How do I delete my messages?

Hi Jason, 

You should be able to see the button by hovering your pointer somewhere under the time.

It's totally an oudated system.  I hope they update it soon.

Hi Valeria!

I guess, you can no longer delete a message once the recepient has read it? Been trying to delete a message I missent to a different client, but can no longer do it. Is there another way? Thanks!

Hi Marie,

You will be able to delete/edit messages only 1 hour after you have sent the message. After one hour has passed this options wont be available to you, thank you!

I hid some of my messages, but one does not even have the option to hide it! It really shouldn't be this hard to hide / delete messages from an inbox...

I'm having the same problem as the others. One of my messages doesn't have the time stamp of the three dots, no matter how long or where I hover the mouse. Can Upwork please upgrad this so we can delete unwanted messages? Thank you.

Hi Linda,

You will be able to delete/edit messages only 1 hour after you have sent the message. If this option is not available to you in the first hour let us know here or contact our customer support directly, thank you!

Goran, thank you for your reply. I realized I'm talking about deleting an entire interview. I'll look in the forum to see if this has been asked.

Why in the hell I can't delete other people's messages permanently from my screen, it's CRAZY!

Hi Salah, 

Are you trying to delete your messages from a certain room in your Message page? Or are you trying to block users from messaging you?
