Introduction

One of the most essential criteria that students take into account when they select a custom writing company is price rates. EssayChief.com is an online custom writing service that proclaims that clients can choose academic writing services that fit their budget. It is crucial for students to come across affordable and reasonable prices in order not to live on a shoestring. As such, it may be a time-consuming process to find a company that will satisfy these students’ needs. Since many companies only attract customers by claiming that they have fair prices but at the same time they do not provide premium-quality writing help, we have decided to review EssayChief.com and find out whether the company practices what it preaches. 

The design of the website is rather simplistic and plain. Nonetheless, it is full of promises and guarantees of different kinds. First of all, the company claims that they are the safest and the most reliable company to deal with. Second, they promise excellent customer support service that operates 24/7. Read on the review to know for sure whether you can trust your paper to EssayChief.com.

Services

EssayChief.com offers assistance with the most popular types of papers, such as essays, research papers, articles, reviews, reports, term papers, and dissertations among others. The list could actually be longer but the most frequently assigned papers are included.

Formatting Styles and Word Number per Page + Spacing 

The words rate per page starts from 300 words depending on spacing. Particularly, if you order double spacing, Times New Roman font type and 12 pt font size, then your page will include 300 words. The company specializes in the most popular citation styles and formats. 

Price Policy

If you order an essay and set the deadline for 7 days, you will have to pay 17.75 USD per page, which is not a fair price for a student, taking consideration that the writing is of high school level. The same rate for an undergraduate level will cost 22.75 USD, whereas a one page of dissertation will cost the whole of 31.95 USD.

Free Additional Services

• Outline, abstract, and reference page;
• Academic paper samples;
• 24/7 customer support service. 

Discounts

The company does not offer any discounts for first-time customers, and this company has been operating on the custom writing market for almost two decades. We doubt how they won their clientele base at all, considering the fact they do not have any special offers. The absence of any discounts is a real disadvantage. 

The only special offer they have is a discount for returning customers – 10%. A good thing is that this discount is applied to each subsequently ordered paper. However, this is the biggest discount you could even get with this service. 

Order Placement Process

The process of ordering papers is easy and will not take much time. The order placement form is in no way different from the other websites, so you just need to fill in order details into a special application form and upload any templates, documents, instructions or paper guidelines if you have them. Afterwards, you have to pay for the paper and wait till one of the writers accepts the order. The online payment is totally safe. As a rule, PayPal is used.

The Experience We Had with the Website

We placed a research paper order to review how well the company copes with custom writing assignments. Particularly, our core aim was to find out whether the high price is worth paying. After we got the paper, we can say that the overall quality is satisfactory but it is not completely worth the money paid. For such a price, the quality could have been better. The writing style did not correspond to the academic complexity that we mentioned. Still, the overall paper organization, citation, and formatting were great.

Writers’ Qualifications

It seems the writer lacks fluency to make the paper suit the required academic level of writing. The writer provided a good discussion, used sufficient evidence, consulted only credible and updated sources but the writer did not go extra mile with the paper. 

Website Design and Usability 

The website is simplistic and it does not make an impression that professionals worked on its design and development. There are no pictures and visuals – merely background and text. Moreover, there are even occasional mistakes in terms of grammar, spelling, and punctuation. There is no blog with tips or guidelines but we have found a few articles that may help students write a paper on their own. Most of information is placed on the homepage and it takes some effort to find the other needed information. 

Customer Support Service

EssayChief.com provides round-the-clock customer support service, which means that you can contact the customer support team at any time of the day or night if you need urgent help or have some inquiries regarding your order. However, there is no option of instant messaging. There is no telephone number indicated on the website either. Another disadvantage is that you have to log in any time you want to contact the customer support center. 

Reliability

There is no important information about the company, such as terms and conditions, the company policy or guarantees. There is really general descriptive information, which does not seem legit. 

Revision Policy

According to the company’s claims, they offer unlimited revisions until you are fully satisfied with the paper. 

Refund Policy 

The company offers some other guarantees:

• 100% money refund;
• Plagiarism-free original papers;
• Full confidentiality and security of data.

The Company’s Experience in the Industry

If to believe the information found on the company’s website, the company has existed since 2002. It was hard to find some old feedbacks or reviews about the company in the other social media networks.

The Company’s Reputation among Customers

It was different to form a specific opinion on the company before reviewing it on our own since there was no separate page with feedbacks or testimonials. Still, having conducted a more in-depth investigation online, we have found many negative feedbacks and even complaints from customers. 

Advantages and Disadvantages

All things considered, we cannot recommend this service to students and other potential clients. The high prices of papers do not adhere to the quality the company’s writers provide. One can find better options of custom writing services online for a more favorable and affordable price.
