A lot of the sellers are scammers. They advertise work for $6 then ask you for over $500 in when you contact them. One seller did a pitiful logo that was clearly unacceptable. I was refunded but once I lost my password Fiverr, is now making it difficult for me to access that account. The customer service is awful and they allow scammers. Most of the sellers are showing work that isn't there's and changing prices.
Hey guys, I don't think fiverr is a scam as I've used it without a problem, but it can be a little messy. I've been using fivesquid.com, which personally feels to me to be a much better and more trustworthy site. It's a British company that seems to tick all of the boxes for me. They seem to have just released a new version of fivesquid and I must say it looks pretty slick to me, so will be using it even more now.
Awful company, I will never do business with them. They hire incompetent designers who are only nice until they see money. Tey hire fly by night designers who are here today gone tomorrow sort of like a homeless shelter. Very disappointed with their customer support. In fact we got no support at all. Very rude and uncooperative company. I will never do business with this company ever again.
Big mistake.
I don't know why the bad reviews on here. I have used Fiverr.com since the site started. I had over six logos designed for my various companies as well as other marketing tools linked with Facebook and twitter as well as reviews and such. The vendors were more than helpful and most of the time I even tip them because the job was so good. The vendors that delivered me the logos more often than not would give me anywhere from 2-11 logos for only $5. That is a ridiculous price. I was charged over $300 for my very first company logo from a graphic design firm. So all in all I highly recommend choosing fiverr.com and giving it a shot.
The designers sent me a logo I asked for revisions. I didn't hear back after multiple messages, submitted a dispute with no response. Fiverr.com completed the order and then gave the designer 5 stars. Don't waste your money. Try another service and send a message to Fiverr.com.
I've had very rough experiences and a couple ok ones. It's really a crap shoot. I've had sellers on Fiverr tell me they can do the work (math) and then return the work 100% incorrect. I've also had sellers not deliver on time and try to make it look like they did (dishonest practices) to scam me out of my money. If you can, I'd avoid using Fiverr for anything important.
I was looking for a professional and expert who can help me out with my shopify store design and to make it high responsive. I lost money before i met this freelancer who help me out on everything i was looking for including marketing so i do generate sales as well. So i will like to review him here. He's so professional and delivers fast. You can trust him.
Thanks
It takes a lot of time to set yourself up on Fiverr. I was finally set to publish my gigs and I was promoted to take a test to establish I am capable of doing the work. I clicked on "take test" and got an error code. Customer support takes 12 hours to respond. I continued to get the error code, waiting an entire day to get a response each time. They just told me basically I'm screwed and have to wait 3 months to try again. I would find another site that cares about your small business.
Gee I wish I had read these reviews before I went with fiverr. My experience was very bad. The person did not follow my instructions and each revision got worse. Then I went on vacation and when I got back internet service I had an email that my order was finished because I didn't respond within 3 days! I asked for my money back but I doubt anything comes of it. Stay away.
Fiverr has so many issues with their service providers that I don't see them staying in business. Several of my projects have been incomplete, tried to strong arm for more money before completion or simply have not replied to the business. There is a sense of laziness and an attitude of "you should pay me, but that doesn't mean I should do your work."
The support behind Fiverr is no better. I have had missing refunds, support that refuses to acknowledge that my work was not provided and inability to back up the buyer. It's a bad ethic to have, especially considering that it's the buyers that are allowing their company to exist and most of the time, we are contacting them because of unsatisfactory work.
There are a lot of sites that offer the same services with much better support and actual work ethic that has to be matched.
