. HOW CAN U KEEP UR FELLOW HUMAN BEING WAITING FOR HIS PAYMENT FOREVER WHEN U KNOW FULLY ELL YOU DON'T INTEND TO SEND HIM THE MONEY. DEVILS. VERY EVIL B---ARDS. I AM DEFINITELY GOING TO FIND SEVERAL WAYS TO HURT THEM BACK CONTINUOUSLY, FOR THE LONG RUN.

when i was working there, they used to play all sorts of tricks on me like adjusting the time without telling me. now they have refused to pay me what they owe me. what sort of human beings are these? why do they do this kind of thing?

I completely blame myself, i read all this warnings in this blog and still went on to registering with essaywriters. I have worked for then since August, have never received any single penny from them. Whenever i check my earning, notice some deductions on the orders i did 3 months ago. These guys are really scammers, been trying to follow up on my salary payment but they still come up with excuses. This is 2009 Feb, Essaywriters if u reading this, i deserve to be paid what i worked for, You know so well i deserve it, cant wait to see you rot in hell.

I have had a similar experience with essaywriters.net. I started working for them 2 years ago and never had a problem with payment thru my Paypal until recently. I always took small assignments never over $50. And was always paid on time. However, recently they sent me a private order to do a journal response for a book. At first the order was put on hold by support and then suddenly a couple days before due the order came off hold. I requested an extension which it took the customer til the day before due to extend. Then I did the order exactly to the specs on the order info, finishing on time, and it took the customer 5 days to even download my order. I noticed that the earnings for this $85 job were not in my summary and when i questioned it they said the customer was dissatisfied. Another 10 days later they tell me I have a revision request to complete in 6 hours a summary of the book to go with my order. Naturally since in the middle of my workday there was no way i could meet this request. So they reassigned the order and are now telling me that I earn $0 because I requested a reassignment late in the order. I explained my side and how this person has my work and is probably turning it in to their professor. I told them I should at least earn half. Also the summary was never a part of the original order so why should I be punished for this lame customer? NOw I am even angrier because an order I did for $25 is not being paid because they are showing in my earnings that i owe them the $85!!!??? Imagine that!

Needless to say even after 2 years of smalll earnings and pay on time and several bonuses for good feedback, I don't think I will be writing for EW anymore:( And they have lost the good writer due to lack of caring.

Hey guys. I've read through this forum and must admit that I am a bit concerned. I recently signed up for essaywriters.net after hearing about the site from a classmate. For the week I've been a member, I have written about $100 worth of material. This should be paid to me via PayPal sometime next month. I have already received positive feedback bonuses and have had requests for private orders. Sooooo.... we'll see what happens, I have been pleasantly satisfied with the site so far and assignment requests (lots of interesting arts/literature/humanities type essays available!) I will report back by mid May, after I should have received my first payment.

I'm sorry, but if you are voluntarily writing for the Ukrainian frauds at essaywriters.net, despite the plethora of scam evidence posted by hundreds of different people in this forum and elsewhere across the Internet, you deserve the inevitable ripoff that is coming your way. Their scam depends on people just like you.

Ew_newbie, do not invest any trust in a single word that EW_writer spews forth. He is both an agent of essaywriters.net from Ukraine AND an admitted fraudster who intentionally lies to customers.

If you are interested in reading LEGAL EVIDENCE concerning the ongoing fraud of essaywriters.net, simply look here:

Well, well, well... I have some updates for any interested lurkers. My payment from essaywriters.net was due May 15, but has yet to be processed in my PayPal. I e-mailed the staff asking about this. I received quick response about problems with PayPal and that I would receive my money during the next pay period. Needless to say, I am not that surprised considering what I have read here already. Naturally I did not write too much for them during this period (instead waiting to see if I got paid before taking on more orders). Now, I will give them until next pay period to fix this error, and, of course, won't be writing anything else for them until I get my money.

Hopefully! If they were not scammers why do they, through Bestessays and Superior Papers promise customers that:

1)"Your order will be written by a certified writing professional with a MD/ PhD degree in your particular subject of study." While I do have a PhD, essaywriters never, once, asked me for proof of my qualifications - not once! Not only that but, on essaywriters.net they state: "If you hold Bachelor, Masters or PhD degree ..." They are recruiting writers with BA degrees despite promising customers MA and PhD writers ...

2) "We never resell our essays, term papers, dissertations or any other documents." Yet, they do resell papers through mighty student.

3) Why do they claim to be American/British when they are Ukrainian?

I believe that, at this point, the only logical conclusion one can reach is that essaywriters.net is a legitimate company and Yuri is nothing other than a god-fearing saint ...

Sorry for the late reply. Anyways, after EssayWriters neglected to pay me that first instance (and promised to pay me two payments the following period) ... I was skeptical I would get paid at all. On the first day I was supposed to be paid, I contacted the customer support and basically said I hadn't been paid, nor saw that my payment was processing. By the next morning, all the money that had been owed me appeared in my PayPal account.

So while I am not entirely sure how much of a scam EW is ... I did get paid, after a bit of a headache ... I decided not to write an more orders for the site, at least until I see an order that appears interesting and pays well. I would be weary of doing more than a few essays a month. Just be sure to be on the ball.
