Poor success rate I’ve used the site 4 times and only once have I received what was paid for. Full of untrustworthy freelancers who just do not deliver on tasks.

Not recommend to anyone Not recommend to anyone, nor freelancer neither clients. Was the best freelance platform. Now it's the worst. - Average bid cost is about 3$ while average project cost is 10$. - About 85% of projects posted are fake. - Service fee is 2 times larger than it was year ago. - Awful support (looks like it doesn't exist at all). - Scammers scammers scammers. Extremely greedy company who ruins their business themselves.

Thieves and scammers Absolutely to be avoided.... A den of scammers from Pakistan nigeria and other remote places . I was scammed for $100. I won the dispute but Upwork refuses to give me the money back. Makes excuse after excuse blaming PayPal . They are a den of thieves . Stay away from them .

Terrible website full of sharks and… Terrible website full of sharks and there is NO protection or customer service. We found a freelancer on Upwork - who caused us so much damage. They also sneakily get you to sign up to there dreadful service and its impossible to find out how to stop the subscription. All automated CS no one interest and couldn't give a damn. Still trying to contact them - the chat is a BOT not a person

Absolute Nightmare!! I paid for a 30 minute consultation with J. M., a grant writer. She didn't show up! Finding a solution on their corn-maze of a website was futile. Apparently if **I** file a dispute, it automatically goes to the freelancer! She's the one who didn't show up!! I finally managed to get to a live chat agent and it took him 40 minutes to only tell me the same thing and that he had to **manually** raise a ticket to send to the Dispute Team. This sounds like an absolute scam. I'll take it up with my bank and dispute the charge. Sounds like this freelancer has found a loophole on how to make money. Shameful!
