a client asked me to stop the time log and continue working on the project

[#1]

Hi,
I recently accepted a job with an hourly rate of $12.8. Before finalizing the contract, the client asked for an estimate of how many hours the project would take.

At that time, I estimated it would range from 11 to 15 hours. However, as I've been working on the project, I've realized that it involves a lot more detail than I initially thought, and I've already worked for 11 hours.

The client has asked me to stop the time tracker at 15 hours and continue working on the project, as this was the estimate I provided.

What should I do in this case?

Your choice. You able to complete works for free but not must. As for me, i i promiced to do it for 15 then i will do for 15. Thats why i never promice 15 if unsure. 

Speak with client, explain, reach agreement.

Do whatever you feel like.

I suggest you do it within 15 hours since that's the upper limit of the quote you gave. But feel free to follow your guts.
