Hi Manish, and Nickolay,

I'm sorry to hear about your troubles while trying to close the agency. I escalated the error with the team and both of you can expect a support ticket created very soon in order to investigate this further.

Manish, I went ahead and closed your agency.

Nickolay, in order to close your agency, you need to change your status from Exclusive to Non-Exclusive. To update your status, please switch to your agency profile and go to Settings > Members & Permissions. On the page, you should be able to see a link saying 'Exclusive' as shown in this screenshot. Click on it and a popup will open. From there, you can update the status by selecting 'Non-Exclusive' in the 'Agency Freelancer' dropdown as shown in this screenshot. Once you are done with that, you can let us know here so that we can go ahead and close your agency.

Thank you.

Hello,

I am having a similar problem where I am unable to close my newly formed agency despite no active contracts/proposals/payments. I have read the support article on closing an agency and still have not found success, and would like to submit a help ticket.

I would like to close my agency only and keep my active freelancer profile. 

Thank you!

I have same problem. I did all the pre required steps to closed my agency , but not able to do.

I want to remove my agency account but unable to do so, it says contact support to close an agency.

I think it will unintentionally confuse my clients/buyers
as I am just recently working by myself and want to get it removed from the profile

Thanks

Hello,

I am having a similar problem as Lillian. I can't close my agency despite no active contracts/proposals/payments. I have read the support article on closing an agency and still have not found success, and would like to submit a help ticket.

Thank you!

Hello,

I have a problem, I can't close my agency despite no active contracts/offers/payments. I have read the support article about closing an agency, but have never been successful and would like to submit an application.

When I confirm to close the agency, I get an error. I attached a screenshot of the error in the file.

I would like to close just my agency and keep my active freelancer profile.

Thank you!

Hello Alexandra B,
Hope you are doing well, I am new to the forum. I saw a post you made last year when you were trying to deactivate your agency account. Can you tell me why or for what reason you are canceling your agency account?

I was thinking of starting an agency account. So want to take the experience.+
Thank you

Hello. I can't close my agency too. I'm getting this error:

Exception occurred Failed to parse ODS response: '{"request":"GET \/ods\/offer\/list_contractor\/26371249\/20.json","error":null,"error_code":0,"warning":null,"start_time":1648821192346,"elapsed":0,"no_cache":false,"result":{"data":{"0": .....

It's much longer than this, but I shortened it in case the payload contains sensitive info.

Hello,

The agency's balance will be trasfered to my freelancer's balance when closed?

[egaruth]

Hi Hamda,

I am sorry for the late response. I checked and can confirm that by design funds from an agency account will not be transferred to your freelancer account if it is closed. Please withdraw all funds from your agency balance before closing your agency profile. 

Thank you,
