Overall experience is weird Overall experience is weird. I mean it looks promising, but in the end it's really hard to get through the competition. Although I had quite a small niche, with about 20 gigs similar to mine, I still only got 2 messages and neither one decided to continue working together. The app itself is fine.

Fiverr cheats you by not revealing hidden costs. I was satisfied with the artist, Hunufa, both her work and her communication/ interaction. But i am annoyed that I ended up paying double of what fiverr's original quote was. Fiverr is deceptive. It is a kind of cheating not to let you know about additional fees before you purchase. And it seems that they force you to leave a tip before the gig is finalised. I don't mind leaving a tip, but I am angry that i was forced to do so at the last minute.

Biggest disappointment: they take % on the tips I've paid a seller for a coding on WordPress $500. The seller had very good reviews and he claimed to be experienced. He arranged several milestones so I would paid along with the deliveries. I've got nothing for the first milestone but a mere website I would have been able to make on my own. Then, he delayed, again and again and again, cancelling the meetings we had decided together at the last minute with ridiculous reasons. Because he was so late, I was entitled to query a refund, so I've asked to Fiverr customer service if the refund would be total, and they said yes. I then asked for the refund but got only half of the amount paid... EDIT: after struggling for a week or so, I finally got a refund from Fiverr. To be honest, after this bad experience, I looked for another platform for my project, but cannot find any that can proposed similar costs. So I will try again with them, but I regret I've been misleaded by their customer service in respect of the refund I was supposed to get. And I would have appreciated to get at least a time when my request would be dealt with instead of not having any news from them for days. I must say that at the end, I'm satisfied with how they managed my request. My biggest disappointment though, is that they take a purcentage on our tips to the seller, which I don't think is fair.

"I had an issue with a seller from Fiverr "I had an issue with a seller from Bangladesh on Fiverr, but with the live support from Fiverr, the problem was resolved within minutes. The support service was awesome; they understood the client's problem and reacted very quickly. Sara and Nash were absolutely highly motivated support workers, a big credit to them. However, it's unfortunate that such sellers like xoatech are a disgrace and tarnish the good reputation of the Fiverr company."

Satisfied with Fiverr respone I hired a coder through Fiverr that tried to circumvent the process by requesting I put payment directly into a cryptocurrency account. Then he never delivered the goods. However, Fiverr took my complaint seriously and gave me credit for this person's actions. I am satisfied with the outcome and will give Fiverr another chance. I believe there are talented coders available on the website. Just don't let them draw you off the website onto WhatsApp or violate any of the Fiverr rule.
