hi has anyone written for Academia Research?

Jennifer, it's clear that you have been outclassed and proven to be a fraud, so now you're engaging in the same, false accusations as the equally deceptive essay site owners in Ukraine and Pakistan. You have no alternative, since your initial arguments are shot.

hello:

A-R is becoming a major mystery to me. It all started off with me having to leave my full time job and A-R became a full time occupation. They even made me a "premium writer"

I got my payments on time so far. But i am beginning to realize that they use tons of flimsy excuses not to pay and are holding my payments. I am actually shocked to learn that they are a Ukranian company. Why cant A-R be honest? They have louse phone numbers and people have become very rude. Theres this chap called David - i guess he is the boss man never even cares to respond.

They are becoming very very mean. I am not sure how to act against them. Can we all do something about this A-R? there seems to be so many of us here?

I have made good money, but now they are really holding good amount of my money on some flimsy grounds. What is the best option available to us? They have given me their official address somewhere in Miami, why are they being dis-honest? i am beginning to beleive that they are into whole time cheating.

That's nonsense. I have already posted their real address in Ukraine.

I know a person writing for AR. He is asked to take time extension from the customer. When he takes it and writes a better essay and despite the customer acknowledging that the essay was excellent, AR deducts more than half of the measly payment that they make to writers. He will be leaving soon. Be careful with these companies. My classmate received a paper from them and the quality was unbeleivably low.

Of course,a writer is bound to obey the terms and conditions laid down by a company.During the course of the employment,if there is any case of late submission and plagiriasm ,the company would levy a nominal amount of fine like $4,$7 etc.That is acceptable.But when they want to terminate the service of a particular writer, they normally reduct a huge amount of fine like $ 32,$ 96 etc so that the company can realize the entire pending earnings of the grieved writer.I think,there is no company has included such penalty clause regd. the realization of the entire earning in the form of fine just before sending out the writer .

Jennifer is huge fraud herself and has been proved to be so by ex-writer!

I ask you again Jennifer.

If your company makes a ton of money every year why can't you afford a decent email system or a writer's panel?

And NO me and WB are NOT the same people.Maybe you are having a "dumb blond" moment as you cannot decipher the difference in the writings of three different people.
It is about time they fired you! You are BAD news for the PR dept. of UK essays.HAHAHA!

I can stand by Academia. I have been writing for them since early 2006 and have never faced any major problems. There were delays in payment a couple of times, but nothing else...

p.s- I don't write for them anymore...

Academia-Research.com (MasterPapers.com, EssayCapital.com, CustomEssays.co.uk, MA-Dissertations.com, etc.) is a fraudulent site from Ukraine.

This is a verifiable fact.

Sorry, I cannot agree with you. During the initial days of my writing career, I started writing for them. First of all, their payment is so very low. Just $4 per page. This means £2 for us in UK. Imagine producing research work for that. They cheat, completed orders disappear from your page, they make you beg for even that measly payment. I had to leave in a great hurry and lost the last salary. They are a bunch of cheats.

Academia Research ,like EssayWriters.net is a fraud....watch out.WB has done some valuable research here in one of these forums and it shows that they don't even have a proper office.

Serene,

$ 4 is their minimum pay. It even goes to $ 22 sometimes, but average remains close to $ 7-8. They charge $9 to high school students. Imagine they paying $ 7 for that job to us... They will come on the road.

Order disappearing from the panel had happened to me once, but that was due to miscommunication between Academia staff. There were two minds at work, one gave me the order and just as I was about to load it, the other guy took it off from my panel, but I did not take it too seriously though USD 48 is quite big. It was enough for me that it was not intentional.

But again, may be your experience was different from mine.

Yes, Orator, very different. Not that I would like to discredit them. I sincerely feel that they pay very less, try to cheat etc. But they are any day better than ProjectIclass like outfits.

Never seen $22. When I say $4, that is for Masters dissertation and high school students do not write that. That is the current pay.
Once or twice, I received mails from revision clients complaining that they had paid $1600 for a particular dissertation and did not get a good paper; hence, the revision. I was getting $200 for writing it! Cannot agree with you.

Hi,

I have recently begun to write for Academia-Research. 10th was my first time to receive a payment. And as many of you may have guessed by now, there is absolutely no trace of the payment. Although they claim to have issued it - to make matters convincing they even have some sort of a reference no. and a few odd details on the "My Payments" page - Alas! we can see through all that.

I just wanted to know if there is anyway, we can get this site to stop operating. Rather than write and give vent to our frustration, why not come together via personal emails and sue them. We stand a chance to atleast make some money that way :)

Disgruntled Writer.

After going through the discussion I would just like to say that AR is probably the biggest fraud around, the company places an order in the current orders of the writer and takes it off from the current orders after 3-4 hours. Their service is pathetic. So if anyone is thinking about joining AR think at least a million times before jumping the gun.....

@ cerebrella

Dear cerebralla, to stop them you got to go to Ukraine with convincing enough proofs with you.

In continuation of the above, this writer who has been asking for payment before Christmas, had done an order of 15,000 words for $300. The client liked the work; but wanted her to place the chapter numbers and headings. When she uploaded the file again after attending to all the requirements, client did not seem to be in a hurry. The writer feels that the client has taken his essay and gone; but the Admn, to cheat the writer was posting comments in the name of the client, like "I cannot see the essay", "I cannot open it" and even claimed that the pasted essay could not be read!

Now the order has disappreared from the COMPLETED LIST and she is fined $150. This means, after writing an excellent essay of 15,300 words, she has lost $450! Isn't that great?

She has been doing orders 255829 and 254922. She has given almost half of these 2 huge dissertations and has done research work for the rest. If these clients want to contact her, they can write to me at serene2@hotmail.co.uk and I will give her the mails.

I hope that students and writers alike will shun this company in future.

My friend will be grateful for any details about selling the essays online. If any members here are aware of them, she will be grateful to know.

I have written for Academia-Research and have had a few rough spots with them in the past but they have been paying correctly and almost according to schedule in recent months. I don't agree with some of the posts made here as they do not jibe with my own experience.

What I can say is that if customers complain about your work, or they AR people themselves don't like your work because of frequent grammatical, syntax, and other errors, they can make life difficult for you. I had one experience when a customer got negative feedback from her professor and who sent back the paper for revision by somebody else (it didn't find its way to my panel), and I would not be able to get any replies to my queries with the ADMIN people. Fortunately, nobody picked up the paper for revision. It turned out that the professor had made a mistake and remembered the wrong paper when first talking to her. Once this was rectified, the paper was returned to my completed works panel and I was subsequently given a premium status. The lack/absence of transparency by both customer and ADMIN almost did me in.

I don't like to generalize. I can only make a guess as to why some writers have had some bad experience with AR. It is this: If ADMIN does not like your work, it will communicate that displeasure by making it difficult for you to collect, by imposing substantial fines on minor faults or delays. You take the hint and just leave.

I don't care about nationality or whatever of the owners of AR. A number of writers can bear out that they have generally had good experiences with AR.

I fully agree with Verdepaz, Though Academia owes me USD 500, which I have not received from them todate and it has been 3 months I have not been writing for them, but I would still say they are genuine. My case was a misunderstanding, but, they pay what they promise.

I guess their origination should neither matter to customers nor the writers. As long as the customers are getting what they are paying for it should not matter.

Cheers...

Even my experiance says they are genuine. But that is also their part of the game. They wait before they can eat you up fully. All of their accusation falls on your head, when you have a decent sum to be paid.
In my opinion origination of the company does matter, if they have nothing to hide or no intention of any foul play, why should somebody use such dubious things.

Verdepaz and orator, you are falling for it just like all of their past and future suckers. Don't expect ANY sympathy when you become their next victims.

We don't argue against them without reason. They are filth.

WB, those who expect sympathy get their money back or they just have to content with your sympathy???

You probably did not read my post stating that they owe me USD 500 for the last 3 months, which has not been paid todate.

Good day.

You are entitled to your own lay opinions. But you see, the nationality of corporations and LLCs are not determined by the nationality of the individual incorporators/members. They are determined by law.

Now, as determined by law and reflected in their appropriate incorporation/registration before the proper state or federal government body, these entities still need to comply with legal requirements regularly while their respective corporations or LLCs are in existence.

So, I believe that you are both not privy to the compliance and therefore you cannot accurately and with certainty, conclude that it is genuine and in faithful compliance with the law.

Your conclusions are merely based on your limited experiences with the entity (This is a statement of fact and not intended to belittle your personal conclusions). If both of you feel that your rights are not injured in any way, then we are all happy for you. But it does not mean that others' rights are not violated.

You cannot DENY the other group consisting of those writers like you and who were deprived of what lawfully they should receive, as NON EXISTENT.



IT DOES MATTER, sorry to oppose you on that. We live in a society of laws. Laws exist to put order in the society and afford a safeguard to protect the general public against abuse. It affords a means to seek redress for those rights which were injured. It encourages businesses to flourish and prosper based on guidelines which the law sets forth for compliance.

You see, we do not live in an ideal society where, as you said "as long as writers are paid and customers get what they paid for" BECAUSE IT NEVER HAPPENED/IS NEVER HAPPENING THAT WAY.

So if you want to deny the existence of non-payment of fees to writers and low quality of products from certain essay writing websites--then, it is your prerogative to live your writing career in a LIE.

Voir_dire, your posts make too much sense and contain far too many facts. Prepare to be attacked by the propagandists and criminal morons who frequent this forum.

@WB

Thank you.
In general, I made the "offence" (outside of this forum) already so their attacks would be most likely a "defence." I do not intend to "fight" in this arena.
My posts containing facts are based on evidence and the provisions of pertinent laws which anyone can readily check and confirm with due diligence.
Documentary evidence including the video you posted (also at youtube) as well as a few of the documentary evidence I posted can only be DISPUTED by the same degree of credible evidence and not by mere personal assertions of individuals.
BUT NO ONE was able to controvert them despite the lapse of considerable time.
Any intelligent member here or any reader of the posts for that matter, would just simply take out personal attacks and focus on the amount and nature of evidence posted and easily they can be CONVINCED of the truth and credibility of the evidence.
Again, my gratitude for your concern. I have been "scared all my life" and attacked a number of times, but based on my experience--Truth always prevailed.

As what I have posted in another thread, you have been attacked by these unscrupulous people as one allegedly affiliated with a U.S. essay writing website.
My answer to that is: So what? Assuming, that is so--you are merely "leveling the playing field" because the truth is, some of the other essay writing websites are engaging in an alleged "unfair competiton."
They take in ESL writers whether they be qualified or unqualified. They rake in profit by selling their services at a very low price. They do not pay their ESL writers (qualified or not). And when they leave, they take in more ESLs.There is an apparent lack of regulation of standards and an apparent lack of a machinery for these ESL writers to collect the fees which they were unlawfully deprived. All together, with these alleged fraudulent websites engaging in this practice, consistently and regularly--they destroy the name of the industry. They fool the American, Australian and UK public/consumers who avail of the services as to the source of the product or service including the competency of their writers. Now, it seems that the labels of "scams, low and poor quality, deceptive, lies" are attached to the reputation of the essay writing industry.
If I were the owner of a legitimately organised, created and incorporated/registered and legitimately managed and operated company/LLC primarily devoted to essay writing--I would be disgusted! Of course, there may be flaws and violations committed by these legitimate companies and LLCs BUT it is not a reason for these fraudulent websites to engage in unfair competion and false advertising. Allow the proper authorities and the courts punish the legitimate companies and allow the market forces to freely shape the industry.
It is a basic economic principle that is why unfair competition and false advertising are PROHIBITED BY LAWS. Therefore, anyone who would desire to raise the issue of RACISM, please rethink your arguments. I am not against ESL writers writing for legitimate essay writing companies because I know with an environment of fair competition, the industry would in no time, rid and purge itself of the unqualified ESL writers.

Voir, Do you or for that matter anybody else has any data on how many customers who are serviced by your legitimate companies go unsatisfied vis a vis the customers who go unsatisfied by the the so called inferior companies?

All the above facts take a major assumption based on this hypothesis. Don't they? I do not deny the existence of cases when someone expected a professionally written paper by a native ameican, but ended up receiving an inferior paper. But, we need to be subjective and not generalize all the ESL companies in the same league.

For example, India and Pakistan both are ESL countries and are regarded to belong to the same (inferior) league by most of the Brits,Americans and Europeans, but the EVIDENCE suggests that there is a major difference between the grasp of language of the people of both the countries and also the kind of talent available, ofcourse India has a much larger pool to its advantage. Nonetheless, it will be unfair to compare and generalize just as you can not compare an ESL writer no matter how much ever qualified he is in English language with a native Brit or an American who cares to follow proper grammar and punctuation because he will always have the upper hand.

I would suggest that you read my post again. You missed the point. First, allow me to correct your misimpression--I am not the owner of the legitimate companies or company so your use of the possessive pronoun "your" is misplaced. Second, do you not think that your question is based on a premise that is a fallacy of logic?
You are asking me to compare two values which are totally different, a fallacy. And if I may say, was not within the meaning of what I have posted, remotely or otherwise. You are asking me to compare the number of "customers who are serviced by your legitimate companies go unsatisfied vis a vis the customers who go unsatisfied by the the so called inferior companies"--Two values: legitimate companies and inferior companies. To the first group, legitimacy is determined by law. To the second group, inferiority is determined by accepted performance-based determinants.
One is legitmacy and the other is performance. There is no connection between both values. The existence of one value does not assure the existence of the other.


Suit yourself. The content of my post referred to the free interplay of market forces in an environment of fair competition.



Are we not engaging in another fallacy of logic? I was not generalising, you are.
I was referring to legitimate companies who would desire to hire ESL writers in a free market. I did not refer to hiring the ESLs over the EFLs. Now if you feel that ALL (you made the generalisation) EFLs are superior in the English language and if you own an essay writing website or company, you are totally at liberty to hire them over the ESLs. I have no qualms about it.

So if you would please excuse me, I have quite a number of things that beg my attention. I would rather not engage in a debate of mere generalised opinions between EFLs over ESLs anent the English language. You are entitled to your opinion. But, try to comprehend the thrust of my earlier post first.

Finally, if I may express my opinion: I think the issue is NOT one of EFLs vs. ESLs. The issue is one of deception--when a few websites claim to only hire ALL EFLs with Masters and PhDs but which in truth is NOT. Stated otherwise, I have no problem about legitimate companies hiring ESLs provided they do not mislead the public by claiming that ALL THEIR WRITERS ARE EFLs WITH MAs and PhDs. Therefore even without saying, I have gargantuan problems with illegitimate entities that hire ESLs (and exploit them by not paying their fees) and would mislead the public by claiming that ALL THEIR WRITERS ARE EFLs WITH MAs and PhDs.

Let us not try to muddle my post with issues not germane with my premise. Let us also not to try to divide the alleged victimised writers between EFLs and ESLs. I am very much aware of divide et impera of Machiavelli.

You just talked about me not reading your post properly. Did I say ALL EFLs are superior in English? Read it again.

Do we not have performance issues with the TOP companies? Can we not compare the two types (The legitimate comapanies and the inferior ones?) They belong to the same industry. Most importantly, will it be fair enough to compare and tag mark just these two kinds? What about the companies that are far ahead in quality than the likes of Essay relief or Researchwriting which pays as less as $ 2.5 a page. What kind of talent will work for that kind of money?

There IS a third type that is pretty good and operates within the jurisdiction of fair competition.

I agree with the disclosures part. There should be proper disclosures by the writing companies stating whether the writers are all EFLs or all ESLs or a mixture of both.

I have written for them - for the past 2-3 months - so far - no big problems. One day late with payment but they fixed it fast with apologies. I am concerned though that no one working there seems to speak EFL - it's difficult sometimes to understand them; and to get them to understand when you are explaining a problem, for example, I asked the admin to contact the customer and pass a draft along. The admin yelled at me for not staying in contact with the customer - telling me that the customer was concerned. I was like...um...that was me...the writer asking for contact from the customer? The next admin answered and apologized for the mistake - but I see this all type of misunderstanding all the time. Makes me nervous. I'd like to write for a company I can feel confidence in - any suggestions out there?

Wait for sometime to see their true colours.

You are LUCKY to have had only those problems.

Read this forum carefully. According to ample evidence and testimony in this forum and across the Internet, the longer a writer stays and the higher his/her balance, the more likely that Academia-Research.com (MasterPapers.com, EssayCapital.com, etc.) in Ukraine will begin siphoning the writer's money after coming up with fake penalties due to "customer complaints" and "plagiarism." This forum is filled with such complaints from dozens of victimized writers.

I totally agree. It was my great fortune that one such writer living in the same university accommodation building with me, guided me to become a member here. I was on the verge of getting cheated by another 3 major deceiving companies when she asked me to read through this forum. By then I had already lost money to Academia despite client appreciation. I have seen writers (students) writing for them, planning to pay rent, meeting living expenses for months, only to be ruthlessly deprived of their months' earnings. I have seen students being put out of accommodation. I agree with you that I am one of the luckiest writers.

I've already scaled back on the writing - simply because of their lack of professionalism. I realize most clients are students that don't care about grammatical errors and communication misunderstandings. I would like to find a site that I can trust. I would also like to find one that pays by the job - not every 6th Monday for the previous month or minimum balances required. But in all fairness...I've made about 450.00 - so far. It was good for my kid's Christmas! I'll keep writing for them until they stop paying me or until I find someone more reliable - or who knows...maybe I'll start my own! :-)) (Just need to earn a little start up money first!)

I truly understand what you have just related to this forum. This is the same sentiment of the other writers. The writers write for these entities in the hope of augmenting their income. There is nothing revolting about one's desire to will the best for his own or his family's life.

It is this very intent that some of these entities exploit and make 'use' of. I can only hope the best for you, that is for you to receive everything, in full and without any unjustifiable delay that which you have worked so hard for.

Should you feel later on that your rights have been trampled on, you are most welcome here to express your disgust and anger.

What others here seek is to lessen the risks, if not eradicate altogether the risks that ALL writers would have to face everyday in their writing careers with these entities.

Personally (and I am sure this goes with the others too), I/we am/are not here to condemn the writers who had become victims--they have suffered enough of having to face the-everyday-fear of not receiving their fees at all or with undue delay based on greed but sugar-coated with some flimsy excuse to withhold payment. I/we am/are not here to laugh at those writers who had become victims after refusing to heed our advice and warnings because I/we understand that part of human nature--that some people would rather experience things for themselves in order to believe.
I/we am/are here to be happy for those who may have justly received their fees and we can only hope that they would not suffer the same plight as most of the other writers here.
I/we am/are here in the fervent hope of enkindling and awakening that part of human nature--of compassion for others and of a universally accepted principle-- that there are times and instances when WE cannot just live for ourselves alone because to a certain extent, we need to look out for each other so that the industry where we seek to find that 'extra' for ourselves and our families can maintain and preserve its integrity. Towards this end and as a consequence thereof, we can assure ourselves that there would be a constant flow and payment of the fees, we have lawfully and justly earned.

Thanks, I plan to post back here - or start a new thread - I am definitely uncomfortable or I wouldn't have come here searching for information in the first place.

I have already added my two cents to another thread on Academicexperts.us - they are just awful!!!

I guess for me - the biggest clue that the sites are questionable - they have such atrocious copy that you just know...that something is not right. I try not to "judge a book by it's cover" but when the business advertised is *writing*...
