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 can't even send you a message. I get the error "You used a bad word. When I clearly did not". Here's my private message text.

Hi Luiggi. Hope you're doing well. My email that i am unable to login from is **edited for Community Guidelines**. I don't know my password since i haven't logged in for a decent amount of time.
I tried to forget it but when i enter my email, i get Invalid username or email. It's very frustrating. Kindly help me out please.

It's shocking how poor upwork's error handling is or whatever the issue is. Unbelievable 😞

Ok so I got the email on my current gmail account (the account i am using right now in upwork support). It gave me the temporary password to use that to log in but when i try to enter email, it gives me same error that "Oops Username is invalid". 

Also the email that has issue is **Edited for Community Guidelines** then why on earth is upwork sending me password on my account that i used to file issue with. What if I was someone else, i mean you would really give me the password of someone else on my other email?
This is shockingly poor. I am really dissapointed by upwork's support and system.

I closed my account on upwork a while back but decided to try coming back. However when I try to make an account using my email it tells me that there's already an account created with that email. 
Trying to log in using that email tells me that there's no account associated with that email.

 

Is there a way to solve this or am I going to have to use another email? I'd like to use my professional email **Edited for Community Guidelines**

Hi Missie,

 

Please be reminded that users are only allowed to have one account and having multiple accounts is a violation of Upwork's TOS. Could you please click on my name above this post and send me a private message with more information about your original account? The email address associated with it would be extremely helpful. Looking forward to your response.

I need help signing in to my account, when logging in without google it says I need to sign in through google and when signing in with google it says this account does not use google.  I made this second account as I cannot ask a question or get support from Upwork otherwise.

Hello, my account was suspended a few years ago and im not being able to appeal the suspension. I tried to reach support but it always redirects me to the upwork landing page. I just created this account so i could ask here what i should do. 

 

How should i proceed?

While trying to close only the freelance account, I have apparently closed the whole account and can't login again with it. This is kind of a problem as I had messages I wanted to get back to. Is there a way to get into contact with Upwork support to reactivate my real account and close this one? Upwork Help Center does hide all options to contact a real agent. By clicking "Contact a Support Agent" I just get redirect to "help center" site.

The message "This profile is no longer available" is still written, what I must do to solve this problem and then write a private message? Can someone help me with this problem?
