I used ACADEMICWRITINGHELP.COM to help me get started on an APA formatted paper I had no idea how to write. I gave them specific instructions about required munumber of in-text citations and refernces from the internet and published material. THE TPAPER TURNED OUT TO BE TOTALLY PLAGERIZED...A BAD CUT-AND-PASTE JOB FROM wIKIPEDIA. Theu provided a list of real sources, but the sources had nothing to do with what was written. IF YOU ARE GOING TO PULL THIS ****, AT LEAST WARN CUSTOMERS SO THEY CAN EDIT THE PAPERAND MAYBE MAKE SOMETHING OUT OF IT. i HANDED IT IN, FLUNKED THE PAPER, FLUNKED THE COURSE, AND GOT THROWN OUT OF SCHOOL! Thanks academicwritinghelp.com

Academicwritinghelp.com is a fraudulent, ripoff site from Karachi, Pakistan. It is owned by the same company that got axactly what it deserved in US Federal Court.

my experience with the website was VERY different. I had to hand in a paper on the Latin script n its evolution but I was not able to find any gud sources, n I wasnt able to formulate a good argument to make the paper interesting. I fwded complete instructions to the site (the email my prof sent me) n they got back to me in 8 hrs or so with a PROPER argument and complete references... I dint check out all the refs, but it was cuz I was convinced they had done a good job. There were only a couple of grammatical errors n typos which required just ONE FINAL edit from me, but otherwise I thought it was a good job.
btw, Wmel, I can imagine the kind of instructions u mustve sent to the website given that u cant even spell 'plagiarism', lol. :P
One useful tip I can give from my experience would be to give GOOD instructions in order to get what u want. n remember, writing and editing r two SEPARATE n DISTINCT job roles, n the amount of time it takes should be accounted for...

Well, I see that I am not the only person who has been screwed by them. I am a graduate student, and I have a teacher that is known for being REALLY tough... I passed a paper into her a few weeks ago and apparently it was so bad that she actually returned it to me to do-over. I thought that I had done a good job, so, scared as I was, I went to academicwritinghelp.com. I gave them a specific list of points to cover, specific references to use and the grading rubric... I just received my paper, It did not cover ANY of what was required... It was suppose to be in APA, and it wasn't... And, it did not actually cover the paper in the point of view of my profession (nursing.) All I can say is I am let down. Normally I would not use a company life this, but I didnt want to fail... Looks like I am going to now, I am so upset. I went to google and cut and pasted the name of a source that I had not heard of, it pulled up a site, it was the first one... So, I clicked, and there was my paper, the paper that is plagiarism free was used as a sample paper on another website. I called and I was given the excuse that this is the first time ever- lalalalala- I just wanted my money back. I didn't really want my money back, I didn't want anything but to pass this class, I could actually cry, I am SO upset. to anyone who is pondering using academicwritinghelp.com-- DONT, RUN DONT WALK, you would be better off taking something out of an old book (Im not advocating that) I just know that is something they do. Can you believe it, word for word!

All they do is copy-and-paste from published documents. They don't even have "writers." You should have researched the site before ordering.
