Hi all, I recently created an agency account. I haven't added anybody, but as soon as I created it, I am being shown this notification.
'''

Hi pradeep,

This has happened three times now. Man I ask upwork support they fix the notification they verify me but once i try to add a payment method to withdraw my earnings. The notification starts to pop up on my profile. I think its because my video call verification isnt done. Can we like do a proper video call verification and get done with this. Its been almost 3 weeks now and I have paused working on my current contract as well. Because I am not getting paid so theres no point in working when you cant withdraw your funds. 
Please help 

regards 

Ahmed.

Hi,

I'm new to Upwork and completed my first job. It has been more than 48 hours but I'm still getting the KYC notification.

I was also not able to add my bank account as I got the message that your account is under review.

Any kind of help would be greatly appreciated.

Upwork suspended me and have no valid reason and demand ID, im a client on here for 6 years 4.5 star rating.

Happy client , happy freelancer experiences and randomly this week my account was suspended.

This behavior is a dictatorship, and breaches respect of my rights to how i share my private ID documents , my account has no suspicious behavior.

Never expected this platform to treat users like this for no reason but random profile suspending.

3 days have passed  , i have contacted customer support over 10x , to get this resolved. I keep getting told the Trust and safety team will get back to you, nobody responds back it's been over 24 hours and the first responses on day 1 from Trust and Safety team Steph denied me any rights to privacy. In Australia there is a privacy policy chapter 13: APP 3
