While we always attempt to fulfill our promised turnaround times, and succeed in doing so more than 99% of the time, occasionally heavy traffic, staff holidays, or uncontrollable events prevent the coverage from being returned within the promised turnaround time. 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.
