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. Select Get Support at the bottom of the Help Center page
  2. Type a question or topic and select "Send." The bot will find relevant Help articles for you.
  3. If we don't find the information you need after a few tries, you’ll see an option under the article selections to "Contact Support"
  4. Select "Contact Support" and follow the options provided

Hi,

I have created my profile, though still am getting Alert on page to verify the email.

If I click on send verification email, the email is never received.

However, welcome email and Daily Digest are being received.

Can support team look into?

Hello Upwork community, I'm looking for suggestions on improving my Upwork profile.

https://www.upwork.com/freelancers/~01f29fb2bc6ca82372

I sent many proposals but did not get a job. Please review my profile and give feedback.

My email verification is not working.  I am unable to post my job or invite anyone to review the job posting.  Your website keeps taking me back to the email verification page.   Yes, I checked my spam filter and junk folders.    I'm feeling a little frustrated.   I really would like to use your service if I can get it to work properly.   Could someone help me?

 

Thank you. 

Hi Rachel,

 

I tried and wasn't able to replicate the issue you're describing. I can actually see that you were able to get in contact with a freelancer for an interview. Could you please try using a different browser or the incognito mode of the current one? You may also try clearing your cache and cookies. Let us know if the issue persists with a screenshot of what you can see from your end and we'll look further into that for you.

hi guys 

11 days ago I recieved a mail that I need to verify my ID , followed the link to see what I can send to verify and I only found 2 ways available in Egypt, a passport or a visa 

and I have none of those, tried sending my driving license but it doesn't work, contacted support center and said that in a ticket and no reply since 11 days 

now I'm having this msg (Action required: Verify your identity by 06/19/2023 UTC to continue winning jobs on Upwork. Get started.)

any suggestions ? 😞 

 

 

I'm sorry to hear about the difficulties you're experiencing with the identity verification process on Upwork. Since Upwork has specific requirements for identity verification, it's important to follow their guidelines to continue working on the platform. Here are a few suggestions you can consider:

  1. Reach out to Upwork Support: If you haven't received a response to your initial support ticket, I recommend following up with Upwork's support center again. Explain the situation, including the fact that you don't have a passport or visa but have tried to provide your driving license as an alternative. They should be able to assist you further or provide alternative options for verification.

  2. Provide additional documentation: If your driving license isn't being accepted, you could inquire with Upwork Support about any other forms of identification they might accept for verification in Egypt. They may have specific requirements that are not clearly outlined in their documentation.

  3. Seek local guidance: Consider contacting your local government office or relevant authorities in Egypt to inquire about obtaining a valid identification document that meets Upwork's requirements for verification. They may be able to provide guidance or alternative options.

  4. Temporary workarounds: While I don't recommend this as a long-term solution, you could temporarily pause bidding on new jobs or winning projects until you have resolved the verification issue. This way, you can focus on resolving the identity verification matter without the pressure of upcoming deadlines.

Remember that Upwork's guidelines and requirements are in place to ensure the security and integrity of the platform for all users. It's important to comply with their policies to maintain your account's eligibility. I recommend persisting in your communication with Upwork Support to find a solution that works for your specific situation.

I got it solved, thanx 🙂

I haven't received any verification email, even after trying to resend it multiple times. Now it says I've reached my verification email limit.

Neither the inbox nor the junk mail or even spam include any verification email from Upwork! And I see that it is a common problem! Please fix it!

Hi,

I am logged in but unable to verify the account as it requires a verification code via SMS.
I have requested the code to be sent many times and yet no SMS received.

 

Yes, I have tested my phone can receive SMS by others.

Please help.

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.

Hello, I have never used Upwork, so today I tried to create an account, as stated in the Title, I tried to use my main email address but the site thinks it is already in use. When I tried to reset the password it failed due to invalid user name.

So I created this account with an alternate email address, when I tried to open a support ticket, I could not due to the age of my new account.

Can I please get some assistance with my primary email address issue?

Hi Kyle,

 

Can you please click on my name and send me a PM with the email address associated with your main account? I'll look into that and assist you accordingly. Looking forward to your message.
