Can't submit proposals.

[#1]

I can't submit any more proposals. I have 26 remaining connects. The 'submit a proposal' is grayed out and unresponsive.

Hi Abul Hasnat Mohamm,

If you need more Connects to submit a proposal, you will have to purchase them from your account. Connects are not sold individually, but bundles begin at $1.50 for 10 Connects. Regardless of which bundle you choose, all Connects are priced at $0.15 apiece. Here are your bundle options:

10 for $1.50

20 for $3

40 for $6

60 for $9

80 for $12

This can vary based on your location, but all Upwork users will be able to purchase Connects with a credit card or prepaid card. If you aren’t able to use a credit card or prepaid card or you don’t have an Upwork balance, in many cases you’ll be able to use PayPal. To see the options available to you, click here.

Hi Janiero,

I have checked your account and it looks like you are an exclusive member of an agency. Please note that Agency members who are exclusive work on Upwork only as part of their agency. This is the most common type of agency relationship. Their profile and proposals are branded with the agency to make the agency’s part in the work relationship clear to clients. All contract payments are paid out to the agency. Exclusive members don’t have the option to submit proposals as an individual and all their proposals are submitted as members of the agency. Please check this help article for more details.

Hi,

Can you help me solving this problem of mine. When I am submitting porposals this popped-out (To submit a proposal to this job, contact your manager about buying additional Connects), (These Connects transactions are from your freelancer activity. Since you are now exclusively an agency contractor, you can only view them). 

The problem is I don't have contacts in the agency anymore. 

Thanks in advance.

Lovely

Hi Lovely, 

You are an exclusive member of your team's agency. Agency members can submit proposals, drawing from the agency's collective balance of Connects. This means that if your agency doesn't have enough Connects, the agency's Business Manager will need to purchase additional Connects for the agency. Please contact your agency's Business Manager directly to be able to proceed with sending a proposal for the job you're interested in. Note that since you are an exclusive member of your agency, the contract will be associated with your agency.

Ok I want to share my experience on this and I just found out today, I chatted with 3 agents thanks to all the help but the problem was not solved. and i just found out myself. I noticed that the plugin I'm using like antivirus (I dont want to name it but it is from Chrome web store that caused this problem) and I dont know why.  When I uninstalled it and tadaaaahhhh I can now submit proposals!!

[#20]
