Approval Ready Consulting (ARC) is a consulting service run by Michael Song that offers assistance with dissertations and academic projects. My experience with ARC, specifically with Michael Song, was disappointing and marred by deceptive business practices.
On February 12,2024, I entered into a detailed contract with Mr. Song, outlining the assistance I needed with my dissertation. I took great care to ensure that all terms were agreed upon before making any payments. Despite the initial positive impression, my experience quickly turned sour.
After paying a significant deposit, Mr. Song agreed to provide edited versions of my dissertation Chapters 1-3 within two weeks. However, when the deadline approached, he demanded additional payments before delivering the work I had already paid for. This demand for more money and the refusal to provide the agreed-upon services without additional payment raised red flags.
Mr. Song's tactics of asking for more money before delivering the promised work appeared to be manipulative and deceptive. Despite my insistence on receiving the completed chapters before making any further payments, Mr. Song continued to press for more money, creating a situation that felt coercive and unethical.
In the end, I never received the edited chapters as promised. This experience left me frustrated and disappointed, but I was fortunate that my bank was able to protect me from potential financial loss due to fraud and misrepresentation.
In light of my experience with ARC and Michael Song, I strongly advise anyone considering their services to proceed with caution. It is essential to document all agreements in writing and to be wary of any requests for additional payments before the agreed-upon services are delivered. Based on my experience, I recommend considering alternative options for dissertation assistance, such as self-editing or working with reputable local companies.
Overall, my experience with Approval Ready Consulting was a cautionary tale of deceptive business practices and a lack of integrity in fulfilling commitments. It serves as a reminder to exercise diligence and skepticism when engaging with consulting services.
Also, many Americans have at some point defaulted on a credit card, student loan, auto loan, etc. so post something of relevance. Let's start with the APA format of my dissertation chapters 1-3.

I'm rating my experience a three-star because my first order was canceled. The seller had already sold the item on another platform and stated that he gets a lot of spam from this site. Tradesy staff should do a better job at vetting their sellers. Why would you list this one item on multiple platforms without updating each of them? Anyways, I will try finding a comprobable item.
Pricing and quality of pre owned items.
Hi There,
We really hope you're staying healthy and well. We just wanted to take a moment to thank you for your recent feedback regarding your Tradesy experience.
We really appreciate you bringing this to our attention. We are so sorry this has been your experience with us.
It is such a huge inconvenience to spend the time it takes to find the right item only to have the seller cancel the order. While it is a challenge to prevent situations like this from happening, we do monitor seller cancelation rates. This helps us keep the site as healthy as possible for all users.
We certainly appreciate your feedback! We will be sure to share it with our team in hopes that we'll be able to use these opportunities to grow in the right direction. If there's anything else you need please let us know we can be reached 7 days a week by emailing team@tradesy.com. We want to do anything we can to make each experience worthy of your best possible rating!

We have clear proof that you did not adhere to the agreement of the contract. As anyone can see, most of the legitimate reviews about ARC online (see Better Business Bureau) are positive. We made every attempt at an amicable resolution with Mardarious since he was refusing to make a payment on time that he had agreed to over a week before. He was unwilling to listen to anything or open to any kind of a resolution, and we have zero qualms about posting any of the communication details needed to respond to Mardarious's claims (they were prompt, addressed all of his concerns, etc.). ARC has consultants who are hired from only the most prestigious institutions in the world (verifiable), and we have many happy clients who will vouch for how reliable we are throughout their dissertation journey. We are sick and tired of all the naysayers who do not understand our mission and passion, but this will not deter us from putting our best efforts out there. No human system is perfect, but we are confidently able to say we truly look after our clients who trust us every step of the way unlike most other firms in this industry. UPDATE 2/29: Our team did a check on Mardarious Tyson (M.D. Tyson) due to his continued harassment, and here is a link (appears to be involved in multiple legal cases in the LA area): https://trellis.law/case/23cmcv00417/first-national-bank-omaha-a-national-banking-association-vs-mardarious-m-tyson
