Thank you for your response. I cannot log-in to the Zendesk with my normal username / email along with my normal password. I would love to access the solution. I continue to be frustrated by Upwork and wonder what you do with the % of my earnings that you take. Thank you for your attention.

The client sent me an offer of $100 and i went to the offer page to accept it, Unexpectedly the message that was brought up is That "Your Client account is temporarily on hold, I need to wait till the issue is resoled" What can be the solution for this?

I really need to know the reason why this is happening

Hello everyone,

 

As far as I am concerned I am having similar problems. I got hired by the client, signed a privacy contract then I got no message from him. I  became private and I can't change it to public I get an error message "An error has occurred please try again later". Any ideas?

 

Thanks
