Oxbridgeessays.com Review

The website supposedly belongs to a family-run Icarus Education Ltd. However, the owners don’t want you to know the company is registered in the UAE, despite its UK office address. Although it may be a tax evasion scheme, it still seems suspicious. And as you read my Oxbridgeessays.com review, you’ll discover more weirdness about this service.

Before writing this review for Oxbridgeessays.com, I ordered a 1000-word essay on the benefits of handwritten notes compared to laptop note-taking in class. I set the deadline to 14 days and settled in for the wait.

The writer did a good job locating the pivotal research pieces on the topic and chose appropriate data and quotes for my essay. However, the analysis bits were extremely weak and did not mesh well with the reference data. The different parts of the body didn’t fit together. So while the essay wasn’t bad, it was definitely not worth the money I paid.

None of the negative Oxbridgeessays.com reviews I found mentioned plagiarism problems, so I wasn’t surprised to see that the similarity percentage of my Grammarly check was under 10%. It’s a reasonable amount for an original paper.

Oxbridge Essays offered multiple add-ons recommended for my essay, which I skipped over because I’d already exceeded my budget. Besides, I felt like having planning and follow-up calls or a 650-word essay development plan were overkill for such a short assignment.

I have mixed feelings about Oxbridgeessays.com prices. I like the idea of paying less for lower grades, but the rates that start at $167 per 1,000 words with a month-long deadline are astronomical. And when I set the grade to 70% and the deadline at two weeks, I had to pay over $350 for a 4-page essay. That’s the most expensive paper I ever got.

Promo Codes & Discounts

I was surprised to get a 30% discount when I first came across the website. But after I saw the rates, I realized it was extremely stingy. And I’m not sure if any discounts are available for the following orders.

I wonder why none of the glowing reviews of Oxbridgeessays.com mention the company’s no-refund policy. They will only give your money back if they cannot find the writer to work on your paper within 72 hours. So you’ll lose three days, but at least you’ll get your money back. You won’t get a refund if the writer messes up, that’s for sure. At least, you’ll get 10 days to request a revision if you’re lucky.

The company’s Trustpilot page is no longer active, while its SiteJabber rating is only 3.9 stars based on eight reviews. And I couldn’t make sense of Oxbridgeessays.com Reddit reviews, as most seemed fake. The only post I feel was real was by a writer, not a student. The academic complained about unfair job conditions and unpaid projects. That wasn’t very encouraging, considering the price I had to pay.

The Oxbridgeessays.com rating on Facebook is 4 out of 5 stars, but all reviews are spam posts about trading, and none deal with writing services. At least Facebook and Instagram accounts are relatively active, if devoid of likes and comments, while the Twitter account was abandoned in 2021.

On the one hand, customer support is available via phone, email, live chat, and WhatsApp. On the other hand, I could only reach them from 9 am to 6 pm, Monday to Friday. So getting answers on the weekend was next to impossible. While the team was helpful and respectful, I expected someone to be at my beck and call round-the-clock for the money I paid.

If you believe OxbridgeEssays will do well because they charge so much, think again. I paid $350+ and did not get my money’s worth in either writing services or customer support. I’m not coming back, and I suggest you stay away, too.
