I have been working on the site for a few months now. They make timely payments and the management is good so far. I hope it remains like this. Regards.

“Don't work for these Thieves”

Aquinas W.
6/7/23

I have worked for this company for a whole year and they did not pay me a single penny. When I went on to ask they closed my account and did not even pay my balance. I had one job that got cancelled and they kept penalizing it until the fine was around 800% of the order cost.

I am Richard Oyugi, Writer *******, and my account was terminated. I was told by my Personal Manager - Olivia Moore, that I would be paid after three months which elapsed on 28th February. I was to receive my pending payments latest on 3rd March 2023, however, I have not been paid until now after waiting for such a long time. I had a balance of about $ 1000 at the time of closure, since then they have been giving fines, for orders that were done more than 3 years ago, yet I cannot access my account. This is not how to handle a writer who worked for you for more than 8 years. PLEASE PAY MY DUES
I worked as a freelance writer and editor for the company.

Tip for consumers:
Whenever I raise my complaints on payment, they give a fine, on an order that was done sometime back. Since I do not have access to the account, I am not able to verify whether the fines are justified. The fact that they do that only when I ask for my money, makes the whole system questionable. I just need my money back, I have bills to pay.

Products used:
I offered a service, and initially, they used to pay for the services. However, they started bringing up baseless issues, on plagiarism, with the intention of terminating my account and going away with my $ 1000 dollars. I did not get paid for more than 2 months that I worked for the company

Something turned wrong, and now it is more a scam than a company for freelance essay writers. Do not recommend them.

This is the worst writing company I have ever come across. Poor quality, plagiarized paper, untimely submission. From other reviews here it is clear that we pay alot and they do not compensate writers fairly so what do u expect from demotivated workers! Man Up. Pay your workers and let them serve others well because personally I will never use your services, You can stay with them

Scammers and thiefs. A racist company exploiting offsea employees. This company swindles from its employees in the name of 'paying for orders approved' yet they have all orders approved by the clients and keep the money stolen for themselves. Their customer refund policy is basically a scam and will swindle a client at any time without minding how long you have worked or even brought them work.

A scam account; Closes accounts haphazardly. Gives customers excessive powers over writers. I remember having my senior account closed because it did not look attractive despite meeting all academic requirements. Sign up at your own risk. Lowest cpp in the last century

Essaywriters.net turned rogue the minute they started hiring over 1000 writers at once and pushed the initial free test orders from 5 to 15 orders. They now do this every high season cycle so that many writers can do orders for free and they don't have to incur a dime paying writers. Once the low season comes by, they deactivate the accounts for writers who made it from Freshman to Junior level and the cycle goes all over again. It's just sad that this was a great site in the years preceding 2016. Now it's a writing giant on its death bed, due to its own undoing and greed!

Tip for consumers:
The quality has now dwindled since they now hire any type of writer, even low quality writers. Just run for your life!

This is the worst company in the freelance industry. They charge clients high amonuts while the writers get paid less. I dont understand how a broker should earn more than the real writer.In addition the $1.25 pay is stupidity of the highest order.As a customer i would advise you to avaoid their engagement as the amount they pay writers cannot motivate them to opffer quality paper.To sum it all Essaywriters is a scum that could be avoided like plague.

This is a total $#*! company. Very discriminative prices. Very discriminative support team that gives other countries 5 orders in freshman and 15 orders to Kenyan writers. Wait until we scam their customer sites.

You will work for 15 trial orders making them over 1000 usd. Still after, they will pay you less than 5 dollars per page. Modern day slavery. Writers better work for writerbay, uvocorp, and freelancewritingcenter.com instead of this scam.

Simply put, you get you what they pay for. To everybody who orders their papers through bestessay.com, rushessays.com, and other affiliate sites do not, and I repeat, DO NOT expect a quality paper. I dont care if you as the client pay $19-$81 dollars per page on the promise of a quality paper, there is no way, as a writer, I will put any significant effort in terms of quality to your paper if I only get $1 per page, I am constantly penalized for no reason, and have to deal with an uncooperative support system. This is the worst site to order your paper from. Consider yourselves warned.

Demanding that new writers complete 15 free orders when they are paid by customers is despicable! They exploit workers to the max. No regard for humanity.

21st century slavery at its worst!
If there is a platform that has sucked life and blood from excellent writers, then here it is. The lowest rates ever, large penalites for flimsy reasons.

A company that believes in conning writers! These Ukrainian guys have little to no respect for the writers' hard work! Malicious fines, careless closure of accounts due to "insecurity"... and now they have started the nonsense of having writers work on the first 15 orders WITHOUT pay. Evil sadists!

A client pays USD 40 per page, they pay a writer USD 1.25 and expect quality work. Ends up terminating accounts without giving reason, and apply unnecessary fines, or refuse to pay altogether. If you want the best paying freelance company, which treats writers with decorum, avoid essaywriters.net as a plague

Never ever give your paper to the affiliates associated with this account. I am a disgruntled writer and I promise to ensure you FAIL SUCCESSFULLY. Some of the sites include: bestessays.com
uk.bestessays.com
bestessays.com.au
bestessays.net
bestessays.org
Try and see how not to graduate.

Poor pay, unjustified fines, proud support, lies after lies... a company capable of all manner of evil. They think that because writers want work, the company has a right to urinate or defecate on their dignity and can be exploited like oxen or donkeys.

The scammers will just close your account for no apparent reason, we as writers should stop writing for them and all their affiliates till they learn to respect us. Just like any other job writing is a daily hustle for some of us

Just hours ago, my writer profile on essaywriters.net, which has been in existence for about a year and a half was terminated. Reason? They could not verify my payment details, which I have been using for the last one and a half years, and actually, the last payment, 5 days ago was made using the same details. Is there a bigger scam?

Tip for consumers:
Do not use this company. Steals from the employees as well as the clients

Closes accounts for no reasons. Whenever you have accumulated good cash like $400 they close down claiming security reasons. You can imagine how painful that is given the below $5cpp.
