Not get paid

Days ago, I got a job from a client in Upwork. Later after I finised the work, the client didn't pay me the compensation. Now, the client even does not reply to me. What should I do?

Did you send any money to the client?

If you did not get paid, it is your fault.

 

This is GOOD NEWS!

 

Because this means that YOU HAVE THE POWER.

 

You can learn how to use Upwork correclty.

You can change how you behave in the future.

And you can ensure that this does not happen again.

 

What do you need to do next?

Do NOT try to contact Upwork Customer Support.

 

But you SHOULD figure out what you did wrong.

You may do so by reading more about how to use Upwork properly.

You may read Upwork Help documents.

You may do a search in the Community Forum.

You may POST QUESTIONS in this thread.

 

We will help you, but you need to put the effort to learn more and figure out what your mistakes were.

Are you sure you were hired through Upwork? As in the client made you a hire offer and you accepted it and it shows on your profile and/or under "My Jobs"? Or did you go off platform and agree to do the work?
