I am not receiving the verification email and hence cannot set up my profile

[bhargav-s-desai]

I've made an account with Upwork and I am stuck at the verification of my email step because I am not recieving any verification mails. I've tried for hours on end but even after requesting multiple resends, the mail just won't come. 

I've checked the junk folder and the spam folder and contact Gmail support too, and they tell me the mail never reached their servers. 

Can somebody help me resolve this issue please!

Hi Akshay,

Just to confirm, did you checked your junk and spam folders? Thank you.

Hi,

I am having the same problem. I cannot see my verification email even after resending so many times. I have checked my spam and junk folders but it's not there. Please can somebody help me?

Hi Ifreke,

Could you please try resending the email one more time? Let me know if you still don't receive the email.

Thank you.

[da777957]

Hi Aleksandra,

I just did but I still have not received it.

[da777957]

So sorry for the wrong spelling of your name Aleksandar.

[AleksandarD]

Hi Ifreke,

No problems for the name spelling 

One of our agents will be reaching out to you directly via a support ticket to assist you further with the verification email.

Thank you.

It's all good now. Thanks Aleksandar!

Maybe try disabling your adblocker? Mine thought the Upwork email verification scripts were ad scripts and disabled them.

Same issue  here. Tried 4 times already in the last 2 weeks. No email

Hi Dawid,

I checked and the verification email was sent to your email successfully. Make sure you’ve entered the email address correctly and lastly use the option to change the email address you provided if you are still having issues. Afterwards, please resend the email one more time, check your inbox and spam folder, check the settings for your email provider and make sure emails from Upwork aren’t being blocked. 

Let us know if you received the confirmation email.

Thank you!

Hi Mohamed,

I checked your account and it looks like it doesn't need further verification just yet. Please note that you will not be able to initiate the identity verification yourself and it cannot be requested. If the team finds the need for you to do it, you will receive an email detailing the instructions on how to complete your verification. You may want to check this help article for more information. 

[bd266e92]

I am trying to change my email to my agency assigned email and it won't change. I have verification request pending now

[ArjayM]

Hi Mohamed,

I can confirm that your request has been escalated to the appropriate team and a support ticket has been set up. Please allow our team time to review and expect an update here once done. Thank you!

hi, i am not receiving verification email from upwork. I have signed up. Please help.

[LuiggiR]

Hi Milan,

It doesn't look like you need to verify your account yet. The team will let you know if there is a need for any verification in the future. Please know that verification cannot be requested, but is slowly being rolled out to users of Upwork. If the team finds the need to verify your account, you will be notified through an email, or through a notification in your account with more information on how you can complete the verification process.

[raza_aziz]

I cannot get my account verified. It is an old account but I have started using it now. I am not recieving any verification email from upwork. Kindly tell me what is the issue on my behalf although my profile is 100% complete.

[LuiggiR]

Hi Raza,

It doesn't look like you need to verify your account yet. The team will let you know if there is a need for any verification in the future. Please know that verification cannot be requested. If the team finds the need to verify your account, you will be notified through an email, or through a notification in your account with more information on how you can complete the verification process.

[raza_aziz]

But how am I supposed to find a job without verified profile?

[ArjayM]

Hi Raza,

I can confirm that there's no restriction on your account so you can definitely submit proposals to potential clients even without having the ID Verification Badge. As Luiggi mentioned, if the team finds the need for you to verify, you will receive an email detailing the instructions on how to complete the process. You may want to check this help article for more information.
