By far the most annoying experience… By far the most annoying experience I've ever had with a freelancer platform. My account is simply blocked for no reason and despite repeated requests. What exactly the problem is, is referred to the terms and conditions and after reviewing the terms and conditions, despite repeated correspondence, I see no reason that justifies the blocking. I can't get any clear information from support. For me, this is nothing other than the biggest scam. How can you block the account of someone who is economically dependent on it? That's unbelievable. I will never use this stupid platform again.

Suspension for no reason!! I have urgent work and my account got suspended multiple times for no reason. I literally did nothing to get my account suspended! And now they don't even respond to me. Absolutely unacceptable customer service.

Unfair & Expensive Platform Upwork is not a great place for freelancing. Everything is getting expensive. 3$ just to apply to a job. Not happy with this platform.

tl;dr Upwork simply dont. tl;dr Upwork simply dont. Upwork is a very bad place to work with clients. I tried to offer severl projects. As soon as one project was accepted by a freelancer the site suspended my profile. Support is not helping at all. Their responses are not related to the issue. Verification process is failing for unknown reasons, no feedback. Tickets are marked as solved without being. Communication with freelancer who started with the project is not possible, as they Upwork denies any communication. Long story short, i went to another site which is much better.

site that extracts data and money Freelancers have to make a public profile with a photo of their face, first name and city, which is enough information to identify you if you live in a smaller town or just have an unique name - at the same time it doesn't influence scammers with a very common name or those who are unreachable anyway. Clients don't have to do the same and there are lots of scams. You need to pay upwork to apply for jobs, so freelancers are basically paying to get scammed. At the same time, actual clients aren't happy with the results, as the site focuses more on people's appearance and names (this whole site looks like Facebook), rather than verifying their portfolio and work experience. It is a perfect place to mine data though.
