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.

Mike, 

 

Can you help me get onboard? I can't verify my email and I'm going through a loop where I click on the link only to land for a millisecond on the help page before being taken to my project page. 

 

Thanks

Hello,

 

I'm new and wanted to make an account, but unfortunatelly I haven't received a verification e-mail. I've tried the resend button a couple of times and I've checked all my e-mail boxes including spam and junk. My e-mail address is typed correctly.

 

Any assistance will be appreciated!


Thanks!

I'm trying to verify my email address but haven't found the verification email from Upwork. I've already tried re-sending the verification email several times and checked my junk/spam folders. I don't know what is the issue

Hi Goran!

I've checked spam/junk folders and waited about an hour before re-sending the verification email. But haven't received any mail yet.

Hi,

I need moderator support. I have issues to verify for my work email when sign up for a new account. I copied the verification link received from email and went to that link, but it said verification failed. Very odd. Please resend me another email. Thank you

Hello! I am a sports dietitian and I am trying to set up my account but I haven't received the email from Upwork that would allow me to confirm my account and start using it. I've also checked all the folders, including spam.

 

PS. I want to use my business email, insted of the gmail, but it seems that the confirmation only arrives to the gmail (if I choose the gmail).

 

Please let me know how to deal with this!

Hi Foteini,

 

I checked and the confirmation email was sent to your email successfully. Make sure you’ve entered the email address correctly and lastly use the option to change the email address you provided if you are still having issues. Afterwards, please resend the email one more time, check your inbox and spam folder, check the settings for your email provider and make sure emails from Upwork aren’t being blocked. 

 

Let us know if you received the confirmation email.

 

Thank you!

Hi, i have just created anaccount with Upwork and I am stuck at the verification of my email step because I am not recieving any verification mails. I've tried to change to another email as well but there is just no mail at all. I have tried for hours on end but even after requesting multiple resends, there is still no mail.

 

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.
