I'm more annoyed by the treatment by Upwork and this is something which may lead me to moving somewhere else.

I agree accounts should be released swiftly after a hold (but usually the hold comes after a request was ignored?)

But I would not do the "If you don't change the way you do business I am leeeeeaaaaving..." threat.

Those are always funny, considering that Upwork has twice as many freelancers as it needs or wants in almost every category.

I have got the hold together with the request. The same happened last month.

The hold was finally removed, after 5 hours.

Not that bad, as it probably didn't affect any of my clients.

Hi, everybody.

Last week I received re-verify mail from upwork, but I don't understand why.

I already have passed video calling and ID verification.

But it need to video call again, and it says need to do for 10 mins.

My English skill is not so good, so I'm worry.

Hope someone to help me.

Thanks.

Re-verify means that you have previously done video verification.

And you are being asked to do so again.

It's NOT A BIG DEAL.

It would be a waste of your time to try to determine why. It could simply be random luck of the draw.

IT IS NOT an English language skills exam.

You won't be speaking English for 10 minutes.

re: "Hope someone to help me."

There is nothing to "help."

Just follow the instructionsn you received and get it over with.

It might be used to verify the English skill which he has set to fluent.

Hi Sergei, 

I have confirmed this with the team and you will need to re-verify your identity. Kindly follow the instructions on the email notification you received to verify your identity. Feel free to follow up on the same ticket thread if you have further questions about the process, and the team will assist you further.

My ID was verified 2 years ago and I have been away from Upwork until now. I am now back and would like to do a video verification. What is the procedure and what do I do? I don't see any link that shows where a video verification could be initiated.

Please help...
