Chatting

Hi
A client indicates that
"For more information contact me at chat."
On his job definition. I can not see his username at the "about client" section. How can I access the clients username for chatting.

It's a ToS violation to communicate with a prospective client using channels other than UW before a contract is in place. Many clients are unaware of this policy. A few (IME) are aware but don't care. It's pretty much on us FLs to hold the line and protect ourselves as we see fit.

Hi Huseyin,

 

In cases like this, we encourage you to let us know if a TOS violation has happened by using the “Flag as Inappropriate” option throughout the platform. You can learn more about user reporting here.

 

Thank you!
