Asked them for a quote yesterday $400 for a full paper and $350 for an annotated fact sheet and $300 for an essay plan. Not much I thought for a 5000 word project.
Managed to find some pride and belief in myself, so I rejected their offer and got my finger out.
Today they emailed me saying that the writer would do the whole project for me for only $250.

If it was 1995, I would probably stay on their site one minute. 13 years later it's not worth to even look at this. A "company" using a free email account and free shared hosting account on a subdomain? Where are their contact details other than a free email account?
It was probably created and run by a freelance writer, that's all.

MaxJustMax: writer would do the whole project for me for only $250.
That is an excellent opportunity for you. Where I work, bargaining is never done. Are you sure that they are prepared to do 5000 words for a mere $250?

Yeah, thats what it said in the email. Not really an excellent oppertunity though, as how can anyone expect to take such an offer seriously. For one thing an essay plan for $300 is a bit rich as it would probably take up maybe a whole 2-3 pages. Seeing as its a mathematical peice as well for all I know I could be giving it to someone who couldn't count the number of fingers they had on each hand. So no I wont be taking them up on the offer.
Paying some of these companies money to either do research or write for you is a bit like throwing $500 on a horse with one leg and hoping that all the other horses have none.

I browse this forum a lot, but never have created a username. I feel I can add some insight here.
Yeah, essaysoncall.com in the past has either given me really expensive quotes for easy work or really cheap quotes for hard work. It seems their managment cant find a balance.
From what I understand afer applying with essaysoncall.com is that they are a bay area based company and most of their writers are recent graduates of San Francisco State, berkeley, and stanford. I got turned down because I only have a bachelors degree.
I agree with MaxJustMax having someone to do your work is like "throwing $500 on a horse with one leg and hoping that allt he other horses have none."
phd disertation essaysoncall and custompapers are the only ones that deliver for me consistently. Those are the only ones I'll reccomend.

You know, even I get tired of repeating the same message.
I think it's pretty clear that NOBODY reads the TOS when signing up.
I hope that the moderator will add a "sticky" message at the top of the main forum page clearly stating that recommendations, site promotion, job offers, and job requests are not allowed. ;)

Ilit,
Let it go. It's the risk you take in this business. Try custom papers, if you get a good writer you're golden. Try Jessica from custompapers.com.

Ilit, you can complain through paypal. You have to do it within a short period of time, like a month from the purchase, so initiating the complaint through paypal asap is important. If they don't answer Paypal, then you'll be automatically refunded after a short period of time.

You can dispute it on Paypal, you ususally don't get the money though in my personal experience. You've got to be careful of which companies you choose. Custompapers.com, and phd dissertation are the only ones that have done me will in my experience.

just got my paper back from custompapers.com and they did an awesome job. My assigned writer did it in 1 day too. I didnt go with them first because they were 10 bucks more expensive :), guess I learned my lesson.
