EssayBox Review

1. Service Review

EssayBox wants us to believe it’s a trustworthy company that offers high-quality writing services for overworked students. Their range of paper types and courses is impressive, but the services are overpriced. Moreover, the company misleads customers, and their writing does not meet undergraduate requirements. Is EssayBox scam? They won’t steal your money, but the paper will likely be a disappointment.

2. Pros and Cons

PROS:

• Multiple positive reviews on Trustpilot and SiteJabber

CONS:

• Mediocre writing, weak structure and word choice
• Overpriced papers and zero chance of getting the money back
• Misleading information on the homepage

3. Online reputation

While my Essay Box Reddit search was fruitless, I found dozens of positive reviews on both SiteJabber and Trustpilot. However, one Essay Box review, allegedly by their employee, complained about writers not being paid and the company being based in Ukraine instead of the US. EssayBox Facebook page raised further questions, as most reviews there are posted by Ukrainian clients. Is EssayBox legit? My online search did not provide a definitive answer.

4. Guarantees

The company offers free unlimited revisions, but they come with a deadline. You can only get your paper revised within ten days (20 days for longer pieces) upon delivery. Despite the bold 100% Money-Back Guarantee on the homepage, I couldn’t find a condition that would ensure a full EssayBox refund, unless you pay for the same paper twice. I don’t think getting a refund without a PayPal dispute is a viable option.

5. Types of Services

The list of subjects covered by the EssayBox writers is impressive and spans from Accounting to Theology. Essays, research papers, and case studies are among the popular paper types. However, the company can also craft “corporate documents”, web content, poems, and more.

6. Ordering Process

The order process starts with an email and ends with payment. In between, I had to specify the type of service and academic level, choose the writer and add extra features to the cart. The number of pages and the deadline were also present on the first stage of the order process. Discipline, title, formatting style, and paper details made up the second and final step of the process.

7. Prices and Fees

EssayBox prices are not student-friendly. High school writing starts at $15.20 per page (275 words, double space), while undergrads are expected to pay $19 to $21.84, depending on the year of study. That’s with a 15-day deadline. The shorter timeline you choose, the higher the price. Top writers add $7.99, and ENL writers add $8.99 to the page rate.

8. Paper Quality

The paper I got was not the two-page essay I ordered. Instead of a traditional structure, the writer used huge passages without a clear division into introduction, body, and conclusion. I did not find a thesis statement, so the whole paper seemed unfocused, full of redundancies and ramblings. The revision was not a vast improvement I expected, so I had to rewrite it on my own time. Is EssayBox good? Not by a long shot!

9. Customer Support

I asked Abby about the misunderstanding with the need to pay extra to hire ENL writers while the homepage promises all writers to be native English speakers. My questions stumped her, and the support agent did not resolve the misunderstanding. Abby admitted that not all writers are ENL.

10. Offers and Extra Services

The company offers a variety of extra services, such as priority support, editor’s check, plagiarism report, one-page summary, and more. The rates are anywhere between $4.99 and $19.99. I got lucky and used a 5% off essaybox.org discount code for my first order. However, there’s also a loyalty program with onetime and lifetime discounts from 5% to 15%.
