Hi Daniel,

 

I'm sorry for the trouble you had. Could you please try to use a different browser or clear your cache and cookies? If the issue persists, please let us know. Thank you!

Hello Joanne,

 

Thanks a lot for the response, although the issue still persists after trying to use a different browser or clearing my cache and cookies. (Ive also tried https://upwork.com/clearcookies)

 

I've attached an image of the issue below

 

The same error is what I get when trying to create the contract using upwork's android app. Seems it's not a browser's issue if it spans through both the web and android app. It's a technical issue that requires sorting on your end.

 

Any sort of help will be highly appreciated Joanne.

Hello, Joanne Marie P

Please check, I have sent you a PM.

Thank you.

Hi Khairuzzaman,


Could you please ask the client to reach out to us here or ask them for a permission so that we can reach out to them directly and assist them further with the contract? If they have chosen the second option, please share reach out to me via PM once your client has agreed. Thank you.

I have been experiencing same issue for almost a week now.

It's really frustrating as I had planned to bring my clients from facebook to use upwork direct contract as against paypal which easily works for my facebook gig.

But they wait for me to send them a direct link, I keep giving excuses and it makes me look really unseriuos

Reopening this thread, I'm also having the same issue. Browser and cache clearing didn't work. I don't see any other solutions or instructions listed here. Was the issue investigated and are there any recommended solutions?

Hi Revathi,

 

At this time, Direct Contracts are only for clients without an Upwork account. Since you already have your Upwork account, you can not use Direct Contracts.

 

Thank you!
