Hi Olin,

Just to confirm that your refund is processing and you should see it on your transaction history soon.

Goran, I had the same problem. I accidentally clicked "Featured" and got charged $29.99. I do not want to use the benefits of having a Featured job posting, and would like to get that amount refunded ASAP. Can you please return that money to me? Thank you.

Andrea G,

 

Seems i may have done the same thing!

 

Can i have assistance with a refund please?

Hi Guys,

 

So apologies if my statement may seem insane, yet I am a freelancer client who tried posting a job here.

 

Upon completing my job requirements and providing the job description, Upworks ask me for my credit card details which I provided.

 

Next thing, I was charged $29!!!

 

Being new to the platform, I was not aware that posting a job would cost immediate money without any interested parties or candidates, the funds were reversed and there seem to be no means of contacting Upworks to dispute the charges as I have not selected nor requested any special service that would possibly cost me an immediate service fee for additional job features.

 

Their contact number: **Edited for Community Guidelines** seems to be going to voicemail on both options, as frustrating as it may be, i am now left without options but to ask here!

Makes me dought the platform!!

 

How do I get my money back????

Hi, Same thing happened to me. I accidently clicked on featured an it just charged $29.99 right away. Now I have to pay $30 for $5 job. It's just simple task worth $5 maybe but it's costing $35 for me now. So is there any chance I can get refund for that. Thank You.

Hi there. Upwork charged my Visa with 29,99$ after I posted a new Job? I did not choose a premium advertising for the job I posted, but it says so. It was pretty unclear. So I would like a refund as I want to post my job as an ordinary job post not premium.

How to get a refund of money for the premium job post?

I published work and invited freelancers when I reach the maximum limit, it asked me to convert the project to a premium or featured project and I clicked the yes button but didn't notice that this is for money I thought it was for free, then I received emails saying that Upwork charged me for 29 $ but I didn't want that, I want Upwork to refund me and also I didn't invite new persons after that so I didn't use this feature because I want my money back please, I opened a ticket but I don't know what is the status and don't know if I should cancel the project within 24 hours to get my money back or what, anyone can help me thank you.

Transaction history says "premium job". But I didn't want this job to be premium, and there was no option anywhere during the posting process about that. I wanted it to be a regular job.

 

Why am I being charged for a "premium" job?
