Started creating an account using wrong country- now cannot put in correct phone number to verify

[Emika I]

I am an American temporarily living in Malaysia. When I created my account, I set the US as my country. I realized once I saw that Upwork requires my address and phone number to create my profile that I should have put Malaysia. However, I cannot verify my phone number as it autopopulates the country code when I type in my phone number so I cannot edit my country. I also cannot go back to the previous page to change my country. How can I rectify this and switch my account to Malaysia?

Hi Lum,

Can you confirm what country you`re trying to list on your profile? Thank you.

[lumbulliqi]

Yes, I am trying to list Kosovo or Albania.

Hi Lum, 

What country are you located in at the moment? Please keep in mind that posting misleading information on your profile is a violation of our TOS. If you`re relocating in the future you will also need to update your address, thank you.

My location is Kosovo exactly.

Hi Lum,

At the moment you can't choose Kosovo as it is not on our list of countries, thank you.

Can I choose Albania, Sir?
