Hi Chandrakant,

 

If you need help restoring your account, we’ll need to ask you to confirm some private account details in order to help you. At Upwork, protecting your privacy is our priority. With this in mind, it would be best if you reach out directly to our support team so they can assist you within a private and secure channel of communication. 

 

 

How do I reach a human in customer support?

 

  1. Select Get Support at the bottom of the Help Center page
  2. Type a question or topic and select "Send." The bot will find relevant Help articles for you.
  3. If we don't find the information you need after a few tries, you’ll see an option under the article selections to "Contact Support"
  4. Select "Contact Support" and follow the options provided

My account was closed last month due to no activity - I would like to reopen it but when I put in my email it it saying it doesn't recognize it. When I try to create a new account with the same email, the system says that email is already in use. I created another account with my new email - I didn't realize that was against the rules. Can somoene please help me re-open my original account and close the new one?

Hello,

 

I asked for help some days ago, and someone from the support team told me to send her a private message so she can solve my problem, but she is now not responding to anything. I am facing problems with resetting my password and I need urgent help. Every time I try to reset my password, the page tells me that my account information cannot be recovered. I have been trying for a week now... Any input is helpful at this point, thank you.

 

Thanks,

H.

Hi there,

Hello,

 

I'm experiencing a problem with logging into my old account. I remember the e-mail, but I forgot password for it.

 

When I click on reset my password, security question appears but I'm not sure how I wrote the original answer for it (uppercase, full name etc.) after trying for several times I get a screen that says that e-mail is sent with 6 digit code to reset a security question - but that e-mail never comes, I checked Updates, Spam and everything.

 

Could you please help me with getting back my old account? It's really important for me.

Thank you in advance!

Hi, my account associated with **Edited for Community Guidelines** is giving the above error. Please reinstate that account. I cant even login or change password.

I have created this new account to seek support in this matter. Will delete it once my main account is reinstated.

Hi Taimur,

 

Thank you for reaching out to us. One of our team members will reach out to you directly via a support ticket to assist you further. You can access your tickets on this page.

 

Please know that freelancers are not allowed to have more than one account on Upwork, regardless of the old account being closed, or suspended. Having multiple freelancer accounts is a serious violation of the Upwork Terms of Service.

Hello, 

 

I have an odesk account. 

How can I do to recover it ? 

Hi there,

 

Thank you for reaching out to us. I can see that you opened a support ticket regarding this issue and are now being assisted by one of our agents. If you wish to update the team with new information, I highly suggest that you post it on the ticket thread. Otherwise, I would recommend avoiding sending follow-ups on the same ticket thread because it goes back to the end of the queue every time a new message is added.

Hello,
Yesterday while I was online on Upwork, I got a message that my account has been compromised and I was logged out. Later I scanned my computer with two different antivirus program and couldn't find any issues. Then tried to reset my password. However, when I try to reset my password, I get no link from Upwork. I tried it numerous times but I haven’t got any mail from Upwork to change my password. 

To be more precise; 

 

When I enter my old login and password I got this message

"Your password has been identified as compromised. Please update your password now to protect your account."

Then I have only on option which is to update my password.

Later I give my mail address, after that I get the message "We’ve sent an email to your email address. Follow the steps provided in the email to update your password."

 

I repeated this proces numerous times but I haven't got any message from Upwork.  

Then I sent a message to accountsecurity@upwork.com about the situation but didn't get any reply. 

I eventually created another Upwork account with my Apple account just to be able to write in here.

 

Regards,

Hakan

Hello members of the upwork community 
I have seen that some members have access to helping others with the below issue.
I had an old acocunt with upwork with the email adress**Edited for Community Guidelines**

I was intending to close that one and open one with the email address **Edited for Community Guidelines**

And I did. But unfortunately some of the info I tried to save from my last account, had accidentally not been saved. 
Can you restore that account for me. Yes, I know you will need to close the current one. Once I save the content from there, I will proceed myself with what I need to do. Thank you.
