Hi.

 

Thanks for your message.

 

But when I would like to upgrade my profile to freelancer pulse, it shows me "You need to verify your identity to complete the operation. To verify your identity please click here" message. What should I do?

Hi Behnam,

 

Could you try to clear your cache and cookies? You can also click on the green hyperlink to complete the verification process.
If you're still experiencing any problems after this, let me know. Thank you.

Thank you for your message. I checked and it looks like your account has already been accepted. It doesn't look like you are required to complete any verification at the moment. The team will let you know if there is a need for any verification in the future. You should still be able to send proposals to jobs on the general marketplace.
