This is once again about Academia research:
A close friend of mine, who has been working there is the last one to be cheated out of nearly $500. I will post the complete details after getting it from her.
My friend, writer number 22957 was writing orders 255829 and 254922. She is unable to write these huge orders now, as there is no guarantee that she will get paid for the work. She has written half of each order and has sent to the customers. She has already done the research for the remaining dissertation. If these clients read this post, and need any help from her, you can contact me at serene2@hotmail.co.uk and I will give your message to her. She is not a member here and cannot provide her personal email.
I will give more details and I hope that this would be another eye-opener for any student or writer who has planned to use Academia.[b][/b]

Students (customers) don't use Academia-Research.com (or its sister site from the same outfit in Ukraine, VdWriters.com). Customers use the sites for which Academia-Research.com provides essays:
CustomEssays.co.uk EssayCapital.com GrandResume.com MA-Dissertartions.com MA-Dissertations.com ResearchEdge.net MasterPapers.com ResumecvService.com SuperiorContent.com
It's a much better use of your time to focus on their customer-oriented sites.

If there are writers in this forum who work for ACADEMIA RESEARCH, please be careful and come out NOW. They act swiftly. My friend was assured this morning that her payment will be sent on 23rd and after two hours, the above story happened. The writers can't do a thing in retaliation.
I heard that they have only very small 10 orders on hand and that means, they will cheating all the writers.
Please students, look for better companies.

@ Serene Hold on...are you saying they fired her before she completed her work?
She can serve them a notice and in the absence of a response publish these essays here.AR is a proven fraud.Don't you remember how they treated Hala?She was such an amazing writer.

MAK: they fired her before she completed her work? She completed an essay of 15,000 words (I have pasted it on another thread) for which they were supposed to pay her $300 and the client has accepted it. Simply wanted her to put the chapter numbers, which she did. She feels that the client has taken it and gone and the Admn, without giving any reason, gave her a fine notice of $150, removed the essay from COMPLETED ORDERS. That means, she has lost $300 and has to pay a fine of $150 and essay was gone. No, they did not fire her. They had given another two essays of around 12000 words each. She simply left. Mak, there is no point in trying to retaliate. They are so thick-skinned and they are doing it every day. This particular friend of mine has been in financial difficulties trying hard to collect money for the fees. She has lost nearly 22000 wors as she has already given half essays for the other two and another completely finished essay. It is all so very sad.

MAK: Don't you remember how they treated Hala? I was treated shabbily by them long ago. I was unaware that this friend had been writing for Academia. If I had known, I could have advised her otherwise. Academia and Project1st class offer jobs immediately and the new writers fall for it, just like how I did!

The owner of Academia research is Dmitrij Popov - the one who owns essay-911.com. The vast majority of writers are Ukrainian and Russian. They always pay in time, but there are huge fines, poor treatment and payment rate is not more than 4 dollars per page

really? And what should I do to prove I am right? I can scan and send information which I get from them after i registered. Poor you, if you do not note obvious things. I worked for them for more than 2 years, thus when i tried to find other writing services, due to the awful attitude, thus I found this website and tried to register. Then I got a letter from them

Academia-Research is owned by Alexei Vitchenko. One of his fake names is Alex Wesson. His partner in crime is "Victoria Gatehouse."
You are confused as Popov has no stake in AR.

Helo Guys, I am a writer at academia-research.com. I don't know why you all are not satisfied with academia. I have been working there. Thanks God, I did not visit this forum before registering or I had left such an oppurtunity. Although my first income was late. I had almost stopped working on my projects. But I got it just after two days with an apology. Moreover, my last payment was made to me two days before the specified date. It is indeed difficult working there but the support team is so nice and polite. Everything is very fine. I am working happily. Although they have strict measures, they use to check completed projects, yet their CPP is very high. Most of the freelance sites offer costs of 1-5 dollars per article. But, academia indeed satisfies its writers with indeed high payments. My first month's income was over 200 $. And I worked only on about 10 projects of two or three pages each. I am glad working there. Moreover, they have now reformed their fines policy. They are very helpful. The most important thing I liked is that the projects are granted, not by the customers, but by the academia itself, on strict merit basis. You don't need to worry about cost and time. All is set by the academia. It is sure for everyone to get a project there(if one is abled). I have tried other sites like elance, freelancer.com and I did not get even a single project there. My advice is that you should not leave a good career at academia, only if you are a good writer. If you are poor, you will indeed face fines and strictness. This post was made by me, on my behalf. I am not representing the academia. I wanted to share general information. Hope you all are leaded well. Thank you.

shaz364: I don't know why you all are not satisfied with academia. I have been working there. Asked and answered.
people are dissatisfied because they hire people like you for writers. Your English isn't bad for a foreign speaker, but it still has a lot of issues. The company also outright scams a lot of its customers and writers, according to other posters here.
shaz364: My advice is that you should not leave a good career at academia, only if you are a good writer. The fact that you think you're a good writer (and probably are one of the better ones at the company) is a major part of the problem.

shaz364: But, what about talking about the topic I did talk about the topic. You asked why customers and writers were dissatisfied with the company. The answer is because they hire and promote ****** writers like you. Case closed.

I worked with them about a year ago. I am still waiting for my payment. Maybe they have changed since then, but beware just in case.

I have seen lot of orders marked as 'Not a Native Speaker' on the site. this is because majority of the customers are 'Foreign Students' right?
