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.

Hi, 

I have started on UP-WORK again, before I had an account and I had history but for some reason after working for few months the platform decided to ban me, now I came back I uploaded my Passport, Resident ID of the country I am currently living and it keeps asking me to re-upload, re-upload there are no live chat support I already created a TOPIC here related to the Identity verification however now I went to a chat support and I was basically chatting with the BOT and the BOT said my account is suspended? 

This is very frustrating I do not even know what I have done like I just signed up I got the first job here and the account is banned how will I do now? should I continue to work with the client? after getting the JOB done will upwork unban or need to wait? 

Imagine you are working on UP WORK and some day thehy decide to ban you that is it this is very frustrating. 

here is the ticket ID ID #46657179 I have logged if someone is out there like a moderator and can give me a help here I would really appreciate it.

Hi dear moderators of Upwork. My account was frozen for a long time, but today I verified my identity and I want to continue working on Upwork. But I have the same problem. How can we solve it?

Hello Upwork community members,Hope you are doing well. I created another fake community account because I am not getting response from customer support. As the matter is solved, I will delete this account. I am very much worried about my account status because I am not getting any response from 20 days.

They marked my every ticket and every appeal for account suspension as solved without any response. Please resolve my issue.

Hi Karthik,

 

Thank you for your message. I checked your account and it appears that your account has been temporarily placed on hold while we complete a review of your account. Due to this, your active proposal has been archived until we complete our review. To expedite the process, please verify your account by clicking the 'Get Started' button on your Upwork homepage.

What is going on? Is this normal? I just joined Upwork 30 min ago so my company can hire someone. I went through the set up process, completed my profile and even entered a card for payment. Now less than 30 min later, my posting is closed, my profile is no longer available and my company is suspended???? This seems very suspicious. Has anyone else had this happen. Not making a great first impression on me that's for sure. Worried I am now being scammed for that card number. 

 I also am ubable to contact anyone to ask about this or get any customer support? What other platforms do you all suggest? This is not favorable at all. 

Hi Teri,

 

Firstly, welcome to Upwork. I'm sorry for the inconvenience this may have caused you and your company. I can see that you've been coordinating with the appropriate team about the status of your account. Please continue doing that through an active ticket on this page or your email so that they can assist you more efficiently.

I subscribed for a membership, I applied for a job and bid with connects.  Then my account was suspended without any explanation or whatsoever. Now, my proposal was withdraw and I can't reapply! 

 

These all happened within two days which is absurd after verifying my identity and even subscribing for a subscription. If I can't reapply, I would like to get at least a refund for my payment.

Hi Mickaella,

 

I checked your account, and the limitation has already been lifted. One of our team members has also updated your ticket to let you know. You can access the ticket here

For the last three days, I have not received a response from the Trust & Safety team, and my profile has been suspended for four days. I had a live chat with the agent tomorrow on the same issue, and he assured me that the team would respond quickly from now on. I've now made the decision to ask for aid here in the hopes of receiving a positive response.

 

However, I received no response. The standard response from Upwork is, "Please allow 24-48 hours for the team to respond to your support ticket." I have been waiting for over three days. What am I currently capable of doing?

Hi Ramzan,

Me and my friend tried to support each other here on Upwork by outsourcing our extra clients to each other. Since it's only for our extra clients, we only do that in emergencies when the other one can't handle the demand. After that, for some reason, UpWork suspended both of our accounts. We filed a ticket but none of us got any reply. Please, anyone, help us. Thank you!

Posting here as have not had a response to my suspension appeal / support ticket in 7 days.

 

Concern is they've been 'lost in the system' as it states I should have a reply within 24/48 hours.

Hoping someone from Upwork can help.

I received the email that upwork suspend my account because i paid myself but actually i have not. 
I professionally know Haleema through LinkedIn. She wanted to help her in her project. So I guided her to make and account on Upwork and hire me professionally. I did her work in very professional manner. Upwork appreciate the efforts if any freelancer take any client to the Upwork from any business platforms like LinkedIn and utilize the platform here. So  I did the same. 

 
Kindly recover and open my account as soon as possible. I need to submit some work for my other client Kaleb. I will be very thankful to you for this. 
 
P.S: I also shared the link of her linkden profile in the reply of ticket.
