Upwork is nest of scammers The freelance site upwork.com is a joke; it's absolutely full of scammers. It seems that anyone from India, Pakistan, or other places with just a device can call themselves a full-stack developer. They promise you everything, but in the end, they are at most, at best, high school graduates who happen to have a computer. Do NOT, I repeat, let yourself be scammed like I was for thousands of US dollars. Contacting Upwork is not possible, and if you complain about a freelancer and give them one or two stars, they can also rate the client with a star. Do you understand that? I will advise everybody to stay away from it

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.

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!

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.

Complete waste of time and money A complete waste of time and money. Their pro membership gives you more connects, but it doesn't help you get work. When you're starting from scratch its literally impossible to get work without any reviews. You can be the most talented, experienced professional in your field but you'll lose out to a cheap off-shore solution. I've spent hundred of dollars on membership, sending proposals, cutting costs to the point of it not even being worth it, and still no interest.
