Do not want to use Google Signin

Hi,
I am using google sign-in to do the login to Upwork.

But now, I do not want to use my google sign anymore.

I want to use a separate Upwork username & password to login.

 

Please guide.

 

Thanks in advance.

Hi all,

 

If you need help signing in to your account, we’ll need to ask you to confirm some private account details in order to help you. At Upwork, protecting your privacy is our priority. With this in mind, it would be best if you reach out directly to our support team so they can assist you within a private and secure channel of communication. 

 

 

How do I reach a human in customer support?

 

  1. Please visit Contact Support and click the ‘Chat with Upwork' button.
  2. Type a question or topic and select ‘Send’. The bot will find relevant Help articles for you.
  3. The chatbot will ask you to confirm if you need additional help. If you confirm that you need additional help, you will be asked to confirm the account type you need help with.
  4. From there, the support options available to you will be listed. Select either of the options to be able to contact the Upwork Support Team.

Hi,

I use the 'Log in with Google' option when signing into upwork without a problem. However, when I try to verify my payment method, i'm first asked a security question, then required to enter a password. I enter my Google password but it doesnt work, what could be the problem please. Thanks

I've been trying to sign in to my original UpWork account, but keep getting prompted to sign in with Google. When I try to use my Google it says it hasn't been enabled. I've read other UpWorkers support tickets and tried troubleshooting, but nothing has worked. This is a new account I've created to try to get help here.

 

Thanks in advance for your help!

dear Upwork team,
I created my upwork account with Google SSO. But recently, a user connected to my user account 4 times from Aulnay-sous-bois even if I changed the password in upwork.
Now, I want to change the log in from Google SSO to unique email adress with password with double authentication but when I want to remove the Google SSO, Upwork requires me to type a password but I don't know which password I need to put. When I put the upwork password or the Google one, it fails.
so please help me by providing a new password so that I can switch from Google SSO to log in with password and double authentication.

My goal is to avoid hacking by the user.

thank you

I have been trying to create an Upwork account through Google but I am always receiving this message, "Google account ... is not recognized for Google Sign-In on Upwork." Is there anything I can do to sign-up with my Google account?

Hi Upwork Team, 

 

I created my Upwork account 3 days ago using Google Sign up option. Now I want to open my account on my mobile phone. My HUAWEI Phone did not have any access to my Google account. Now I am trying to log in with the same google email address to Upwork button 'Continue with Email' but failed. I want to log in to this google email as 'Continue with Email'. 

 

Please give me a solution. 

 

Thank you

I changed the email in my profile, but now I can't log in with a new email, because I had an old login through Google.
How can I log into my account with a new email?

I recently deleted a client account that was tied to my google account. I cannot create a new account using that email address, as I get an error saying that the email is in use. When I then try to create a new account and tie it to my google account, it states  that the google account isn't eligble to sign up with Upwork? Do I have to wait a certain amount of time after account deletion?

I'm trying to login to my upwork account (I created this new one so I can post for help) the username I need help with is **Edited for Community Guidelines**. When I try to login it makes me use google suite login and then tells me my account is not authorized to sign in that way but does not give me the option to put in my password. I've tried signing in on the app, mobile site, and desktop site and the same issue. Can someone help me?

Please know that freelancers are not allowed to have more than one account on Upwork, regardless of the old account being closed, or suspended. Having multiple freelancer accounts is a serious violation of the Upwork Terms of Service.

I keep getting this message when it try to sign in with my other google account. But then when I try to set up the account, I get the message that the username already exists.

How do I fix this?

Hi Neil,

 

Thank you for reaching out to us. Did you mean that you have another account aside from this one?
