Hi Muhammad,

 

If you need help verifying your email, 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.

I've requested the verification email multiple times, and it hasn't been sent to my email (I've checked the spam folder, too). How can I resolve this?

Hi Andrea,

 

Thanks for replay. Actually no need to share any data with me, How can I PM you her email (email she used to register)? So you can contact with her via her email or please mention the other support channel she can use.

I set up an Upwork account a while ago and have since then tried requesting a text message to verify my account numerous times to no avail. I was looking for assistance with this matter. Thank you.

Hi there,

 

At the "Verify your email" step of creating a new upwork account, I clicked a few times on "Resend verification email" without success. (Now I reached the "maximum" number of verification sent.) My inbox is still empty and so is my spam/junk folder. My email address is otherwise working perfectly (I receive other emails).

 

Could anyone please help me with this issue?

 

Thanks in advance!

I am not receiving the verification email because I've misspelled the email account and now I cannot change or modificate it. 
How can I do to correct it and verificate my account?

I have signed up an account in Upwork and I am not recieving any verification emails. I've tried for days but even after requesting multiple resends, the mail just won't come.

I've also checked the junk folder and the spam folder.

Can somebody help me resolve this issue please?

I received a different email from Upwork about 18 minutes ago. Checked spam, etc. Not receiving the email after they requested me to verify (again) while trying to get to my settings.

 

I haven't used Upwork much but wow, it is a pain to get started.

I've made an account with Upwork and I am stuck at the verification of my email step because I am not recieving any verification mails. I've tried for hours on end but even after requesting multiple resends, the mail just won't come. 

I've checked the junk folder and the spam folder and contact Gmail support too, and they tell me the mail never reached their servers. 

Can somebody help me resolve this issue please!
