Upwork is a great platform for freelance work full of different job opportunities. After 5 years actively working, I've always had the necesary support from them and I can say that if you work responsibly, you will have great results.
I really appreciate the team. I have found great opportunities to work with new clients. Genuinely, all the clients are satisfied.
I have been working on Upwork's platform for so long and I can say honestly is far the BEST place where you can find great projects to work with. Also you can build a business profile that have a huge impact in your career.
The contractors are great, not scammers as other freelancers website, everything is super secure to work, receive in the right time.
Once you get experience on how using the website, how send proposals, how to decide whether is good or bad projecto to work with, the better will be the experience.
You can easily flag bad job offers, which helps the platform to remove bad contractors or just wasters of time and energy.
Love Upwork!
Thanks
I am very happy working on Upwork as it gives me great opportunities to work with business around the globe which otherwise I won't have got.
Most of the clients are very good with communication, requirements & payments. Obviously there have been couple of times where i faced difficulties but that's the case even when you work with clients offline.
Looking forward to work with more businesses and help them succeed in their goals and eventually grow during this process
Great work experience from the upwork team and professionalism. Thank you Upwork for your team work and platform
I'm so happy to work with Upwork Team. Great opportunities, a huge selection of customers and always excellent service.
Thank you guys.
Upwork is the best platform a freelancer can dream of. I've been on upwork for a while now and it has been a great experience so far.
I am a long time customer. All starts good. Last company I worked with was Rakvin from India. Agreed on 3000 USD contract with 4 milestones ( 900,900,900,300) after each payments it took them always very long time to raact and now I know why. Upwork is protecting you only 30 days after payment. So finally I lost 2700 USD because after its up to freelancer to refund you or not! I will NEVER again work with Upwork. Their protection of clients who pay in fact their comision is not ok. I know, I should have read and understand T&C but not everybody is speaking 100% English :(( . Very expensive lesson for me. No application-no money.!
I would like to thank Upwork team for their efforts to make this platform professional & easy for freelancers & clients to complete Freelance jobs

Answer: They are horrible. Every freelancer I've gotten from Upwork has cost me more to fix the small job they have done. There's absolutely no customer service! I would stay away
Answer: This is not the place to inquire.
Answer: No, just 20% of your job when we talk about fixed price, and same for hourly but after some week it's been 10%
Answer: Go to Settings › Contact Info › Click the Close my account link. If you meet the requirements, click the button to confirm that you want to close your account.
Answer: I am a customer and have had a really horrible experience. Upwork claims a 100% guarantee before you pay anything. That is not true. The process is actually quite horrible. You put money in escrow. You only get your money back after a bad contract if the freelancer agrees to release the money. If the freelancer refuses, you get a bargain offer to still pay them something but still you are paying for a bad job you can't use. Then, if you refuse to bargain over a bad job, you are told that it will cost you an additional $389 to arbitrate with a 3rd party affiliate that the customer (me), the freelancer (scammer) and Upwork (ripoff enabler) has to pay. I took it all the way to arbitration with the end result being that Upwork decided that I was just too uninformed to know their policy and that they would give me a one time only refund of my original amount. What they didn't tell me what that they just gave me a "credit" of my original amount and that was the end. So I am still out the original amount and can't get my money back. This sight is a ripoff. Plain and simple.
Answer: Because of their policy changes which are geared towards the client rather than the freelancer. They have dug their own grave with their policy changes of late.
Answer: Go to Get Paid on PC or Mobile, you will see 3 dots in front of your payment method, tap to select edit/remove to change them. Go to Billing Method on PC under Billing Section and tap three dots to change (edit/remove). Thanks
Answer: Be part and see, dont look at the sold mine reviews people, upwork can bush you to reach.
Answer: I agree with Sam. This place is a scam. They have bad reviews everywhere. Katrina is probably working for them!
