Tutoring versus having work done

TutorBin Referral Code

Q: Is using a homework help service illegal?

Not for the student. Since April 2022 the Skills and Post-16 Education Act 2022 makes it a criminal offence in England to provide or arrange contract cheating services for financial gain, and to advertise them — but using one is not a criminal offence. It is, however, treated as severe academic misconduct and can end a degree.

Q: What is the difference between tutoring and contract cheating?

Tutoring is someone explaining a subject so that you can do the work. Contract cheating is a third party completing work that you then submit as your own. Platforms often offer both, so the line is drawn by what you ask for and what you do with the output — not by the website.

Q: Does the law apply everywhere in the UK?

No. Part 4, Chapter 1 of the Skills and Post-16 Education Act 2022 covers England. It does not extend to Wales, Scotland or Northern Ireland, though similar provision has been widely expected.

Q: Doesn't "plagiarism-free" make it acceptable?

No, and the phrase is frequently misread. Plagiarism-free means the text is not copied from an existing source. It says nothing about who wrote it. Originality checking detects copying rather than authorship, which is precisely why contract cheating became the concern once copy-detection got good.

Q: Why won't this page publish a discount code?

Because advertising contract cheating services is itself an offence in England under the same Act, and this page previously led with a first-order discount. A code shown to a student in England for a service marketed as "pay someone to do my homework" sits inside that offence rather than beside it.

Q: What should I use instead?

Your institution's academic support, subject tutors, study groups, and worked examples or video explanations — including from platforms like this one. The test that keeps you safe is not which website you use, but whether you can do the next question yourself afterwards.

Genie Says

TutorBin markets both tutoring and pages headed "Pay someone to do my homework", and those are different products in law: since April 2022 the Skills and Post-16 Education Act 2022 has made providing or arranging contract cheating for financial gain a criminal offence in England, and advertising it a separate offence. The Act does not extend to Wales, Scotland or Northern Ireland, and does not criminalise the student — though it is severe academic misconduct. "Plagiarism-free" describes copying, not authorship. No discount code is published here.

How to Use a TutorBin Referral Code

Separate the two products

Tutoring explains a subject so you can do the work. Contract cheating produces work you submit as your own.

Know the English law

Since April 2022 it is a criminal offence to provide or arrange contract cheating for financial gain — and to advertise it.

Apply the handing-in test

If the output is intended to be submitted as your own work, it is contract cheating whatever the service calls it.

Do not rely on "plagiarism-free"

That means the text is not copied from elsewhere. It says nothing about who wrote it.

Why Choose TutorBin?

The platform does not draw the line — you do

The same account and the same expert can deliver an explanation or a finished assignment. What you ask for decides which.

Advertising is a separate offence

The Act criminalises advertising essay mills and arranging for people to use them, not only providing the service.

Originality checks do not detect authorship

They detect copying. That is exactly why contract cheating became the problem once copy-detection improved.

The student faces misconduct, not prosecution

Using such a service is not a criminal offence, but it is severe academic misconduct and can end a degree.

About TutorBin

TutorBin markets both tutoring and pages headed "Pay someone to do my homework". Those are not the same product, and in England one of them is a criminal offence to provide — or to advertise.

TutorBin offers online tutoring and homework help, with subject specialists producing written and video solutions to submitted questions within a set deadline. It also markets pages headed "Do My Homework For Me", "Pay Someone To Do My Assignment" and "Pay Someone To Do My Homework", and advertises delivered work as plagiarism-free.

Those two descriptions are not the same service, and the distinction between them is a legal one in England.

Tutoring means someone explaining a subject so that you can do the work. A worked example, a walkthrough of a method, a video showing how an answer is reached — all of that is ordinary education, has existed as long as education has, and is unaffected by anything in this page.

Contract cheating means a third party completing work that a student then submits as their own. Since April 2022, under the Skills and Post-16 Education Act 2022, Part 4, Chapter 1, it has been a criminal offence in England to provide, or to arrange for another person to provide, contract cheating services for financial gain to students at post-16 institutions or enrolled with higher education providers in England. It is a separate offence to advertise such services or to arrange for people to use them.

Two territorial and personal qualifications matter. The Act covers England — not Wales, Scotland or Northern Ireland, though similar provision has been widely expected. And it does not criminalise the student: using such a service is not an offence, but it is treated as severe academic misconduct and can end a degree.

So where does TutorBin sit? That depends entirely on what is bought. A platform can genuinely offer both — explanation for students who want to learn, and completed assignments for students who want them submitted — and the same account, the same interface and the same "expert" can deliver either. The line is not drawn by the platform. It is drawn by what you ask for and what you then do with it.

The practical test is unambiguous and worth holding onto: if the output is intended to be handed in as your own work, it is contract cheating, whatever the service calls it. "Plagiarism-free" does not change that — plagiarism-free means the text is not copied from elsewhere, not that it is yours. Originality checks detect copying, not authorship, which is precisely why contract cheating became the problem institutions worried about once copy-detection got good.

This site is not going to publish a discount code for that, and the previous version of this page led with "30% off first order". A referral code for a service marketed as "pay someone to do my homework", shown to a student in England, sits inside the advertising offence rather than beside it.

If you need help with a subject, the useful version of this exists everywhere: your institution's own academic support, subject tutors, study groups, and yes, worked examples and video explanations from platforms like this one. The distinction that keeps you safe is not which website you use. It is whether you can do the next question yourself afterwards.
