Have to start a very urgent project today and Upwork is like this for HOURS. The freelancer I'm trying to hire told me he has the same issues (before we were disconnected permanently). Tried different browsers, same thing exactly. I'm doing it on a desktop. Please fix as soon as possible.

I obviously did that multiple times, as well as changing the browser, cleaning cookies, and relaunching everything. Any other suggestions?

Yes, I have read the memo. Is there any kind of estimate when it will be repaired? There are so few real clients here, it is a shame we can't talk to them.

No, this is squarely on Upwork. Another great service, and I like how they hide the subject.

When I try to open the review a customer left for me I get "Sorry, something went wrong. Please try again or contact support ." after clearing my cache or changing browsers and computers.

 

It's critical for me to have my first review posted - can you check why this is happening? I get the same issue when trying to view my feedback requiest from messages between the customer and myself.

Upwork had a real live client - but I can't talk to them. I know you are working on it, but you must have an estimated time of correction. There are so few real clients here, and I just lost one.

 

Updated: it's back, client gone.

It's pathetic how often I see that red "connecting to server" on the messages function.
