Freelance plus subscription cancellation and refund

My freelance plus subscription has been auto renewed. I don't want the subscription. I want to cancel it and initiate the refund process. But to my surprise, there's no way to contact upwork's coustomer support. Is there any way upwork's support can be reached? Is this the right channel to raise a request?

Dear Pradeep,

 

I'm not complaining about the charge for the subscription, as it was my own oversight in failing to cancel the service before the next billing cycle began. Because I recognized Upwork as the best platform for freelancers, I didn’t scrutinize every detail. I might have subconsciously assumed that you wouldn’t charge me without my consent. Even if you did, I expected you to inform me in advance, allowing me reasonable time to make a decision, similar to how Canva operates as a reputable company.

 

The reason I am temporarily downgrading this service is not because it isn't worth the price but entirely due to the financial difficulties I am currently facing. I understand that $20 might be a small amount for some, perhaps even what you'd spend on a cup of tea, but for me, it's the money I've set aside to pay the annual service charge for my daughter's primary school. In fact, most government schools charge even less than $20.

 

Therefore, I kindly request a refund, as I canceled the subscription within an hour of activation without using any of the subscription features. I also informed you in this section, which was the only way I found to reach you.

Thank you very much for your kind consideration.

 

Sincerely,
Isuru Herath

Hi There,
 
I have been charged  $19.99 for Membership fee (Subscription Renewal Charges).
 
I never know that upwork will automatically take payment from my card.
And I never wanted to renew my subscription.
 
 
I don't want to get anymore connects.
And I don't want renewal of subscription.
 
I would request upwork team to refund me the $14.99 amount that has been taken from my bank.
Also they can take the connects from my account.
As I don;t want them.
 
Also I don't want any Paid subscription in future.
Please unsubscribe me & issue me refund on urgent base.

When you subscribe to a Plan, it means it will be renewed each month until you cancel the renewal yourself. You won't be asked for permission each month. You can go back to Freelance Basics by going into your Settings and following the steps.
