Hi I deleted my account a few years ago and was told that the page with my information would be taken off within a few weeks to a month. It has been a YEAR and a half and my profile still comes up when you search my name. I've tried requesting that it be removed here on google search https://www.google.com/webmasters/tools/removals?pli=1
but it just says that the page is STILL ACTIVE. I feel like I was just given a generic response to brush me off, and my page was actually never taken down. This is so frustrating. There was no way to log in to my old accounts, or any support phone numbers to call, I had to create this new account just to post here. Has anyone else had this problem? I'm so frustrated I'm on the verge of pursuing legal action.

Hi Remmy,
I understand how this can be frustrating for you and I'm sorry for the inconvenience. I was unable to locate your old account, and would request that you please send me a private message (by clicking on my name) so that I can assist you further.

Hi Avery I tried to send you a message but I got this error message when I tried to click the button to send you a private message. I'm not sure if you can delete this post after, but here's my old profile. **edited for Community Guidelines**
Thank you very much for reaching out to help.

Hi Remmy,
I would like to confirm that the old account is not yet closed which is why it's still showing in Google search results. On your next reply, kindly confirm that you would like your account closed, and I will do just that.

Hi Remmy,
I have closed your account as requested. I have also requested Google to de-index your profile link from their search results so that it doesn't show up anymore. Please know that it may take some time for Google to de-index your profile link.
As a gentle reminder, please close this account you are posting from to comply with the Upwork Terms of Service. Thank you!

Hi Avey,
I have the same problem too with my other account. I wasn't able to log in with that account because I wasn't able to remember my log in credentials. So, I get back to my old account. I deleted the other but still it shows up to search results.

Goran V,
As, I read your message. you mentained "Opening more than one account is a serious violation of our TOS" If someone lost his/ her old id then how they can reach customer support they need the upwork profile to communicate. Please guide me on this I am new on upwork.
Second thing is as mentioned ny you: "Once you`re able to log in you will need to close your new account as well"
Does it mean that person has to close both account. But what other option does he have other then creating a new account to reach upwork support.
Thanks.

Hi,
I removed my account and the profile still shows on the search, and I can not log in on that profile as I "removed" it. So I made this account just to remove the old one. Please help me

Hi Avery,
I have the same problem with Remmy. I've already deleted my account way back 1 year ago, but, still when I searched my name, it's still popping out: **Edited for Community Guidelines**
. Please help.
Thanks!

Hi Benjamin,
The profile link you shared is an account different from the one you're reaching out from. As a gentle reminder, having multiple accounts is a serious violation of the Upwork Terms of Service. I will have a Customer Support team member reach out to you directly via a support ticket to assist you further.
Apr 16, 2022 11:53:44 PM by Benjamin B
Hi Luigi,
Do you understand the problem? Do you need me to repeat myself? You should checked the thread first before replying. From there, you can understand the situation better.
Again, let me repeat myself. This is my new account. I've deleted my previous account a year ago but when I searched my name in google online, that (deleted account) pops out. You are not doing your job because why that account still pops out. There is a thread where Avery already resolved that. I hope you have the skill as well to do that.
Thank you.

Hi Benjamin,
Thank you for your message. I see that you are already communicating with the support team via a ticket. One of our team members will reach out to you on the same ticket as soon as possible to assist you further.

Thank you,
