New UK Law comes into place on 28th May

Hi All,

Not sure if any of you have seen this yet:

Sony, Wal-Mart, McDonalds and others could soon find themselves subject to criminal prosecution under new legislation to be enacted in the UK. The "Consumer Protection from Unfair Trading Regulations 2008" comes in to force May 28th and will cause some corporations to rethink their marketing techniques. Judith Lewis explains more.

This will certainly curtail the dubious 'Single Post' recommendations...

Discuss...

It's a UK law. Those that are not UK citizens or companies not located in the UK probably won't care. If Sony, Walmart, McDonalds have stores or offices in the UK, they would have to follow those rules.

Hey Corvus,

Surely it's only a matter of time before the law is taken on by more countries?

Why are you trying to obscure "Ukraine"?

I'm sure that the Ukrainians will ignore any new, UK law, considering that they ignore virtually every current law in the US.

I don't see why it would affect Ukraine because in this case "UK" stands for United Kingdom. Ukraine is a whole different country.

Ok people this was a joke hence the quotes.

I tried implying ukessays should be called ukraineessays. Thought it ironic seeing as PeterParker apparently works for ukessays.

As the saying goes, if you have to explain your joke... it isn't funny.

Hey Solid,

I do work for UKEssays, and I've always been very open about that (check back through my older posts!) and I thought the saying was 'A joke is only funny if more than one person laughs'?

And the suggestion that UKEssays.com operates from the Ukraine is ridiculous, perhaps the only funny joke in your posts... lol!

I wouldn't have thought that the new legislation will effect any country other than the UK, but I'm pretty sure that other countries will take this law on in time.

Best,
PP

Ok but i'm pretty sure there's some ukessays workers pretending to be customers posting on this site. So surely it will cause you guys some trouble, no?

Hey Solid,

We currently have two accounts, this one and "EssayBay". These are the only current accounts used on this site from anyone involved with the company (which covers any company associated with Academic Answers Ltd). I have been with the company for over 6 months and I know that if anyone posed as a customer, it would be very obvious.

We often find competitors using this site to criticise our service, but as I'm sure you've noticed, they usually only have one or two posts to their name and most people realise their real motives for posting.

Best,
PP

EssayBay = Joke.
Sorry but that's fact.
You have individual writers who claim they specialise in all Math, English, Sciences, Law, Philosophy, Politics, Economics, etc.
Surely, if Sir Littlewood really cares about customers rather than the easy-earned dollar, EssayBay should take the time to ensure ALL writers are verified before they are allowed to bid.

If Barclay were to rightfully do so, EssayBay would have no choice but to openly turn away the vast majority of customers who submit math, science, law, etc. orders due to a lack of writers who are TRULY qualified to complete such orders.

SS WB,

This is why the verification process is in place. If a buyer is looking to guarantee the standard of writer they want, then they should look for a verified writer. Equally, if a writer wants to compete for the quality briefs, they must prove that they're able to write at that standard.

Suggesting that we verify every writer would simply turn EssayBay into another essay company. EssayBay was established to act as a conduit to allow customers to choose their own writer, surrendering that aspect of control.

We know that EssayBay has had some difficulties so far, but we are working on the problems and I'm sure you will have noticed (if you use the site) that there have been changes made after recommendations from this forum! If you have suggestions (either writers or customers) then please feel free to get in touch and we will always take on board the suggestions.

Best,
PP

I have no interest in helping your company.

You need to STOP using this forum to promote your company. You do enough of that by going out of your way to contact newspapers to ask them to write stories on you.

WB,

If you'd care to glance to the title of this post, you'll see that I began a conversation about the custom essay industry and the use of forums, not a post about the company that I work for. It was you and SS who turned this into a conversation about the company that I work for, I simply responded.

Best,
PP
