Hello! I have the same problem. I have accidentally closed my agency account. My first goal was changing agency name, but I didn't find the way to do it, so I decided to close my current agency account and then create a new one. Now I do not have access to my previous as well as I do not have a possibility to create a new one. What should I do in this situation?

Hi Nikolay, I'm facing the same issue as well.

Hi Rakesh,

We appreciate you reaching out to us. Arjay here stepping in for Nikolai. I have checked your account and it looks like you already have an Agency that's just been closed, would you like us to reopen the same agency account for you?

I'm having the same problem here. Could someone add the agency option to my profile from the Upwork team?

Hi Serge,

You need to update your address before you can create a new Freelancer account. You can do this in Settings > My Info > Company contacts. Once you have a freelancer account to function as the Agency Owner, you should be able to create the Agency account.

Hello, I can't create Agenecy too, what should I do?

Hi Oleksandr,

Thank you for reaching out to us. If you don’t have the option to create an Agency, it’s generally because you already have an Agency that is now closed. Please know that you can only “own” one agency on Upwork. You won’t be able to make another one.

However, if you want, we can restore your agency account. How do I reach a human in customer support?

1. Please visit Contact Support and click the ‘Chat with Upwork' button.
2. Type a question or topic and select ‘Send’. The bot will find relevant Help articles for you.
3. The chatbot will ask you to confirm if you need additional help. If you confirm that you need additional help, you will be asked to confirm the account type you need help with.
4. From there, the support options available to you will be listed. Select either of the options to be able to contact the Upwork Support Team.

[#17]

Yes, I confirm. Please delete it and provide me possibility to open another one.

Hi Oleksandr,

Thank you for following up. I would like to clarify that we can only restore the account you closed. You won't be able to create a new account. If you want to restore the account you closed please let us know and we will be happy to assist you further. 

[#19]

If I will be still able to rename it then ok.

[#20]

Hi.

When will you restore the account?

[#21]

Hi Oleksandr,

Thank you for reaching out to us. I shared your request with our team and one of our agents will reach out to you as soon as possible via a support ticket to assist you in restoring your your agency profile.
