Hi,

Does anyone have any experience of Essays Essays Pool? This is their website:

(as a new user I am not allowed to post links! it is essays essays pool . com - without the gaps!)

I've applied to write for them and they've sent me contract and legally binding undertaking to sign.

Thanks in advance,

Simon

As with any work from home opportunity, it's up to you to carry out checks on the Company to be sure that they're a genuine company who will pay you and that what they want you to do is legal and above board.

The website that you've referred to is plainly aimed at recruiting writers. (And it's .net not .com)

Before I would carry out any work for this Company I would be looking to:

1) Verify that the Company is properly registered with Companies House as it claims to be

2) Call the Company and actually talk to somebody

3) Try and get to speak to writers who are getting paid by the Company

4) Check how the Company sells the work that it's writers produce (Is it REALLY selling academic research, or is it a "plagiarist's paradise" offering dissertations to students who are either too thick or simply can't be arsed to write their own?) and ask to see websites

Simple ways to check out the Company:

1) Use WebCheck to search for the Company and check that the addresses match up, how long it's been incorporated and that the Company is not about to be wound up

2) Call the telephone number on the site and check that you're not being connected to a call centre on the other side of the world. (In this instance, the only contact number on the site is a mobile, which would put me off, but that's just me.)

3) Find some Freelance Writer's forums and post your questions about the Company there.

4) Google is your friend!

IF you're completely satisfied that you've done everything you can to check out the Company and you're happy that it's on the level, then I wish you luck!

Yea the mobile number as a contact put me off too! I will do the searches you have suggested and look for some freelance writer forums and see what I can dig up.

Thanks for your advice.
