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.

Hi! I am unable to log into my account because I am trying to reset my password, but after numerous attempts, I am still not getting the email. I have no idea what my password is so please help me out! This is not the account I usually use.

I am trying to verify my identity. The issue I am facing is that Upwork says this:

'We just sent an email to the address: **Edited for Community Guidelines**

Please check your email and select the link provided to verify your address.'
 
But (as demonstrated below) there is no relevant link.
 

If this was you no further action is required. If you do not recognize this activity, reset your password immediately.

Security is important to us at Upwork, and we will inform you if we notice unusual account activity. We may be unable to recognize a login attempt when you have cleared your cookies or are logged in under private browsing mode.

For tips on how to keep yourself safe online visit the Upwork Security Center. To add an extra layer of security, you can choose to receive a text message if we notice unusual activity like this in the future. Go to your Password and Security settings now to set up two-step verification

 

I have also tried via the QR Code, and the text message and the App on my phone - but this just directs me to safari to the last (unrelated and non-Upwork) page that I was on. Can I have some help? Is this a temporary bug?

How long have you been on upwork?

This is not a "check your spam folder" issue - I am not getting any password reset e-mails for the past hour. I had to use a separate account in order to even report this issue. Can someone please help?

I have not received the message to verify my email address. I have re-sent it dozens of times. It is not in my Junk, Spam, Archives or anywhere else on my email account. I have spent hours going in circles on the live chat which just keeps telling me to check my spam folder and offering no form of practical assistance.
