Deleting a client account

 Hi, 

 

How do I delete the client account on my Upwork.

 

Thanks!

ACCEPTED SOLUTION

Hi Jasmin,

 

If you need to close your client account only, while keeping your freelancer account, we can process that for you. Here’s how you can reach Upwork 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.

You can also post your request on this thread and we'll be happy to assist you.

 

Thank you!

Hi Chris,

 

Thank you for following up. I see that you still have an active contract with this client. Feel free to connect with your client to clarify this and request removal from their team. 

 

Thank you,

Greetings.

I have signed up as client account some years ago when I was young just from my curiosity.

But while working on many development project, I have decided to work as freelancer on this platform, so I had to create new account as developer on my client account page.

Is there any way to remove my client account on this platform? because I want to make my pure developer profile on Upwork , not linked with Client account.

I am new to this and appreciate your efforts for helping my problem in advance.

Thanks.

Hi Nico,

 

Thank you for reaching out to us. We certainly understand your concern and that can be arranged. I took the liberty of closing your client profile from your account and kept your freelancer profile active. Let us know if you need further assistance.

Hello Arjay M, I am sending this message because I can client account on my profile still.

It seems it is still active and my account showing both.

Kindly remove the client profile, because I want to build my profile as freelancer.

That client acccount was made from my curiousity when I was young.

Let me know once you done.

Thanks again.

Oh, sorry, it was done, I did not refresh and clear my site cookies.

Let me ask lastly, can I recreate client profile when I need later and this will affect to my account or profile as freelancer?

Thanks.

Hi Nico,

 

If you'd like to reopen your client account you'll need to reach out to support in order to make that request. Your client profile has no influence on your freelancer profile.

I followed the guidelines from the non-human support "chat" and still get an "unable to close your account" error message.  I'm then told to reach out directly to support but there is no mechanism in place to do that.  If some sort of human admin. reads this, can you please close/delete my account.  Thanks!

Hello,

I have accidentally created two accounts on Upwork, without knowing it is against the terms of service. I am sorry for that. I have only baraley used the other account. Can you please close the other account registered on the email of **Edited for Community Guidelines**, there are no longer any problems. And can I please keep the account I am writing from. I really don't want to lose this account as well.

Thank you.

Hi Rudolph,

 

We saw your post in the community and converted it into a support ticket to give it the attention it deserves. That's correct! Users are only allowed to have one account and it's against Upwork's TOS to have multiple ones. However, I see that you created a client profile. Please be aware that you can be a freelancer and a client with just having a single account. You will use the same account to log in to Upwork but will have separate user profiles. You will be able to easily switch between them as needed.

 

Feel free to check this help article for more information about how to be a client and a freelancer. Rest assured that one of our agents will be reaching out to you here with further assistance on your concern.
