be done through the proper channels by contacting us first. Need-an-article.net/com

with the sole intent to compete with NAA. Republishing content originating
from NAA and maintaining NAA as the 'publisher'. Having multiple
accounts with the intent to bypass allotted content request limits.
Customer service terms and usage policy
Although Need An Article does posses a valid email address, it
is not the primary way we administer customer service. Because
email can be 'hit and miss' and unreliable at times; due to the
various reasons we can not fully expound on here, we have resorted
to using help desk software to offer a more reliable and
stable customer service experience. Because this help desk is accessible
and available in both the members' and public area of the site,
we will require clients to use this channel of communication for
any such customer support issues that may arise. Choosing
NOT to utilize the help desk does not make us liable or subjugable
to scrutiny on the part of someone (Be it client or potential client)
who simply does not like to read. So we ask that you use
the help desk located in the members' area labeled "Support"
and on the main site near the top right under "Questions?".
Thank you.
Content Refund policy
Because we have no way of controlling how you use the content you
receive back from us, we do not issue
refunds, or initiate reassignments on article requests, press release
requests, or any type of requests available on the site unless it
can absolutely be proven a given writer was unqualified, or negligent
in fulfilling a request.
Article credit Refund policy
We have a 30 day article credit return policy. After
which, we do not issue refunds on credit purchases. However,
because we keep a record of all accounts active and inactive, we
do allow inactive accounts to be reactivated and any unused credits
to be used for future requests.

fees are only refundable 7 days after joining Need An Article. Also,
we are not obligated to honor membership fee refund requests on
