Hi

I have been trying to complete identity video verification since 22nd May and have until 29th - In 3 days time and then I cannot apply for opportunities.

When I click on START CHAT it just takes me back to my profile page.

PLEASE could someone help with this. I am paying to use UpWork and so far, not enjoying the frustration!!

 

Thank you
