Account Suspended

Please resolve my issue !!
I am not able to submit proposals as it says "you can't submit a proposal because your account is suspended.".
However, when I submitted an appeal to unsuspend my account they responded that my account is not suspended. Please resolve my issue.
I'm not getting a proper support on this. I've been only asked to clear cache & cookies & I've tried it several times but doesn't work. Also, the same issue persists on mobile app. There must be a technical issue then. Please investigate this matter.

Thank you!

Hi Hassaan,

 

If the action buttons that you usually use are grayed out, the Trust & Safety team may have suspended your account. In that case, you will have received a support ticket with an email notification about the action on your account. Please refer to your ticket on this page and reply to the email if you have any questions for the team.

Pau, did you try a different browser? or clear the cookies of the browsers and then try. I hope this problem will sort it out. 

Otherwise, connect with the Upwork support team. They will help you in this regard.

Be aware guys , Some bogus client who advertise their project on Facebook or messenger are scammers / fraudsters. They will asked your email address and password to log in to your account and steal your Up work platform. I was victimized by these scammers and I made a complaint just to lift up my suspension on upwork platform. I'm waiting for a decision. Hopefully my Upwork platform will be unblock so that I can work on it.

Hi Shan,

 

I'm afraid that we won't be able to discuss the status of another user's account for privacy and security reasons. However, rest assured that decisions to suspend a user's account are not taken lightly and without fully investigating for TOS violations.
Please, refer to this help article for general reasons why our Trust & Safety team may take action on an account.

I can't seem to get this resolved.

 

Your financial account - has been suspended due to issues with payment methods on file. Please update payment methods to restore full functionality to your account.

 

It doesn't specify which payment method is the problem so I am unable to resolve it.

 

Please advise.

Hi,

I was suspended after disputing payment for a job posted under my fathers Upwork account that was approved by one of my client accounts. This happened in 2022. I have since updated my billing info and told the credit card company and PayPal to resolve the incident on their end as I will pay the bill for my father. It's been 2 weeks since I cleared the dispute status and my Upwork client accounts are still showing the same error.

 

can someone please look into my case?

Hi, 

I havent been able to access my account for the past week. 

My old email address was hacked. I answered all the security questions and forwarded my Passport. 

Does Upwork operate on weekends? Also, I was told I'd get an answer in 10 hours on wednesday and took 3 days to respond from initial email sent, gave my boss that timeline and because I havent logged in yet, they closed the contract. 

Please help to get this sorted by today! I'm losing out in work and have money stuck in upwork because of this 

 

You cannot. Support ticket, an week to answer. No other ways now.
