Inactive account but want to use email

I don't know what option I touched and my account logged out and didn't let me login again, showing this message in the login page.

 

This email address is associated with an inactive account. Contact Upwork Support if you want to use this email address or register with another email address.

I, indeed, want to use this email to continue working in Upwork. Can you help me solve this?

How can I contact Upwork Support, I looked all over but I couldn't find it

I have just created this accoutn to talk to community members because there are no resources avaiable to talk about any issue. And i am not able to find any article on this, also there is no help available on the internet.

Hi Bojan,

 

I'm also having an issue with the "inactive account" status with my email address. I closed my account before I even finished the initial setup thinking I could come back and complete my account later. Is there any way to reinstate my email address? I had to open this new account in order to contact you, but it's not an email address I use or check regularly.

 

Regards,

Tony

The same problem is faced by my profile and he can't even comment and ask question as it requires upwork account to do that.

 

So, could you please assist in opening the account while he was registering or delete the whole previous account. So, he could also try to re-register it again.

Hi I've got the same problem:
"This email address is associated with an inactive account. Contact Upwork Support if you want to use this email address or register with another email address."
So in order to write here I have created another account. Any sugestions are more than welcome.

Hi Joanne.

 

I had the same issue as Ivalyo. Could you help me ou please? I signed up for Upwork a few months ago but never finished the whole process. Since I've been traveling abroad, I'd like to try again but I can't use my original email. So I made this account to see if I can get some help reinstating my original account.

 

Thanks!

Dear Moderator,

I have attepted to read the message you PM-ed me but the portal requires
that I complete the whole profile before I can use the account. I have even
attepted to do it, but cannot pass the phone verification step (it is
required that it starts with +44 but my UK number is inactive so I am
stuck.

Could you please send me a reactivation link to my original address,
**Edited for Community Guidelines**

Otherwise can we please communicate via email?

Best wishes,
Dagmara **Edited for Community Guidelines**
