I hired a freelancer 2 weeks ago with an hourly contract, but after a few days I noticed he was spending way too much time and the bill went out of control. Then we made an agreement to change the contract into a fixed one, and I paid before he refunded me the hourly contract.
After I paid for the fixed contract, he purposely delayed the time to refund the hourly contract and I filed a dispute immediately only to find his profile was not available and I had to call the support team. Before the support team could move forward, this freelancer's profile was available again with a different name and picture.
Has anyone encountered this situation before? Is there any chance I could get my refund back?
