As my exams approached I needed to spend more time studying and just did not have the time to spend on essays and assignments. As a couple of my friends and classmates had mentioned using PrivateWriting.com so I thought I’d give it a try too.

Services: Too vague and general
The first red flag I should have noticed was the fact that they didn’t ask for a level of writing when I made my order. Most essay writing sites will ask if you’re college, grad school, or PhD level. Private Writing didn’t ask any of this, so I should have known they weren’t legit.
Quality: Native English speakers?
When I sign up to an essay writing website that says they hire experts, I’d expect the writers to at least have a fluency in English. I’m not sure if this is illegal/legal advertising, because whoever wrote my essay did not write like English was their first language, or like they knew anything about the topic at all beyond Wikipedia. I think they changed parts of a template that’s constantly re-sold. It wouldn’t have been safe to hand my paper in, as when I received my order I was fairly sure parts were plagiarized.
Prices: Not a good deal for a bad product
The prices for this website are lower than some others. Without any promotion or code they apply a discount, but it seems like this is to just make you feel like you got a good deal. But, one of the reasons the prices are lower is because you can’t ask for a higher level paper, or specify the kind of grade you want. You’ll pay about $340 for a 3000-word paper with a fast turnaround or $240 for a two-week deadline – however that price means you’re getting a really bad essay.
Deadlines: Too quick for a good paper
They’ll offer to do a 2000 word paper in 24 hours – most students are aware that it is impossible to produce a well-researched and well-written paper in that time. This makes the whole thing a scam – they’re not lightening your workload as you have to make so many changes, you might as well write the paper yourself for free.
Customer service: No contact information
There is literally no ‘contact us’ info on their website, so you have to hope that the robotic chat can help you out. I tried to get a refund to my account, but with no contact number, and little support it wasn’t possible. I won’t log in or sign in again, and definitely won’t hire them again.
Conclusion
I felt like I had to leave a review of PrivateWriting, just to warn other students to stay away from them, and not make the same mistakes I did. While there are probably some great essay writing resources out there, this just is not one of them.
This company, privatewriting, published my ordered essay on their website a week later!!! Fortunately I noticed it before I sent the essay to my professor. DO NOT PLACE AN ORDER AT PRIVATEWRITING.COM!!!
