General Info
When you are a college student, term papers and major projects can have a major effect on your class grade, which in turn can mean the difference between finding a good job and struggling financially for the rest of your life. With so much on the line, it is reasonable to seek out custom academic writing services. When you choose a good company, you can see your grades increase, which relieves so much stress. But when you make the wrong decision, the writing service can actually place your academic career in jeopardy, especially when they fail to submit papers by the deadline or hire unqualified writers. So how can you distinguish the reputable companies from the unreliable ones? That is what we are here to do. We provide unbiased reviews about custom writing companies so that you can make well-informed decisions.
For this article, we have prepared Writing-Help review. According to Whois.net, this company launched its writing services in 2012. That is plenty of time for a company to have established. They do not have a page dedicated to the services they offer, but it is a simple matter of looking through the options when filling out the order form. We found that they offer the same services that all of their competitors provide. The website contains a free plagiarism checker, which is a convenient feature that you cannot find on all custom writing websites.
In order to best evaluate their services, we requested a custom paper for ourselves. We also examined a few important elements such as pricing, discounts and customer service. As with all other reviews, we asked for a 5-page high school-level history paper (double-spaced) with a 7-day deadline. We also asked for 4 sources, APA format and requested an American-based writer. Read below to find out what we discovered.
Prices, Discounts, Payments
When you check out the pricing page, there is a nice built-in calculator that allows you to find out exactly how much a paper will cost. Their high school-level papers start at $10/page, which is one of the cheapest in the industry. The final price depends on such factors as the type of assignment, academic level, deadline and number of pages. Their maximum deadline is generally 14 days, although they also offer 30 day deadlines if the paper is 30 pages or more. Their shortest deadlines are 4 hours.
If you are a first-time customer, you might be disappointed to discover that they will not offer you a discount. However, they do have a lifetime discount program for repeat customers. You are automatically entitled to a discount when the following conditions are met:
- 5% after you have spent a total of $500
- 10% after you have spent a total of $1000
- 15% after you have spent a total of $2000
We were also unable to find any seasonal or holiday discount promotions.
Ordering a service is fast and convenient. They accept all major credit cards along with PayPal. We suggest that you be as specific about your instructions as possible so that misunderstandings do not arise. When reading feedback, we often notice that customers will complain about things that could have been avoided if they had simply done a better job of telling the writer what they want.
Our paper cost $75, which was a good $10 less than what most others charge. Given that the company does not offer first-time discounts, that is pretty impressive. But it is also reasonable to be skeptical of a company that offers such low prices since it often impacts the quality of the paper. How did Writing-Help.com fare? You are about to find out!
Quality of Papers
The website contains a testimonials page with not a single negative review. For this reason, we do not put much stock into it. Third-party websites are a much better way to get unbiased feedback. From what we read, Writing-Help.com does not rate particularly high. Most of the complains tend to be in regards to receiving papers that written way too simplistically to have been done by a professional. Grammar and word choices also tend to be issues.
As for our high school history paper, it definitely could not be mistake for a masterpiece. But it was not a disaster either. It contained grammar mistakes throughout and there is no possible way that it could have been written by a native-English speaker. But the formatting was fine, the sources were reputable and the writer more or less followed our directions. In a nutshell, it was passable as a high school paper, but we might have gotten better insight into the quality of the paper if we had requested college-level writing.
Support
The customer support team at Writing-Help.com is not available 24/7, which puts it at a major disadvantage over its competitors. For instance, they close up shop on Saturdays at 8:00pm UK time, which is 3:00pm if you live in the Eastern Time Zone and do not open again until Monday at midnight (7:00pm EST). This could be a problem if you have an urgent issue that needs to be addressed on Sunday afternoon. In any event, when their offices are open they can be reached toll-free by phone, email and live chat. We reached them through all three methods and found them to be friendly and polite, although perhaps not entirely honest. When we asked where the call center was located, they said Ukraine and Latvia. In spite of the evidence that our writer was not a native-English speaker, they remained tight-lipped when we brought this up.
Conclusion
If you are looking for a decent high school-level paper, Writing-Help.com can accomplish this. Just be warned that your writer is not going to be a native-English speaker no matter what they claim. If you want a paper that is legitimately written by an American or Brit, there are better websites to choose. But keep in mind that they are bound to be much more expensive. We would recommend Writing-Help.com, but with reservations.
Beware!
Writing-Help.com is rated 8.2/10 which is below average.

I do not have any complaints about their Customer Support – guys do a nice job, replying swiftly and efficiently. I wish those agents were responsible for my work as well. My assignment was quite urgent, only 24 hours were given to complete it, so I understand that the writer might have been under pressure. Yet, you promise cooperation with the best writers ever, and I got an average work of a high-school level… A disappointment.
THIS WEBSITE IS A SCAM. My average research ordered from them had more than 150 mistakes and typos and I requested a revision. They corrected only a dozen of them. I called them several times, but their customer support team is not organized at all. They do not answer the phone, but they do intense advertising of their services on different websites. Scammers from India!
Terrible people! Terrible service! They cannot manage their time at all! A common request for extensions is irritating. They make it clear that they take control over the urgency of every paper. You can try ordering papers from them only if you are not in a hurry. However, it is much wiser not to trust these writers at all.
If you compare the quality and prices at Writing-help.com, you will be terrified. Even with your holiday offers, it makes no sense. What is more, I did not like the style of your writing. So, I asked for revision and I got the same text with a paraphrased paragraph. Do you think it really helps? Oh, and communication with the support staff is so much disappointing. I don’t recommend writing-help.com.
They cheated on me! They took my money and gave me a fake promise to help. I was correcting mistakes in that crap for an hour and then I stopped and just started writing myself from scratch.
The paper I received was not that bad but still required revision. All my attempts to explain what I wanted were never heard. They never followed my requests and I had to revise the paper myself. This free revision service is useless.
The payment for the order exceeded what I agreed to pay. I was ready to pay $15 and the writer agreed, but the system did not allow me to pay less than $28; otherwise, they would not accept my paper.
They do not sound like adult writers! I got poor attempts of the preschoolers instead of a research paper. Such a shock! writing-help.com is a waste of time! I do not mention money that they do not return!
When I registered my order online, I provided a list of requirements and uploaded the instructions from my professor. I also specified that the paper is needed for my Master’s degree in Psychology. I got a mediocre-quality paper that is definitely not of Master’s level. Besides, when I checked the paper via anti-plagiarism software, it showed 40% of plagiarism. This is totally unacceptable.
I was overloaded with work, and this service came to my mind. I placed my order without hesitation. The price was exorbitant — and at first, I thought it is an indication of top-quality content. But no. The order I got was a total failure. I faced a lot of confusion throughout the process of communication with the company’s administration. Besides, I had to contact them a few times and ask them to improve my paper.
I trusted them but in the end I missed the due date! Worst of all, the writer assigned to me didn’t follow my instructions. I expected the best since I paid for a “top” writer
The guidelines were not followed and my paper was delivered 24 hours after the imposed deadline. This service is terrible.
If you think that you will get a quality piece of writing from this company, you are mistaken. I paid a large sum of money and received a paper of a very low quality what resulted in an unsatisfactory grade. I cannot recommend this company to anyone.
I can't say that I'm very pleased with the writing I received. An average work which I had to improve by myself. They have a lot of things to improve.
Not a bad essay, I would say. Overall, it looks ok, but my professor said it is a paraphrased article, so it is plagiarized!
I am supposed to get a Ph.D. quality paper that have I paid for, though I did not receive such quality. Please, stop cheating on your customers!
I ordered a few articles for my blog and asked the writers to imitate my style. My readers did not notice the difference.
It was hard to find any information about their writers in order to check their experience and qualifications, so I did not risk ordering from them.
Fake! 100% fraud!
Avoid this company. I’m sure they also work under some other names and I bet they don’t have a single writer with English major.
This presentation is garbage and I had to do it all over after being working for 15 hours. Not happy at all!! Stop cheating on your clients because they do not deserve such treatment!
Absolutely terrible. I paid for a college-style paper and it was not written properly. I’m frustrated.
This company is a bloody scam. The result was awful, poorly structured, plagiarized piece of something strange.
Ordered an original film review and got a film review on another film review. The pages were wrongly numbered, and some of the sentences repeated other film reviews found available online. The author referenced the other film reviews numerous times in my work. Not what I expected to get. Rubbish!
The staff respond very quickly and is very helpful. My papers are always written very professional and I receive excellent grades from my professors. Though the prices are a bit higher than average, well, at least they do their job well.
They refused to do my work! Unbelievable! They said it wasn't in the list of their services. I saw it in their list. They stated that the page wasn't refreshed and they don't do this kind of work any more. It's a shame their prices were suitable to me.
I've had very peasant experiences with this company. The writers are amazing and speak English as a first language. Wouldn't go anywhere else!
