I need work from a company (or person) that actually pays.

I hope this is all right to post, I am just so frustrated with essaywriters.com and academiaresearch.com (I know, they are from Ukraine, but there are few choices these days), and I need to generate income for my family. I don't know what else to do and I am so tired of working for people that always have an excuse not to pay me.

Paying WritersThe most recent was that they (academia) were waiting for confirmation that the customers do not need a revision, a "new company policy" that oddly has never came up in the last 2 years I have been working for them. I get paid on time about half the time from academia, and essay writers will always find a reason to dock your pay.

I have been freelance writing for academic papers for a few years, prior to that I was a customer account manager at Dell and prior to that I was a nursing home manager. I am a University of Phoenix BA in general business studies graduate. I have plenty of writing experience and business and nursing management experience.

Basically, I have been working from home for the last few years because of family medical problems, otherwise I would be back in management.

I am getting so frustrated because I work for 4 different essay writing companies and only 2 of them have actually paid me a decent wage on time. I also started my own website, but as all of you know it takes money to make money and I don't have the money to put into advertising.

If you need an essay, thesis, dissertation, web content, blog content, or article written I would be very happy to do so. I'm tired of having issues with companies, and I'm sure you are too.

Also if you can direct me to a good company I would be thankful.

[Moved from]: Hi! Can anyone recommend a few writing sites for employment?

I have been writing for essaywriters.net for two years. Recently, they froze my salary because they claim that I received a horrible survey response on an order that I completed. The order that I completed was from November of 2007! They owe me $320 for this pay period and conveniently froze my salary the day before paypal deposits were due. I informed them I was looking elsewhere and that I was tired of revising papers for people who could not speak proper English.

Help!

There are a lot of good freelance writing sites that feature want ads for all types of writing jobs, such as online-writing-jobs.com (one that I've used in the past). Essay companies as well as other jobs will be featured on such sites. They're probably more useful than coming to sites like this one and asking about specific companies that may or may not be hiring.

Good Luck (sorry to hear about EW, I hope that you keep trying to get your money back).

Hey jennifer. EW also put my pay on hold because of 'plagiarism issues', but after I bombarded them with dozens of 0% plagiarism reports from mydropbox.com, they immediately decided to pay me. i think it's all a matter of standing up for yourself and demanding what is rightfully yours.

Personally, I have worked for several different ones over the years, and got ripped off in a major way by two of them. I got my money back from one by reporting them to the federal authorities, and the other one I am going to hurt very badly. They owe me for a month's worth of papers that I wrote and I will will take it out of their hides, every nickel's worth.

Their representatives are too cowardly to show up here and defend their actions, although the two they did have on here, WB and Pheelyx. were such lunatics and abusive jerks that they hardly did ***/** any great credit.

Fortunately, I don't work for any of them now.

My most important criteria for any of these outfits is whether they pay their writers fairly and on time, and many do not.

I know of only one company that has met all of their promises made to me and have never let me down with payment. I have worked for many different companies, and you have to stick with the honest and proven companies.

Here is a hint of the company name:

They have the word "papers" and the word "custom" in the url.

Yes, I did work with them in the past and I can say that they never cheated me on money.

Well, well, I can say that that's another DND discuss outfit that paid me everything I was owed only after I reported them to the Justice Department and the Federal Trade Commission. They just wanted those complaints to go away, and I never worked for them again after that.

As for the other company that now chooses to remain nameless, they thought I was bluffing when I said that I would take action, and that they would crush me like a bug. Others have tried that and found out differently. LOL.

The other one that always paid me what I was owed had "manuscript" and "services" in it's name--a UK company--so that makes two that I can say never cheated me.

academiaresearch.com

This company currently has a problem with their payment system. They are unable to pay writers who are not based in a country that has a reputation for bank transfer fraud. All of their payment systems require their writers to be based on Europe or the Ukraine. That is because those are the only places where their money transfer services can work. They have become an illegitimate company in every sense of the word since they can no longer pay their writers through direct and legal channels.

Both companies have a problem keeping orders coming into their servers. Both have also been releasing their low performing writers from their freelancer agreements with the companies. The reason is pretty much the same for both, there are not enough orders coming into the companies to justifiy the large writer's pool. They are keeping only their top tier writers active at this point. Even that is becoming difficult since there are more writers than there are orders. This has led these companies to further intensify their fining system since the owners of the company want to pay themselves first, the writer's second. Even their top writers have said that they get fined at least 25% of their completed fees every payment schedule these days. It is not worth it to work for academic writing companies these days. Definitely work for yourself in the same arena if you can. You might earn something that way.
