Hi Freelance Writers!
I would like to narrate an interesting story about asiawriters. I am a previous writer in Asiawriters. My writing has given me the privilege to become a writer in some of the most popular paper writing companies. But the way Asiawriters had treated me, I would suggest everbody be careful looking for a job in this company. Asia writers has a rule that writers complete three essays before they have the next level writer status. I completed one work and I did not complete the other two for some time because I heard that there is no time limit to complete the three orders. One fine morning I tried to login to my account and I could not access my account. I asked the support team. They told me your account is terminated because of inactivity. What the hell! Isn't this supposed to be a job where you get to choose your own schedule and you decide whether you work or not? I tried for months to get them to reactivate my account. But they avoided me saying that I should send a email, my account is active it has a technical problem. I send several emails but they do not answer. Yup! guess this is how a writer should be treated and guess this is what happens when a company has too many writers. So much of hard work and effort to become a writer and it ends up in nothing! Besides their payment system is not good and they have huge technical problems. Sometimes they send meaningless emails at your email and their pay is after one month from the date you complete the job. Most companies take mostly 15 days.
A company very old but with rules which are so unfavorable for its writers. Now I post this thread and some companies representative going to come and give a post stating they have never done so or they will do everything but in reality they never do so. Too bad indeed. Being over one year in the business, I know what some companies do. I know the good companies and the bad companies.
Writers beware! writers be careful while seeking employment in Asiawriters. Writers who are already there in Asiawriters beware! Be careful! Because one fine morning you may find out that you cannot access your account.

So....yet another EFL writer is surprised that a company that cheats its customers would also cheat its writers. It must be Monday.

Yes, it does. At the very least, it doesn't tell them that it's writers do not have the ability to write at a level appropriate for academic purposes.

Well if that's what you mean by cheating customers you are absolutely correct! It's true that many times the companies misrepresent, telling that their writers are native english writers but they are not in reality. There are some inherent deficiencies in a non-native writer. But this is also a fact that there are some talented non-native writers who have the ability to write similar to the native writers. And they do so by hard work and practice. If the quality of the non-native writers were so bad then none of the customers would have accepted it.
But it is a bad practice hiring every non native writer who has just learnt how to write and later delivering to their customers, the work done by them. Also misrepresenting to their customers is not morally correct though it may be profitable business policy.

Yeah, I generally think that delivering a product that doesn't meet the standards promised to a customer constitutes cheating them.

There certainly are, but there aren't many of them. I don't know of any posting on the board right now.

Customers order not knowing what they're getting, and after they've paid they might be screwed.

derrr...you think so?

You don't expect any rule (old or new) to work in your favor if you are good at breaking rules. Do you?
I highly suspect you broke several company rules before you got ditched and doomed!? For instance, you barely checked your account, at least daily, so that you could catch up with the company updates.
Were you really serious you wanted to become a freelance writer? I am sorry I cannot tolerate your nonsense any further! You deserved the unceremonious sack!

Well defended! You are very good in defending the company. There is a difference between suspecting and the reality. Besides how can you say this things without going into the details. Who are you? How do you come to know what happened? Aren't you just another person hired to protect the companies reputation? It hurts a lot when you get the pinch right? I don't get "ditched and doomed". There are several other companies who hire me.
Heremeout: For instance, you barely checked your account, at least daily, so that you could catch up with the company updates.
Well I don't know what you are saying. I checked out my account one time a week when there's no work. When there's work I checked it three to four time's most of the days. Know another thing? The companies terms and conditions did not give a covenant stating that hey you will be sacked if you don't login to your account and neither did the company gave updates about sacking writers. Rather it boastfully supported freelance ideals, like, " Each freelance writer can take orders on their own schedule", "Write a project on a topic you prefer any time convenient for you", and "We make it possible to work on your time and earn the money you want doing what you love." But in reality Asiawriters seem to be so inert when it comes to giving benefits of those ideals to its writers.
Heremeout: Were you really serious you wanted to become a freelance writer?
Hey its not a good habit to say things about persons you don't fully know about. You know why? Because you are going to end up saying wrong things about that person. I have been a writer for one year. May be this would convince you not to say whatever comes in your mouth!

I can't decide if you three are hilarious or just pathetic. You deserve everything you get (and don't get) in this business, though.
