Fiverr has worst help and support team they just don't give a damn about there customers and sellers and act like god like creatures... Okay even if you have to bane any account YOU can at least:
1) Give them one or two WARNINGS...
2) If you just don't have time to give them warning at least you can tell them that which rule and regulation they have breached and broke...
Worst website and company ever... :(

After submitting my specs, one-day following, the designer and I agreed that my order could not be fulfilled. A request for refund was immediately made at Fivver's website. However, Fivver provided only a 'Fivver credit' not a refund of my payment. I then exhausted all options at Fivver's website. Their website shows a button for issuing a refund to my payment method but that button is an image only, it is not functional. I am attempting to resolve the issue through my payment method provider.

I signed up, selected a gig, communicated with the seller, paid to place and Order--then, I could access my account (kept receiving a notice that I needed to activate my account per an activation email. I kept requesting for the email to be re-sent, it wasn't), when I logged in with my FaceBook my account showed no indication that an Order had been placed, I received numerous error messages when I tried accessing my account from email notifications (that somehow did come through). The list goes on and on. I sent emails to customer service that still have not been answered, however now that I have filed a dispute to get my money back Fiverr customer service quickly responded indicating that my account is frozen. I am done and thoroughly disappointed.
Tip for consumers:
It did not work for me.

It is worst... than i ever seen in my life... there is no any seller protection at all. They are charging hell lot of money for every order from the seller. Why not from buyer? Even they are taking money from seller there is no seller protection... seller can be scamed easily... fiverr not loosing any thing, only seller loosing huge effort and money... i have already filed cyber crime police complaint against this israel based company... i want all the victims support to close this company... this site is hosting on go daddy servers... i can file case on them... i am trying for court orders to take an israel police action on them. I will slap those guys for sure... i lost huge amount on fiverr... customer support not responding at all.

This company has hacked my checking account. I never heard of them til I looked at my bank statement today. How they got my checking account number I have no idea, I don't bank online. My bank has initiated a fraud investigation,

Most enquiries ask endless questions and ask for highly involved tasks to be completed, but then never actually book. The small number that do book, specify the tasks extremely nebulously and then deliberately request endless revisions to try and push your buttons and waste your time. Save yourself agro by finding quality individuals who respect you in business.

I wrote to Fiverr about a scammer who tried to buy a gig from me. I reported him to 'customer service' instead of removing him they disabled my account with no reason. I have gigs that I've paid for and cannot access them and also a job I did and awaiting payment.
All they do is spew the same crap about how I've giving no answers to my questions. They are a nightmare and no idea of how to do customer service. Fiverr is a lirre!

Scam. You pay for a gig, they seller delays, then offeres refund.If you take refund it is stuck in fiverr's system forever without ever a change to get it back. If you wait for the artwork, it is corrupted or crap.

Beware Fiverr filter out the worst reviews!
I had a terrible experience, was presented with Plagiarised content! I cancelled the gig and wanted to write a bad review to warn others about the seller, only to be told by Fiverr, if you cancel a gig you cannot leave a review!
So basically, those who would give low reviews are NOT ALLOWED TO!
This is obviously a way Fiverr attempt to improve their sellers reviews.
Tip for consumers:
Make sure you ask for samples of their work.
Do NOT believe the Star Ratings as they are manipulated

I hired these guys for making my online store. We agreed in the beginning for the specific content which was to make a store in another language. I provide them with all the language material and all the translations that they had to add to the site. At the end they just google translated some things and the rest they left it in english. Horrible mess of a store that I can't use now. I was messaging them and contacting and all they were saying were lies such as we are not in the office, wait for couple of days etc. etc. And Then we came to the point that I cant cancel the order anymore because it has been too long since the order was made. Total rip off - dont use ECCOMMERCEXPERT1 all they do is promising promising until its too late to write a bad review of them or cancel the order, the worst experience ever!

Fiverr is a scam. The website enables sellers to scam buyers. I hear the other way around to. It is a scammers paradise and the Fiverr website apparently thrives on this environment. Avoid at all costs.

I was about to make a purchase with this guys who promised to put our website on first page of google in seven days, Travel Ventours is our website, but they replied totally different, It was my first time to message them and they replied with a total different website and is apologizing for the delay and will redo some of the links.
That made me decide to do further research first before moving forward, tahnks to website like sitejabber, it help me decide not to push thru with the purchase.
I am also in process of hiring a video explainer, I am wondering if I would experience the same thing, but I have a friend who already purchased a video explainer and it looks pretty good.

I just used the site for the first time to get a custom design for my business cards. I was not satisfied with the original design and the "package" said unlimited revisions. However, to reject the job for revisions it says $5. I messaged the designer and it was like pulling teeth to get a new design. You can go to a resolution center but the seller can reject your request. Then, Fiverr automatically closes the order and when going back and forth with customer service was pointless. The rep said "The order will not be canceled based on personal taste." IT IS A CUSTOM DESIGN! Is personal taste not the point of hiring a designer! Go to vistaprint!

I paid for 2 blog posts and only received one blog post. C'mon, it's simple math- 1 + 1 = 2 When I requested a revision, Uniquefav (the seller) stated that they delivered my order. They also claimed to have perfect grammar and spelling skills. However, the blog post did not make any sense as there were multiple errors. I assumed there was a mix-up and the seller would revise. Instead, the seller claimed they delivered my whole order. I gave the seller a chance to redeem themselves and I was polite about the situation even though I felt scammed. Keep in mind, Fiverr does not reimburse payment, they give credit only.

The support is horrible. Whatever money you earn by doing projects for others, these guys are swallowing. They have very irresponsible support, they don't respond to the queries. They cheat by holding the earnings by the freelancers. They release the earnings for sometime and after the guys accumulate good earnings, they will not release it. They keep it for themselves.

I ordered a resume from booms a and sent two pretty complete resumes. It really just needed to be formatted and a cover letter which was originally listed in the price. She claimed my resume is"complex" and asks for $55 more dollars. The one resume had all my job info and the first was the exact same thing with one less job written by a professional years ago. I just wanted an update. So of course they put in your fivrr account and not your credit card. It's a scam to steal your money. She had no intention of doing the job. A high school student could have done it. I was just busy and wanted someone to do it for me. Now I am out money and I have to do it. Life lesson- avoid fivvr or is it scammer?

Very mixed bags. Lots of fake stuff you can buy. You can buy fake followers for your Facebook site (they do not interact; the numbers just show up). I bought some tweets about my new blog and then, after the fact, found out that I bought tweets to a twitter site that did NOTHING but tweet about new blogs. This person could easily have bought the fake followers and then charged everyone else $5 to tweet to essentially non-existent people. WATCH this site. Be very careful.

Sure. We tried it today. Not surprised at the add-ons and handling cost of $12 but furious that my "refund" is not a refund of what I paid and then cancelled the order. I don't ever want to use the service again and I want my credit card refund of $25. I don't want a credit. I want my money refunded. I think I make myself clear. A refund is not credit. A credit is not a refund. Boo Hiss to the owners of Fiverr!
Tip for consumers:
Yeah, don't. Find somewhere that doesn't take your money upfront and then doesn't refund it.

We contracted with a FIVERR Seller AHSAN7777 to redesign our website. After taking our money he lied about delivery several times. He even claimed to have delivered the service giving our same website design as the delivery. Ridiculous. After approximately 2 weeks we contact FIVERR and filed a complaint. It took them 6 days to respond and then said there was nothing they could do to get our money back from this person because it took too long even though he took our money without delivering the service. AHSAN7777 remains on the FIVERR site, to scam others. Even after we provided document evidence from their own site of his statements- lies and theft of funds. They did absolutely nothing and even blamed us for the problem! Ridiculous, like we lied and stole our own funds. Beware!

I complained on fiverr about this issue i requested many times to get my money return, but they are not responding correctly. This means fiverr has not responsibly about sellers earned payment, so guys dont trust on this community they are also fraud, Fiverr is fraud community dont register on this site.

I chose a "seller" who according to her profile could do what I requested, heck she had a sample that was perfectly like what I wanted. I emailed her, she said she could do it just like the sample, but when she sent me back the finished product it looked nothing like what the sample looked like. I so I asked for a refund. Fiverr gave me a "store credit". I asked for a complete refund but I still have not heard back from Fiverr, nor have I received my refund - now I have to go through the hassle of contacting my credit card to nullify the transaction. I will call this fraud. Stay away from this site.
