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. 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?

I recently tried reopening my old Upwork account but was not able to. I created this one to find out what steps I need to do in order to get my old account back. Any help would be appreciated!

I attempted to delete the client account I created on accident and ended up deleting the account entirely. I want to login/signup again with the original email, but it won't allow me to do either.

Hello Upwork,
I tried to log in today with my account, I always signed in with my google email, and each time I tried it failed and displayed the message "That Google account is not recognized on Upwork".
I tried to contact Upwork but you can't get help without having an account. So I tried signing up again. So I pressed the button "Sign In with Google", and this time the message was "That email is already in use on Upwork". (pic below)
So, you can detect it, but it can't be used to get access somehow.
So I created this account to communicate with you, but I used the different email I used to sign in with Google.
Can someone please help me with this issue?

I created the wrong type of account (client) and closed the account in an attempt to make a correct one (freelancer). However, when I tried to set up the freelancer account, I was told that my email was already in use. When I tried to sign in to the old account it told me the account doesn't exist. I made a new account with a separate email but I would like to switch it back to my original email without the unnecessary association with that now closed account.

Hi,
I logged into Upwork a long while ago with an email that is no longer valid; I tried creating a new account with a better email, but now it won't let me go further since my phone number (which is still valid) is associated with the old email account. How do I go about logging in using my phone number to validate myself?
Sep 20, 2022 04:56:21 PM by Arjay M
Hi Nur,
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 and send me a private message with more information about the account you need help with? The email address would be extremely helpful. Looking forward to your response.

Hi,
I deactivated my account (paired with email address X1) some few months ago. It was deactivated, it did not recognize my account, as it should have. But, few days ago, when I tried to reactivate my account, when I type the first email address (x1), it says that it is in use. I tried to log in using my old credentials, and it responds with "incorrect username". I had to make account using different email address (x2) and I am unable to recover my old account (which is tied to the first email address). How can I address this? I would like to reactivate my old account and everything tat comes with it...

Hi Dragan,
Could you please click on my name and send me a PM with more information about the account you are referring to?
Please know that freelancers are not allowed to have more than one account on Upwork, regardless of the old account being closed, or suspended. Having multiple freelancer accounts is a serious violation of the Upwork Terms of Service.

Hi, I already sent DM on Upwork Community to you on the same day, but no response. Did you receive the message at all?
