I've been Top Rated for a month, why are the weeks not changing

I've gone back to sitting at a 90% Top Rated status for a month now (from 88% before) and the Top Rated weeks went from sitting at 5 weeks last month to 4 weeks all this month. Wouldn't that change at lease one week to start adding up again?

 

Thank you

Hi Andrea, could you please help me too. My top rated eligibility weeks didn't update this week. I want to know if there is any criteria I didn't match or the update delayed or if anything else? Thank you.

Hi Goran, could you please check my account? The top rated eligibility weeks counter didn't go up this week, want to know why? Thank you.

Hello ,

 

I have an issue with my top rated counted weeks this Saturday, it didn't update. I am completely aware of the 16 weeks window and how it counts. and I have all the requirements for it to update. and it was updated last week.

 

can someone check on my profile please and let me know if it's just an issue with the server or something else? 

please note that I tried different devices and browsers.

Unless they also had Rising Talent badge before getting JSS, which is the same as having JSS above 90%, than the number would be higher.

Yeah, sadly it says something else on my profile with the exact stats as shown above.

Either we are dumb and can't understand the system - or there is a bug that the community managers are not aware of, because they keep denying this topic to everyone saying " everything is in order ".

I know what you're referring to, mods come across the same questions every day and may habitually add a template answer without checking the details. There is a bug, and you're definitely not dumb. However, you should know JSS 90%+ is not the only requirement for eligible week, the earnings need to be above 1k for the past 12 months. So if during week 1 and week 2 you had JSS above 90% but earnings were below 1k, those weeks would be red.

Hi Riard,

 

I checked and it looks like you have submitted a support ticket already. You can check the ticket here

Hey Riard and Tetevik, I actually have an open ticket with the Upwork support team about this issue. and they admitted there is something wrong with my eligible weeks count. they actually admitted on 3 Feb that my eligible weeks are 6 weeks out of 16. not 4 like my stats shows. since then they escalated my ticket to the developer team members. which didn't help at all yet.

 

According to what they mentioned. I should have 8 eligible weeks today. but I am still stuck on 4. which is very frustrating. they don't even mention when it will be fixed. or explain how the issue is going to us. which I believe is one of our rights to know. because I give so much effort on this platform to achieve such things.

 

quick note : my JSS has increased even more during that time. from 90% to 94% and still no luck to get my eligible weeks counted.

Same here, tomorrow it will be the 14th eligible week, and I'm still stuck at 10. Can't get the top rated badge, can't get any estimate at all when this issue will be fixed, and just soaking in frustration!! It's clear the real number is stored somewhere, why can't they use that to award top rated badges instead of the faulty number.

Hi Tatevik,

 

I am sorry for the frustration this has caused. I shared your report with the team handling your case and one of our agents will follow up with you on your support ticket as soon as possible to assist you further.

Hello, I am just wondering why my top rated eligible weeks count did not increase this week. I was able to maintain 100٪ JSS so far. Appreciate your help!

Hi Laurie,

 

I'm sorry for the inconvenience this has caused. I can confirm this is a known issue and the team is working on resolving it as soon as possible. We'll share an update once the issue is fixed.

No, you don't. Your eligible weeks will go down because your JSS is (considerably) below 90% so no weeks you are adding to the 16 weel window are eligible weeks.

Hi Andrea, 

 

I have an issue with my top rated counted weeks. I have JSS 98% and it was 90% and more from the day when Top rated eligible weeks starts till now. But the problem is that number of weeks is 4 and hasn't changed for a few weeks. Please check my profile and let me know is there some technical problems or I some other criteria that I didn't taken in account? Thank you in advance.

Seems like no one is working on it and it is not in your priority list. It is an urgent issue and should be resolved ASAP. But it is pending for last 3 weeks. I should get Top Rated status but I do not have it beause of this bug in Upwork. Why it is so hard for you to fix?

Hello,

I'm eligible for Top-Rated last 6 weeks. In my stats, it's counted for 5 weeks. Last week not updated on my stats. My job success score is 100% and my last 6 months' earnings are more than 2K. Is there anything that I'm not eligible for last week? Please can anyone inform me what actually happened?

Thank you

Some freelancers are impacted by an issue, the eligibility weeks didn't update for some, Upwork is aware of this and is trying to fix it.

 

However, you should also know while every new eligible week adds to the counter, every old eligible week gets removed as well. So if you were eligible this week, but you were also eligible 17 weeks ago, your calculation will be +1-1=0 , the counter won't change.

Thank you for your information. Maybe this could be an issue that you have stated first. And also thank you for the last information. But I'm totally new eligible for the last 6 weeks. So no chance of minus. 

It's updated now. it was stuck at 5. Today it's turned into 9. Thank you

Hi Pradeep,

Thanks you very much for your explanation, I understand the concept. I didn't meet the requirement "JSS 90+ or Rising Talent" until end of 2021 then I got Rising Talent badge and 1 week after I got 100% JSS, when I got Rising Talent it started counting weeks but it stopped on 4. Since I got my JSS It hasn't dropped under 100%. I don't understand what requirement I don't meet for top rated. 

There is some bug, mine is stuck on 10 for the past 2 weeks, don't know why it's taking so long to fix it.

My top rated eligible weeks rose to 12 of 16 and then suddenly stopped. It is not rising to 13 of 16 from atleast 2 weeks, given I got a 100% job success.
