Hi Chandrakant,
If you need help restoring your account, 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.

How do I reach a human in customer support?

Hi, whenever I try to login using google,**Edited for Community Guidelines**
It says I can't log in with google. (Google account s...e@gmail.com is not recognised for Google Sign-In on Upwork. Please make sure you are using the same account that you have previously linked)
Then whenever I try to log in with just my email, I get a response that the account that the Username is incorrect?
I tried resetting my password, but whilst in filling my email **Edited for Community Guidelines** it doesn't allow me either.
When I want to make a new account with the email**Edited for Community Guidelines** then I am not allowed because there is already an account with that email address.
Could someone help me out?

Hi my main account at upwork is **Edited for Community Guidelines**, in the past I did get notifications from **Edited for Community Guidelines** from upwork. I cannot use the **Edited for Community Guidelines** on upwork as it says its in use, If I try to login it says incorrect username, if I try to get a password forgotten email I get the same error invalid username. I cant see anywhere in my upwork account that its linked to **Edited for Community Guidelines** , how do I resolve this ? as I want to use my hotmail address as main email.

Hi Mohame,
I checked and can confirm the team has emailed you to the registered email of the account you're referring to. You can try finding their email by searching the subject line "Forgot Security Question and Password."
Please reply directly to that email to communicate with the team, when everything is in one place we can be more efficient in assisting you.

I am new to upwork and I created an account, not knowing you are not allowed to delete your account. I was accidentally logged in as a client and couldn't figure out how to create a freelancer account under the same name, so I deleted the account.
After researching ways to solve the problem, I am very dissapointed that It was not made clear what would happen if I delete an account (email and phone number cannot be reused) and it was not clear that that was the reason creating a new account was not working.
I have found out through other forums that I need to contact support and have them restore my account
however, it seems like I need an account in order to contact support, but even then I can't find a way to contact support. I am writing from some sort of half-account that doesn't have access to full features of upwork.
I want to interact with a human who can restore my old account please.

I created an account but closed it b/c it said I had another account associated with my phone number. I closed both accounts. However, when I tried to recreate the account, it said that my email was associated with a profile & I needed to sign in. I tried to sign in and it said it was not a correct email. So I've created another account simply to be able to ask for help in reopening the other account (with the email that I want assocaited with the account). Can someone please point me in the right direction? Thank you in advance!
