Hi TK,

 

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. 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.

I have an account associated with an email that I stopped receiving mail for, which I haven't been to fix the issue. Because of this I created another account with a different email and wasnt unable to get text verification because the number was associated with my old account. The old account is now suspended further complicating the issue. I haven't been able to get a response on this issue, and certainly I didn't intend to break any rules. I just really need someone to help me fix this issue. The best thing would be for me to delete my old account so that I could get text verification in my new account. Thank you!

Hi Matt,

 

Thank you for reaching out, and we certainly understand your concern about your accounts. However, please be aware that users can only have one account, and having several violates the Upwork TOS.

 

I can see that you've been coordinating with the team and raised a support ticket about your concerns. Please continue communicating with the team through an active ticket on this page so that they can assist you more efficiently.

Hi Arjay,

 

I have not received any responses from the Upwork Support team. I simply need to remove my old account associated with the email, **Edited for Community Guidelines**. That's all. I was not aware that I was a breaking policy. The only reason I set up the other account is because the old account's email is not working. Can you please pass this message along to support? I need to get back online and look for work asap. Thank you!

It looks like they already closed my ticket which was sent out Thursday before I could even respond! This is really poor customer service. Can you send me a new appeal? Thanks!

Hello,

My account was suspended for the reasons unknown to me, in a period of time, when I wasn't even using Upwork.

I asked about it in a ticket, but wasn't getting a response to it for more than 10 days. As it was pretty urgent, I, out of despair decided to delete my account and reopen it, to draw attention of your team.

 

But now I can't reopen it. When I send a request to reopen it, I get a response, that this account was suspended... and I can file an appeal.

But if I try to file an appeal, it says, I can't do that, because my account was closed. 

Seems there is no way out of this circle.

 

So I created a new account and now using it to write this message.

Hello,

 

I had to create a new account with a different email to even be able to post this. However, here is my issue:

- When I try to signup with Google Auth or my email, Upwork tells me there is already an account associated with that email

- When I try to login or reset my password with that same email, Upwork tells me there is no account associated with that email

 

Thus, I can both not login or signup using my main email. I have tried using the Chatbot, 100% unhelpful. I have tried to send in requests to reset the password, but have not heard back.

 

How do I resolve this?

 

Thank you.
