HOW CAN WE HELP?

Frequently Asked Questions

  • Can I pay after I receive the edited document?
    Regular clients and any full-time faculty who provide us with complete and verifiable contact details are eligible to pay for our editing service on completion. We commence editing as soon as the interactive quote is confirmed. For other clients and students we require payment before commencing work. You will receive a PDF invoice with payment instructions via email immediately upon confirmation of your interactive quote. Please arrange payment as soon as possible as the service period selected commences only when we have received confirmation of payment.
  • Can I get a hard-copy invoice?
    In most cases, our invoice in PDF format suffices, but we are happy to post a hard copy invoice to you if it is really required. Please make a request to our client support team at cs@asiaedit.com and provide us with your full postal address. We will post the hard copy the next business day.
  • What should I do if I lose your invoice or receipt?
    We are happy to re-issue any invoices or receipts. Please simply contact our client support team at cs@asiaedit.com and remember to provide your order number or the email you used when placing the order to expedite our response and action.
  • I have some research budget to use, but my paper is not ready for editing yet. Can I deposit funds in advance?
    Yes! Indeed, we have a number clients that deposit funds with us for future academic editing services. If you would like to do so, please write to our client support team at cs@asiaedit.com and inform us how much you would like to deposit. We will then issue an invoice with transaction details for you. You will be issued a receipt once you have completed the transaction.

After the editing is completed, we will deduct the corresponding invoiceable amount from your deposited sum, and also inform you of your updated deposit balance.
