Account on Hold

[Amanda R]

My account has been placed on hold after I uploaded my ID and UpWork was unable to verify it. I was told to contact customer service and am currently stuck in a never ending loop of "FAQ" links. Can anyone advise next steps? Thank you in advance for your help.

I tried to make an offer and the freelancer said my account was on hold. I tried to bot and it said I should have received a notification or email which I did not. I tried to verify my billing info and it said to contact customer support. Can anyone help?
