Hi Jigar,

 

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.

Hello, I bought the connects, and out of the blue I got the notification that “primary billing is on hold” and that “financial transactions have been limited”.
I removed my card and tried again but got an email saying my account was suspended.

I'm fed up with this issue and I just want it to be resolved...please help me.

Problem situation: When registering the account, the real name was written incorrectly. Later, relevant supporting documents were provided via email. The name and related information were correctly modified, but the account was still blocked.

I have updated the primary billing method according to the warning, and have carried out relevant operations according to the community and customer support, but the account is still blocked and I have not received any further relevant solutions in the email. Can anyone help me deal with it?

Hi there,

I don't know how to get support on here but my freelancer account is suspended due to a failed payment method - i've added 2 different cards and paypal and its still suspended and I can't apply for jobs.

If I can't talk to anyone for support how do i get this issue resolved? There are no outstanding funds whatsoever so I'm confused and stuck. 

Thanks for your help.

Hi Good day,

 

My account has been suspended due to identity verification. I just changed my password and contact details.

Then I found out that my account was suddenly suspended. I already submitted my valid identification.

I am worried because I just started with my first client here.

 

Thank you so much and I am hoping that this will be resolved.

After trying for more than 2 days to get my issue solved, I'm reaching out through this channel to ask for help from a human person.
 
I got my credit card rejected when trying to buy Connects and my account got limited. I already added my debit card as the primary billing method and got accepted, but the account is still limited.

Please help me get my account working again!

I am writing to express my concern regarding the recent suspension of my Upwork account. I have always strived to adhere to Upwork's terms of service and maintain a high standard of professionalism in my freelancing activities. Therefore, I am surprised and concerned about this suspension.

I kindly request a detailed explanation of the reason(s) behind my account suspension. Additionally, I would appreciate any guidance or steps I can take to resolve this issue and have my account reinstated.

I have enjoyed working on Upwork and have always valued the opportunities it provides. I am eager to rectify any issues and continue contributing positively to the platform.

Thank you for your attention to this matter

Hi Rahul,

 

I'm sorry to hear about your account status. I can see that you must undergo identity verification, which is why your account is currently restricted. Please visit your Identity Verification settings page to get started.

 

Additionally, I recommend that you update your profile photo before going through the verification process, as it's not a portrait of yourself. Your profile must represent you as an individual and that all the information in your profile including your profile photo needs to be accurate, truthful, and verifiable. Please check this article for more information on how to update your profile photo.

Hello everyone,

So I've been a top-rated Upwork dev for around 9 years now and recently my primary email bound to my Upwork account was hacked. When I tried to log in to my account after a couple of days I received the message that my password might have been stolen so I needed to change it (well I have 2-factor authentication enabled so they couldn't have login but changing my password was mandatory). So I tried to change my password and on the last step it errored with something like "this information is not found".
When I tried to log in, neither the new nor the old password was accepted so I couldn't log in and I contacted the support team. They first suspended my account so it wouldn't get abused, but they did not help me further with it at all. It's been 10 days now that I've started a ticket and I've not received any help. Of course, in the beginning, they answered a couple of my tickets and said not to open a new ticket and to follow up on the old ticket( which I cannot follow up, on since I cannot log in and I cannot access my tickets!). I told them I could not follow up but I think the tickets were immediately closed and I did not receive any responses from them.
Long story short, I had to create this temporary account to help me retrieve my old account back. I made a suspension appeal here but it was instantly solved with a response that the account with my old email is not found! Honestly, I don't know what else could I do.
Any help regarding this issue is appreciated 🙂

Best regards,
Pedram

Hi Pradeep,

I've still not received any message from your team. I want to say again that my old account has not been stolen since I have two-factor authentication enabled on my account, so I just need a healthy reset password link and reactivation of my account and everything else should be fine. I would be more than happy to help with identification or any other ways necessary to help the support team.

Thank you

An update regarding this matter.

It's been more than a month since my access to account is lost (not hacked since I have two-factor authentication enabled). While I've been contacted by the Upwork support team. Again no new progress has been made for my account in the past two weeks. I know that the support team has a lot on their hands and I appreciate them, however, I believe resetting the password to an account which has not been hacked and was in active state probably should not be that much of a challenge. Still I can just assume. I hope we can figure out a way to fix this issue soon.
