It means the client's account is suspended at the moment and you can not accept their offer or do any work for them until (if) it is resolved.

It is most likely a temporary thing Ana, there is just some problem with their account.  I generally guess it is a problem with their payment method.

I would message the client and say something innocent like "It looks like UpWork is not letting me accept the offer at this time.  They said it has to do with how your account is setup."

how to solved this problems ?

The client needs to do something about his payment method. Until then, do nothing.

Hi Ahmad,

We truly appreciate you reaching out to us here on behalf of your client. However, we are unable to discuss details of another user's account with you for privacy reasons. We hope you understand. Please check this help article for more information about the most common reasons for account holds. 

I have checked your account and it looks like you still need to complete your ID verification. You can start the process by clicking "Get Started" once you're logged in.

Hi Mr.Arjay 

Yes, I told the client that he need to contact the site's support, and after that, the problem had been solved 🙂

Thank you I really appreciate your help.

I cannot accept a job offer from a client. It says client account on temporary hold. Perhaps because the client sent his contact number on messages because he didnt know. However I told him to keep communication on upwork. Please respond urgently

[#10]

Hi Haris,

I'm afraid that we can't discuss the details of another user's account for privacy reasons. Your client should've received a communication from Upwork informing them of their account status and they'll work with the relevant team to resolve their issue.

Hi ! I am the client, I don't understand the probleme ? Especially that I receive an email confirming the payment for this ! Details of the email below, so I really dont understand the problem ?

Hi Clemence,

A payment of 89.19 EUR ($84.00) was applied to **Edited for Community Guidelines** financial account.

If your total bill is over 135,000.00 USD, your payments will show up as separate transactions.

[#17]

Hi Clemence,

I have checked and can confirm that there is no restriction on your client account. The payment you're looking at is a funding request for a milestone on a Fixed Price contract. You may want to check your Transaction History on your client profile for more details.

Hello, I want to accept the proposal sent by my client, but I keep seeing the following message: "This client's account is on a temporary hold. Once the issue is resolved, you can accept their offer." I have tried accepting the offer from different browsers, incognito mode, my Android phone, and I cleared the cache, but nothing works. My client has sent the proposal three times, and the problem persists every time. I would appreciate your help in finding a solution to this issue.
