Coverage delayed less than 24 hours is not subject to any refund or compensation. Thank you for your understanding.
- Drafts may be updated up to 12 hours after submission. We will notify the reader of the updated draft, but if the reader has already begun working on your script they will continue to work on the original draft. After 12 hours we cannot accept any updates.
