For a company that says they are the number one paper writing service, Rapid Essay sure has many bad reviews on the Web. We started this Rapidessay review research by checking their website. At first glance, the website looks perfectly fine, even too great to be true.
However, as soon as we progressed with our research and started reading Rapidessay.com review after review, we realized that they are really badly rated with customers. This cannot be a good sign and their extremely low prices certainly point in a bad direction.
Services offered by Rapid Essay
Plenty of services make the long list of RapidEssay. They even added an option other in the service list in case there’s a customer who didn’t find what they were looking for in the list.
It’s hard to believe that there will be such a customer because this list captures all papers assigned to students starting from high school and ending with dissertations for Doctoral degrees. Some of the most frequently ordered papers by students that this company has include:
- Essays of all kinds (including admission essay);
- Analysis of any type;
- Dissertations, theses, and dissertation chapters;
- Annotated bibliographies;
- Assignments, homework, and coursework;
- Journal articles, memos and letters;
- Lab reports;
- Speeches, presentations, and outlines;
This is just a part of a big list. It marked the beginning of this research quite nicely, but what follows will probably come as a disappointment.
What is the pricing model at Rapid Essay
Rapid Essay’s pricing model is one thing for sure – really cheap. For a service that claims to be the #1 paper writing service, they sure charge very little. It is impossible to believe that they could employ such great experts at prices that go below $10 when you add the discounts.
Yes, a paper at this service can cost $10 per page or less. For students who haven’t tried such low-priced companies, this sounds like a treat. But so far, we have never, ever found a company that is able to work with qualified writers and offer such rates. It’s simply not a reasonable offer.
The rate of $10 per page applies to high school level and a two-week deadline. If a high school student was to order, let’s say within 5 days, the price would be only $17 per page. If a PhD student orders within a week, the price is $30 per page.
Discounts and loyalty program
This is where the truth started to unravel about the company. There is no welcome discount which the agents told us explicitly. With those prices, it is perfectly okay not to have one. But, the website says that they have a loyalty program and discounts. And yet, the agents decided to keep this a secret and not tell us anything when we asked.
First of all, it took them over 30 minutes to respond on the live chat, which is unacceptable. We spoke 10 minutes to a bot that was poorly programmed until we finally got redirected to a real person. It’s a really bad customer support.
The agent of the support rejected our request to know about the loyalty program. Who does this? He said that we should order first and there’s no first-time discount, but their prices are really low. Then, when we want to order again, we should reach out to them again and they’ll decide what we get.
Other Features provided by Rapid Essay
Some extra features you could buy here are:
- Advanced expert writer – +25%
- Top 10 writers – +40%
- Native speaker – +30%
- Smart paper with detailed comments – +20%
- Writer samples – $5
- Copy of sources – $14.95
When we saw these offers in the order form, especially the third one, we were shocked! This company pretty much admitted that they don’t only work with native writers, which is entirely different from what they say on the website. You have to pay 30% extra to get a native writer. Otherwise, you can expect a bad paper, something that we received from the service.
Review Summary
Rapidessay.com makes many promises they do not fulfil. They have low prices until you realize that you have to pay 30% extra to get a native writer to do your paper. Their support is really unprofessional and basically unreachable. Yes, the company had some nice features like their big service list and their great pricing model, but the bottom line is – this is not a company you can trust to write a quality paper for you when you need it.
