Hello, Upwork
I too am having trouble verifying my number. When I get my money to my local bank, I can not get code verifying to my phone or my E-mail, I tried it in 2 days and it is the same problem. Would you be able to have a team member reach out to me as well?
Solved! Go to Solution.

Hi Upwork,
I have the same problem on re-completing my account profile. On the phone number, i encountered an error saying "This number is being used by another account". I tried to login to my previous account but my email address is not known anymore so i created a new one and this happened. For your assistance please?
Thanks!

They will assist you with the issue you are experiencing on your original account, and also help you with closing the one you created to reach out to us. You can check here or your email for updates.

Hello,
I am trying to set up an Upwork freelancer profile, but even though I have put in my phone number correctly, I do not receive any confirmation texts: I have been able to receive other texts without issue. Would any admin members be able to assist me?
Thank you.

Hi Benjamin,
I checked your account and can see that you have yet to add your address to your account information. Could you please add it first before trying to verify your phone number? If the issue persists, please let us know, and our team will assist you further.

Hello Avery,
I had added my address when trying to add my phone number, but it still wasn't working. However, I have just now received the confirmation texts, so I was able to get my account set up. Apologies for the bother.

I am trying to register on Upwork. I have verified my email address. But when I try to verify the phone number I never receive the verification text:
1) I have removed all blocked numbers from my phone. So there is nothing blocking it on my phone.
2) I have contacted my phone service provider who confirmed there is no block or limit on my account so I should receive the text.
3) I successfully receive texts from other companies. It is only Upwork for which I do not receive the text.
Are you able to advise? Thanks.

I am trying to finish creating my freelance profile. When I key in my phone number to receive the code, an error message states this phone number is already in use with another account. This is the first time I have created an account so I'm not certain how that could be. Please assist. Thanks.

Hi,
I tried to create an account today and got to the phone number information section. When I tried to verify my phone number, it said that my number is already in use by another account, then I realized that I created an account years ago but didn't use it. I managed to log in and close the old account, but I still can't verify my phone number. Can I get a support ticket opened for this? Thanks

I can’t verify my phone number even after I type in the code. The screen doesn't update and it keeps saying my phone needs to be verified.
Jul 31, 2022 11:03:38 PM by Andrea G
Hi Lorrana,
I checked and it does look like you were able to verify. Could you please confirm if you're still seeing the notification asking you to verify? If so, please send a screenshot so we could check.
