Writersperhour.com Review

Prices and Discounts

For a company based in Cyprus with a roster full of non-native English-speaking writers, Writers per Hour sure thinks high of itself. The prices start at $11.99, but that’s for high schoolers and a 30-day (!) deadline. Realistically, you’ll have to pay at least $17.99 if you’re in college and have ten days to spare. My 3-page essay on a 5-day deadline cost almost $72, which is higher than I’m usually willing to pay for such a short piece.

Luckily, I got a Writersperhour.com promo code in exchange for a newsletter subscription. The offer is generous - 20% off and a plagiarism report upon request. It’s undoubtedly a clever marketing trick to lure you in with a promise of proof of originality.

Services Quality

You didn’t come here to read my novel-length writersperhour.com review. You want to know if it’s worth the money. Sorry to disappoint, but I don’t have a short answer for you. On the one hand, my essay “Is leadership an innate or acquired personality trait?” wasn’t too bad. The writer managed to find a few ingenious sources and provide solid analysis. On the other hand, the paper was riddled with mistakes and redundancies, so I feel like the writer didn’t bother editing and proofreading at all. After I deleted the wordy parts, I had to rewrite a few passages and add a few lines to hit the word count. So while the writing wasn’t bad, it was certainly overpriced.

BTW, the order process was surprisingly streamlined and fast. The only unpleasant surprise in the order form was the offer to pay +35% to get an ENL writer. Before I found the option, I’d assumed all writers were native English speakers. 

Online Reputation 

SiteJabber 

With 50+ Writersperhour reviews and a 4.7-star rating, the company’s SiteJabber profile looks impressive. Most reviews seem genuine and positive, though I found a handful of unhappy posts. Missed deadlines and unfulfilled instructions are among the common complaints, along with the lack of refunds. Disturbingly, the company representatives do not respond to the negative reviews.

Trustpilot 

The service’s Trustpilot page is a blank slate. Although the profile is claimed, there are zero reviews. On the bright side, the page hasn’t been removed from Trustpilot altogether, unlike other writing services. 

Reddit

Unfortunately, most writersperhour.com Reddit reviews are utterly useless. At best, they are genuine with a few complaints. At worst, they are clearly doctored and hold links to rival writing services. I wouldn’t trust anything you read on Reddit about this company. 

Other Review Websites

I went over a handful of other independent reviews, and the opinions are split evenly between the fans and the haters. ScamFighter and BestWritingClues do not recommend this service, while Essay Review Expert is all for it. Some, like Top Writers Review, share my mixed feelings about the service. I guess it comes down to your budget and luck getting a suitable writer for your order.

Social Media Activity

Facebook

Facebook is the only way to reach the company aside from email, so it isn’t surprising new posts pop up every few days with helpful tips for students. At the same time, the page only has 350 followers, and there are no likes or comments under any of the recent posts. And so I couldn’t find any reviews on the Facebook page. 

Twitter

The Twitter account is a mirror image of the Facebook page with the same gifs and posts. Even if it seems a bit more popular with 400+ followers, there’s the same suspicious lack of likes, comments, and retweets.

Youtube

The company’s Youtube channel is a joke. It holds a single short video posted three years ago. And the sole Youtube review is painful to watch. 

Customer Support

It’s rare that a writing service doesn’t bother with quality support, and Writersperhour is the exception that proves the rule. Getting any response via email takes hours, if not days, and Facebook Messenger isn’t much better. All the agents I talked to were more interested in getting my money than answering my questions or helping me. Even if the writing quality had been excellent, the customer support experience would have turned me off using this service again.

Guarantees

Unfortunately, the MoneyBack Policy is another low point of my Writersperhour review. The terms seem unnecessarily complex and almost impossible to fulfill on our end. There’s a list of seven items you need to provide for the company to consider giving your money back. And the list includes things like a reliable plag report and a screenshot of you and your professor discussing your paper. If you decide to pursue a refund claim, the company can take up to 20 days to process it. In other words, a refund is highly unlikely.

Conclusion

I know this Writersperhour review seems like a roller-coaster. While I got a decent essay, I still had to edit it, and the rest of my experience was barely passable. I’m not sure the good reviews make up for lousy support agents or the convoluted refund terms. So I leave it to you to decide if you want to try this service with all its ups and downs.
