Funny how people always want to convince Upwork to change their policies in such a way that by complete coincidence just happens to benefit THEM... Extra points for suggesting extra criteria that serve as a disadvantage for their competitors....

It’s not funny at all, because it’s just your assumption while the truth is I am not here for myself, I am here for those freelancers who are struggling since long time for a big budget job but they could not get the chance because they are not lucky like you guys but they has 2 times much skills and experience even they are suffering and you guys are making your way clean to avoid my points, because there could be minimal competition.

On the other side, I was talking about the specific category (web, mobile and software dev) because the criteria in that category was much higher than yours (3 times more). You can be happy because the standards in your category are quite good but it does not means that you will criticise like above (which is really looking funny).

Welcome Nicola,
I believe in Upwork that if my suggestions are valid they will keep my words as serious as they have done in the past.
Thanks with best regards,

Today, I have achieved all the requirements/qualifications to get the Top Rated Plus badge.
When it will be shown on my profile? and should I wait for the next JSS update?

Thanks,

Hi Sayyed,

Once you become eligible for the Top Rated Plus badge, please allow 48 to 72  hours for the badge to be added to your profile.

Thank you!

Hello!

I have seen by chance that the "Top Rated Plus" badge is disappeared from my Upwork profile. However, I see it when I have been signed in!

To be clear, I see the "Top Rated Plus" badge at my profile from my side, but when I visit my profile without sign in I just see the "Top Rated" badge NOT the "Top Rated Plus" badge! 

Does that make sense? I need your help to solve the issue

Thanks in advance,

Naseem
