Client Wants money back

[dd7ccecf]

Hi, I am new to Upwork. I recently did work for a client in Poland. He asked me to train a model. After labeling the data I talked to him and told him that the data is quite poor and accuracy would be low. He canceled the contract and refuses to pay for labeling data. I raised a dispute and now he is threatening to sue me. Should I worry? What should I do? He is asking me to cancel the dispute otherwise he will sue me.

Contract was for $150.

Hello Pradeep!

good day! I am having a similar concern about a client wanting to seek legal advise against me regarding a payment that was issued to my bank. The client said that he wants refund for the money that was deposited in my account. My client is from the US and said that he get in touch with a legal counsel in our city in the philippines

Hi Nathaniel,

I checked your account and I do not see any active contract on your Upwork profile. If this is related to the last ended contract, I advise you to communicate with your client and reach a mutual agreement. It is important to maintain a good relationship with your clients and resolve any issues amicably. You can refer to this help page for more information.

Sure. I will

I request Upwork not to share any personal information with such persons.

Noone will sue for $150. Don't worry. It's a bluff.

I don't think you should worry. Suing you would cost them a lot of time, money, and effort. I think they're letting their emotions get the best of them!
