Table of Contents

Papersowl.com is a company that presents customers with the option of selecting a writer once they have placed an order and received bids, based upon the details of that order. It focuses entirely on academic writing needs for students at all levels of study. To complete this PapersOwl review, we have addressed the same factors that we do with all of our reviews – the website content, the policies and procedures, on-site Papers Owl testimonials, the quality of products produced, the quality of customer service, Papers Owl customer reviews that we have found on the web and that have been submitted to us, and, finally, pricing, discounts, and other benefits.

SERVICES AND FEATURES AVAILABLE

The most important thing to understand about this company is that writers are not assigned to customer orders. Once an order is placed, it is up for bids from the entire cadre of writers registered on the site. According to the company, they all have Master’s or Ph.D. degrees; however, through chats with some of them, they obviously do not. Customers do have the ability to chat with bidders and to learn more about them. Unfortunately, their responses to us were so short and curt, we really did not have the ability to assess their communication skills. 

Students can order anything from a basic essay or research paper, all the way through a Ph.D. dissertation. This includes such products as book and movie reviews, case studies, lab reports, projects and presentations, critiques and analyses, homework assignments, and admissions essays.

Beyond this feature, there are some policies which are meant to guarantee quality to customers. For example, the writer is not paid until the customer approves of the final product. In reality, the customer must put the money on account in advance. And many customers have stated that they were unable to get their money back when they failed to approve and asked for a refund.

PRICING SYSTEM AND DISCOUNTS

Pricing for a product obviously varies, and there is no single chart for cost. The student receives bids, holds conversations with those bidders, and then selects the writer at an agreed upon price. If a student is an expert negotiator, he may be able to get the price down.

Students looking for PapersOwl.com discounts, promo codes, or any kind of a coupon code for newcomers will not find these things, as they often will on other writing service websites. We did go through the bidding process for an 8-page research paper at the college level, even though we never order the product.  We received many quotes on the order, all of which were in the $220 range. This is high in comparison with other services. We also held a few conversations with bidding writers, some of whom were obviously not native English-speakers.

SECURITY LEVEL

In terms of payment, students may use any major bank card or PayPal, and the methods are complete secure – a third-party processor is used. We are not certain how confidential a user’s information is; however, our writer only had a first name and a customer number. All in all, we can say that Papers Owl is safe to use, and customers should feel comfortable providing their financial information. No writer will ever have access to it. 

WRITER EXPERTISE AND DELIVERY

We relied on several things to determine writer expertise, as follows:

  • PapersOwl comments and feedback supplied to us and posted elsewhere on the web were not positive. Students complained about bad quality, poor customer service, and no recourse when they were unhappy.
  • Complaints about quality ranged from obvious grammatical and word usage errors, as well as low quality research resources. 
  • Some customers complain that their requests for revisions did not receive quick response from their writers, and so their final product was delivered after their deadline need. 
  • Still other customers stated that when they were totally dis-satisfied with their piece and requested a refund, there was a lot of red tape, the site administrators were hard to get ahold of, and customer support was almost non-existent. It seems that Paper Owl is not much more than a “matching service” with little other responsive support.
  • The site has a blog. If their own writers are composing these articles, it is no wonder that complaints are so numerous. The writing is, frankly, horrible.
  • Everyone stated they received their first final drafts on time.

In sum, we can say that Papers Owl is a legal company that takes orders and that has a cadre of writers ready to bid on those orders. And quality, it seems, is really varied, dependent upon the writer a customer chooses. 

ADDITIONAL BENEFITS

There are none. It is hard to get in touch with customer service, and that is only by email. Response time is slow. Despite the company’s guarantees of reviewing final drafts, this cannot be true. There are simply too many errors. There are no other benefits.

CONCLUSION

The biggest issue we have with Papersowl.com is the responsibility placed upon the student to find a high-quality writer for his need. He must do all of the work in investigating the backgrounds and experience of the bidders, and they can certainly exaggerate their educational backgrounds and expertise. The other issue we have is that the company does not really have a customer service department that is quickly available and fully responsive. PapersOwl depends on the customer to settle issues with his writer, and this is not ideal. Given the level of quality and the lack of real administrative control over the entire process, we are assigning a rating of 2, on our scale of 1-5.

Teodor : "Unprofessional and Bot like Customer Service"

"When asking questions do not expect to get real answers. The responses were so bad I actually thought I was talking to a Bot! The answers made no sense and were some kind of cookie-cutter response where the Customer Service Agent didn't even take the time to read my question. I was then informed it was a paid service, even though it clearly states it is a 24/7 online Customer Service Chat. When I inquired as to if they had even read my question as the response made no sense and asked if they had actually read it I somehow got kicked off and blocked from the chat for their ineptitude. If they cannot handle simple customer service questions I would not trust them to write any paper."

Helen: "I like the writer but the price is absurd. "

"I like the writer but the price is absurd. Very expensive. I requested to add another page to my paper and the price for 1 page was $42. The person I was chatting to said that it was an urgent request...which is ridiculous since it did not require additional research. She gave me $3 off for changing my due date for more than 24 hrs. I ask for discount since I am a previous customer but refused. I will not be using them anymore. I will find a substitute site to help me with my other papers."
