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 tried setting up an account with my email address however the site says the email is already in use. When I try logging in with the same email address the website produces an error saying invalid username. Help!

I am still not receiving help. I am not trying to be difficult, but this is ridiculous.

Hello,
I need support to get back my Upwork account.
I mistakenly closed both my freelancer and client accounts while trying to close only the client account. I thought the action would close only the client account since the questions I was asked for reasons why I wanted to close the account where related only to a client account. Now I cannot login to my freelancer account anymore. I just created this account as an ad hoc one to be able to contact Upwork support.
Is there a way to get back my freelancer account, please?

I accidentally created a client account a few months back, which I realized yesterday. In switching my account from client to freelancer, I ended up closing my account. Now I don't have access to my account. When I try to log in, it comes with an error your google account is not recognized for Google Sign-in on Upwork. I'm using the same email address on which I have my account. Would you please help me to have my account back? I am using my brother's Upwork account to ask to question here in customer support.
my gmail account which is not opening is: **Edited for Community Guidelines**

Hi,
Can I restore the testimonials or client history from an old account I had? I haven't used it in over 5 years and I think it was deleted by the platform because today I tried to sign in and it forced me to sign up for a new account.
I signed up for this new account using the same email address that I used for the old one.

Hi Bogdan,
Thank you for your message. I am unable to find any other account link to the email address on this new account. Could you please click on my name next to this post and send me a private message with the correct registered email address for the old account?
Thank you,
Pradeep

I have the same issue. Created account with gmail, neglected it, now when attempting to log in it says "username incorrect," but when attempting to create a new account with that gmail it says "already exists." Please advise.

I have an Upwork account with my email**Edited for Community Guidelines** but I am unable to log in. It says username is incorrect. I am trying to log in after a long time and I have forgotten my username. So I want help in this regard.

Hi Aniket,
Thank you for reaching out to us. It looks like the account you're trying to log into has been closed. The account would have to be reinstated first before you can log in so I've asked for assistance from our support team. One of our agents will reach out to you via a support ticket to assist you further. You can access your support tickets here.
