Client Not issuing payment

[hamad_econ]

I've work for a client now he is not accepting my milestone , and not willing to give even a penny.

I think the community should do something for this.

I am really disappointed.

Thanks

Did the client request changes without stating the reasons?

Or is he/she not responding after you sumbitted your work?

I assume that is the same client who only funded $ 5 for a $ 25 job!?

Has the client actually said that he won't pay anything?

Exactly Petra!

 First he says that send me complete website in zip file i will check and release payment , then after 14 revisions and completing every pixel of the work.

He is now not responding , its really hurts a freelancer when you face a scam like this 😞

The $ 5 in Escrow will be released to you 14 days after you submitted via the “submit work and request payment” function. Just leave the client alone and wait. Do not click on “resubmit” because that starts the 14 days again from day 1. 

In future only work on FULLY FUNDED milestones.

Hi Hamad, 

I checked your contract and can see that the client has funded the milestone. Please know that once you have submitted work via the contract page, your client has 14-days to review the work submitted. During this time, he may choose to release the amount in escrow, or may ask for a revision of the submitted work. If your client doesn't come back to you in 14-days, the money in escrow will automatically be paid to your account. 

I would suggest that you refrain from resubmitting the work, and requesting to be paid, because it resets the 14-day clock. 

Let me know if you have other questions.
