Service Overview
UKEssays is a fairly old writing service created in the UK
in 2003. The website is owned by All Answers Ltd and is
subject to UK law. Despite the slightly outdated and
archaic design, the company managed to hold out for a long
time and is still competing with other writing services.
Let's start this UKEssays.com review, and I will tell you
about all the pitfalls.
Quality of Services
I originally wanted to order a research paper but was
surprised by the local prices. This is why I decided to
choose a 2-page college essay on Education. I asked the
writer to describe the impact of modern gadgets and the
Internet on the speed of acquiring knowledge and the
general level of education of students. Unfortunately, I
had to choose a 14-day deadline, since the prices were too
high. Eventually, I paid $125 for my paper.
Now let's discuss the results of the writer's work. When I
started writing this UKEssays review, I thought that the
professionalism of local experts could justify high
prices. But, unfortunately, I got a pretty mediocre paper
with 6 typos, poor grammar, and 12 spelling errors worth
D, but not the C as I indicated. In addition, the writer
clearly did not understand the relationship between the
Internet and gadgets. Is it so hard to guess that laptops,
smartphones, and tablets give modern students more
opportunities to search for information?
Prices and Deadlines
Is UKEssays.com legit? It is certainly a legit company,
but I am concerned about another question. Why did these
guys decide that their services are so expensive? The
minimum price per page is $108! Did these guys edit
Shakespeare's sonnets? Or did they write a speech for
Queen Elizabeth? I have no answers to these questions. As
I said earlier, My paper cost me $125.
If I wanted to receive it in 4 hours, I would have to pay
$523. Thanks, but I'd rather write my paper myself! It
should be noted that the site does not display the types
of currencies correctly. Only pounds are available in the
deadline selection menu, while the ordering page displays
dollars. This is one of the problems I found out about
while reading the UKEssays Reddit reviews.
Guarantees
These guys hired good lawyers, so you might not understand
a single word when you visit the Terms & Conditions page.
The company claims that it is ready to pay 5,000 pounds to
anyone who receives non-original papers. However, I read
all the conditions for order compensation and did not find
a real mechanism for receiving this money.
In addition, you have nine days to contact support agents
if the quality of the paper does not suit you. I am very
angry because the company does not describe my guarantees
in detail. Support agents can answer me whatever they
want, referring to internal instructions or company
policy. Is UKEssays.com safe? I'm not sure about that.
Online Reputation
Here's another aspect that came as a real shock to me.
Most UKEssays.com reviews are quite positive. This is
surprising since I received a very bad paper. However,
some people still describe the problems I encountered. It
seems to me that a lot of positive feedback is part of the
marketing plan. However, I do not have clear evidence, so
I will not insist on this. Is UKEssays reliable? It seems
to me that you can conclude on your own.
Customer Support
Here is another aspect that will anger students around the
world. These guys have not integrated live chat into their
site. If you want to contact support agents, then you have
to write an email and wait. It seems to me that this is
far from the best option to get a quick answer. On
average, I had to wait about 20-40 minutes for each
response. This is unacceptable! It seems to me that the
company's pricing policy allows you to add online chat and
even hire more agents.
Conclusion
It's time for the final words. This company surprisingly
managed to stay on the market for a very long time. This
is especially shocking given the quality of my paper. I
advise you to ignore the positive UKEssays reviews as they
may be part of the company's marketing plan. It's best if
you find an alternative website and don't risk it.
The fact is that even a 2-page paper is too expensive as a
test assignment. Do not forget that this is a British
company, and the difference in time zones with Australia
or the United States can be significant. This is why you
shouldn't expect support managers to be very fast.
