Once again I have had to verify my identity, which I don't mind and this happens every month or two. In each previous instance, there was simply a "restriction" that stayed in place until the usual verification steps were complete (ID upload/Bank Statement/Video). This time, however, a suspension was listed along with verification request. I complete those steps within an hour of the request as usual.
I got the notification that the verification was completed and accepted (as usual), however, there is still a suspension with no listed reason. I have already sent a ticket, the only thing they say is "yes it's verified, but we need research".
When I ask about the reason for the suspension or what needs to be researched I get stonewalled.
Solved! Go to Solution.

Thank you for your reply and additional stonewalling. My post here and also my question in the ticket everyone is avoiding is WHY is there a suspension. All suspensions have a reason, it is common policy to inform an account holder of the reason.

I am not sure what to do, after posting here, "Grace" sent me a message via the ticket/email system, which I replied to, then nothing. Today I asked for an update and a completely new person asked the exact same question (obviously cut and paste), without even bothering to see that I was already asked and answered the exact same question!. Of course, again there is no one to be found and I am getting very frustrated. Anyone who is able to view the ticket ( #26196297), can see the whole conversation thread, I am not sure why they don't actually ready anything before sending a canned reply.

The contractor I used was suspend for all new work and I want to know why. I might not trust her anymore but need to know what happened from upworks side.

They won't tell you why a freelancer was suspended.

that does not make me feel good about continuing to use this freelancer... if she got suspended then something is not right. Why can they continue to work on existing contracts? but not new ones?
