Hello,
We are agency and we had an account with upwork since many years. We were busy with the other work. Since last few years we were not accepting the freelancing work due to business contracts.
Now we want to start with the freelancing work again. When i login to my account i see a message "Your account has been suspended". We alreay have work history on upwork. Can someone help me to get the account active.
Thanks & Regards,
Solved! Go to Solution.

Hi Amani,
If the action buttons that you usually use are grayed out, the Trust & Safety team may have suspended your account. In that case, you will have received a support ticket with an email notification about the action on your account. Please refer to your ticket here and reply to the email if you have any questions for the team.

My account has been on hold for over a week and I haven't gotten any information about why or what is needed to fix this. I am in a particularly urgent situation helping my Ukrainian family that lost everything and not being able to access my funds is extremely bad at the moment. I supplied Upwork with all of the information they asked for immediately. Please let me know why my account was put on hold and what I can do to speed up getting this fixed! Thank you.

Still haven't received any help but I've gotten " If you do not get a response after 24-48 hours, please feel free to follow up with us." 4 times so far in 10 days. My support ticket was now changed from "Open" to "Awaiting"... do you know if that is a step toward being "Solved" or a step backward?
Jun 26, 2022 07:34:04 PM by Pradeep H
Hi Steve,
Thank you for your message. I checked and I see that our team has already responded to you on Saturday and informed you that they are already in process of reviewing your account. The ticket status will always change to 'Awaiting' after a response from the support team and either awaiting your response or the team needs more time to review. One of our team members will reach out to you via the same ticket as soon as possible to assist you further.
Thank you,
Pradeep

Hi moderators, I have uploaded my id but my account is still suspended. I tried contacting support on June 18th but still no response. Is there anyone experiencing the same issue? What is the solution for this? I'm willing to comply to upwork guidelines and will do anything to get un-suspended. Thank you 🙏
My ticket id is #35613828

While I was in the middle of speaking to someone for potential work it just locked me out and suspended my account for no apparent reason?!? What can I do about this because I possibly just lost a potential client because of this

Hi There, I'm Abdur Rashid. I'm a full-time Freelancer.
I'm new to Upwork. So I did not know the law of Upwork properly. I used pictures of my previous work in my portfolio. Where was the full information of the contacts and contacts of others? Today my account has been suspended let me know the reason for the suspension of the account. I was asked in the email to delete the pictures. I removed it and informed via email. Now I am worried about whether I will get my account back. Freelancing has now become my only source of income. So I want to go back to work. Please help me.
Regards
Abdur Rashid
