Hello, I had an order from a client, I accepted an offer and completed the order, after I sent the completed work, the client stopped responding to my messages, and only after 19 days I received payment. And I have this situation again, I was talking to the customer and he responded quickly, but after I sent him the work he also stopped responding to my messages.

If you are getting paid automatically, I do not see what the problem is.

For, me the issue would be the additional 2 weeks before I receive payment.

It is very important to understand how payments work on fixed price and hourly contracts. No need to contact the client if you have a contract and submit the work properly. On fixed price contract, clients have 14 days to review. If they don't do anything, the amount goes automatically in the 5-day security period the next day.
14+5=19

Damir,
Once you submit the work, the client has 14 days to either ask for a revision or approve, otherwise Upwork automatically releases the payment. Did you have any other questiions? Have a great day!

re: "What can I do about it?"
You are asking what you can do about Damir's payment?
You can not do anything.
