Client is not responding

Hi,

I recently got a job on Upwork. Now after sending the 2nd draft to the client, the client is now not responding. It's almost 2 days, I understand the client might have an emergency or they are busy so I am willing to wait a week for their response. But what If the client doesn't respond even after a week. What step should I take? This is my 1st job at Upwork. So that's why I don't know what to do. Any help would be appreciated. 

Thanks

Clients not responding is not new. If you work the system correctly, it won't be a problem. If this is an hourly project, you will be paid for the work you've done to date. If this is a fixed-price project and the client has funded the milestone appropriately, submit via the submission tool and your funds will be released in 14 days automatically. Ta-da!

 

I agree it's annoying for clients not to respond (I have quite a few) but if they pay well and according to the system (funding prior to be starting on a milestone), I'm ok with it.

Hi Suzanne,

 

Thank you for reaching out to us. I checked but I could not replicate the issue you experience. Could you please share a screenshot of the error message from your end so that we can look into this further and assist you accordingly?

Even adtwe switching to plus, no client even responds and connents not only go futile, a sense of frustration prevails. Thete must be a some policy update for clients
