I would just like to tell you about my experience with Fast Essays who I will never use again. They have lied to me dozens of times over the past week.
It all started before I even ordered. I sent them an email asking if they had anyone available to write my essay. They replied that they did so I ordered thinking that they would have it in time. The deadline was Tuesday.
I waited in all day. I hardly left my computer from 6am until midnight but it never came for 2 days running. This was despite repeatedly contacting the help desk who were less than helpful to say the least. They either ignored me or told me the writer would upload it soon. He never did. I was then told on Tuesday night that he was having trouble uploading the file to the site. I was told he wouldn't stop until he had uploaded it. That turned out to be rubbish.
Yesterday I was told that he had suffered a powercut and at 8am he was going to his nearest internet cafe. I don't think he ever arrived. Despite private messaging me 12 hours later he had still not uploaded the essay. I am not even sure there was an essay to upload.
I went asleep quite angry and hoping that I would have the essay by the time I awoke. Nothing was there and about 10 mins ago an admin private messages me asking for an extension, even though the paper has already had an extra 2 days (possibly 3) and I am due to meet my lecturer in about an hour.
I will never trust fast essays again. As far as I am concerned they are a bunch of scammers who had no intention of ever writing my essay.

A tough experience for a student. Difficult to understand some of the essay writers and companies.

I thought by using a recognised operator like UK essays might help but I have been treated in a similar way. In fact the only thing they did get right was to get a document over to me on time. I think they think that is all they have to do.
The document was of no use and now I am left trying to produce work with considerably less time available. I also have the massive distraction of my ongoing fight with them in trying to recapture funds.
I do not think this industry can continue. The companies are either scams or are just plain rotten. There is no appreciation of who the customer is and how important it is that money is spent in this industry for the sake of all; the writers and the students who at times desperately need GOOD help.
This place seems like a good place to begin a much needed community effort to raise the standards of this industry. I am certain there are honest writers out there who don't think all the students they write for are scumbags and that they genuinely want to help students and create bespoke items of work no matter what. The battles you find yourself in when becoming a customer in this industry is awful and should make the industry as a whole unsustainable in its current form.
I have a dream :(

Why did you leave your essay to the last minute? I read this over and over again how time becomes critical yet it is clearly the fault of the student for failing to get organized and do the work. What are you students doing? Drinking, clubbing, Facebook? Why use a service in the first place when the Internet has all the information you need at your fingertips and plenty of free material out there to model off of. If you do use a service (and as a working writer that is fine by me) then don't go by lowest price and use common sense to sort the conmen from the genuine providers. Use Odesk or Elance or a site you can verify has a real address in the UK, USA or where ever.

Perry Gamsby: real address
There are a number of things that students can do to save themselves from being scammed. Such information stays within the digital boundaries of this very forum. What is ironical is that rarely does anyone bother to do the basic research.

You are clearly not a native English speaker, and really shouldn't be writing for companies in these countries without informing your customers of this fact.

In your two weeks on this forum, you have complained about several companies with the same basic story. This makes it very difficult to believe you, and even more difficult to care.
