Fiverr

Poor service.No access to telephone or realtime interaction with customer service.
Attempts to pay are convoluted and result in double billing or incorrect (overcharge) billing.
Probably a scam.If not... the Bozo Brigade.

Honestly I don't know what's wrong with sellers on fiverr.
I needed a website in short terms, contacted seller, he gave me custom order and I have agreed to pay whatever he requested. Timeline 2 days for 1 page website, 5 days later its not ready. Seller tells me to cancel the order and order again so it will give him more time to finish and not get into a trouble for late delivery. That's what I did, and guess what he tells me he doesn't to do it anymore. Customer support cancelled second order for him. When I reached to support they explained that seller cannot deliver. What a waste of 5 days. Totally useless service with poor support. Do they screen sellers beforehand? Why would sellers post gigs if they are not capable to deliver? Should they be able to sell gigs at all

I was a successful seller on Fiverr with the name "ammarishot" until they disabled my account and promised they would give funds to my account within 365 days (I had earned around 100 USD in my account). It's been over 2 years and I still haven't gotten the money that I worked so hard for. This is terrible business practice and I don't know how they're still up.

I think some of the buyers have found an old trick not to pay and make the sellers do some samples for them and they just flee from the scene. They never come back and ever give their request to you to get it done. I am a translator and I found myself alone in this field when I did a part of their project for two of the buyers on Upwork and Fiverr. She/he just requested my FB and TW?! To verify my profile!. I had a plan to make some money for my children guys!

Remember the following: You would never ever get your money back.
No refund process whatsoever. Say goodbye to your money.
I sent over five emails to the refund department and over a month's waiting period, and still no action.

I completed a gig and was paid for it on February 9, and will not get the money from Fiverr until March 9. I am absolutely outraged. Not only that, but Fiverr extracted a fee of $4 for their exceptionally awful services.
Basically, Fiverr is taking advantage of a job market that encourages employers to pay freelancers peanuts without the employer having to pay any taxes to the federal government. Fiverr takes a cut from the freelancer and the employer gets away without having to pay any fees. Shame on you, Fiverr!
The website itself is almost impossible to navigate.

Cannot Cancel orders once submitted - strange software. In Help and Support - in my Orders there is Cancellations - but since there are no cancellations in my account it does not open that up. Irrespective - once submitted an order it cannot be cancelled. Sometimes turn around time is less than 16 hrs - when you need item clearly within the next few hrs - I just submitted an order and now cannot cancel it

I was so happy for using fiverr because i was earning good money but it doesn't stay for so long. Fiverr blocked my account with the total money of $418.5 (available and pending clearance that was about to clear in couple of days) and also 281.5 as upcoming earnings extra. I submit a ticket about this and they reply me that i have made "fraudulent purchase" (i never purchased anything from fiverr). I reply them and asked to provide me the prove about it and they never reply me back and the most worst thing they blocked my IP address so i can not access my account from my laptop or mobile but i can login from other computer which i never used for fiverr.
Please do not use fiverr.

I use fiver 3 times, my first experience was very positive, I was super happy!
I order two services on the same day, one of the sellers did the best to try to deliver what I was expecting, the second one, didn't response, I tried to contact Fiver but they do not have a contact number support, I tried to send an email, it didn't work neither.
The idea is a great but no every seller has the experience or the same care for the customers. The experience will depend 100% of how lucky you are on finding someone who is there to provide the service that you paid for. Because it's no customer service to complain

I spent a good amount of time setting up my Fiverr account and watching videos they said my selling gig was published no issues and then a little while after i bought a logo for my profile, they decide to not approve my account. I think they do that to make money off of people buying logos for their profile since fiverr gets a cut of the money. Seems like a scam to me- written by BCDailyTarot

Several years back I started using fiverr because I live in a rural area and finding local creative talent was difficult. This week I went online and ordered a service. I paid the asking price, they added a huge fee. $2.75 on a $50. Next came the absolute chaos. There is an inbox, a task box, a messenger box, and 27 other places where messages between buyers and sellers can go and NONE OF THEM ARE CONNECTED - NONE OF THEM. I almost lost my mind. Sometimes communication was in one place then another then on my phone but not on the site. My Doer did a great job so I tipped $10, another fee $2.55 - on a $10 charge is ridiculous. I won't be back fivver.

I have been using Fiverr to get voiceovers and such and then I got a job where I needed some 3D work done. I found a seller with a job profile that matched the style I wanted, we talked he said he can do it then he gave me the complete opposite of what I asked. I asked for a refund and unfortunately Fiverr took his side, even if it is blatant that the work did not match what I wanted, plus when I wrote a bad review on the seller, Fiverr deleted it. Watch out

Ps. you can see the job description below and the items he gave me, you be the judge.

I offered a translation gig on fiverr, 800 words for $5, in 2 days max. A buyer picked up on it and ordered several gigs at once, several times. Since they always ordered several gigs I ended up being late on most of the orders, which led to a bad score. The buyer told me they didn't care and they were satisfied with my work, never left a positive review though. At one point I ended up in hospital for a few days and wasn't able to respond to another order the buyer had placed. They cancelled the order and left a bad review and now my gig's score is so low, that no one will order it ever again. Also fiverr keeps $1 for every gig you sell, which is basically 20% and far too much, and it takes at least 2 weeks until you get your money. Never again.

Beware of sellers and customer support on Fiverr. More than 80% of the sellers on Fiverr are conmen, scamsters, liars. They have a habit of marking the order as delivered without the exact delivery of product &/services.The sellers will manipulate you to give them 5 star feedback, force suspicious, fraudulent terms and sometimes abuse you. Customer support just sits pretty over all this scam and blunder. Instead they give account closure warnings to unsuspecting buyers from time to time.

Don't want to cancel order and to receive order money you need to have 150$ in your card and to ad on it they say take order free

If you have a tedious task you just don't want to spend the time one, 5$ will get it done on fiverr. A brilliant concept and a great way to crowd source simple work. I use it often and for the most part get quality work done that is really worth the money.

Their site is impossible to traverse or communicate with anyone. They put in a wrong user ID and password information in my account. I have tried repeatedly to get in to my account but I cannot get in. Fiverr was able to charge my American Express quite easily but hey will not communicate with me, nor will they make things right!
The person in India with an American name was misleading and could not understand me either.

Fiverr is the worst if you are looking for freelancer to do some digital work for you.
1-The site is setup in a deceiving way, what you see is not what you get... things turn out to be even worst when trying to deal with the freelancers or the Fiverr staff.
2-Not very good sellers there either... you find the odd good one there but in general they go with the way the site is setup to fool you into paying more.

My advice: DO NOT USE FIVERR.

Skeptical as i am, I hired 5 designers all of them did horrible no effort work, was told i have to accept and they get to keep the money. So nothing I can use and they keep the money. Mind you every artist of the 5 uses extortion techniques, You buy 3 logos they only show one and say they will give you the other 2 only if you accept the order and rate 5 stars.

All in all they took our companies money not a big deal. Was worth it, to know I shouldn't ever use them. Is hard to remain professional when I've never had training on how to handle extortion of services.

This is one of the worst companies I have ever come across. They read all your messages and because they misinterpreted what some people were asking for they deleted my account without warning(but allowed other vendors to stay on the site when they were offering the exact same service), they withheld my earnings in their account for close to 2 months and claimed that it was my fault for not knowing how to use my computer correctly to withdraw the funds, and they are extremely unprofessional in their practices. They also take a huge cut of the earnings and then they won't even release them in a timely way. I had to wait 8 weeks, and the only reason I got my money was because I told them Id report them to the BBB and other online sites, which I plan to do for as long as it takes to make this company realize they can't treat people this way.

Not only is The customer service is atrocious but they guaranteed that I, as a seller, would get my money 14 days after the sale. They pushed back my payment, then they didn't pay me on the day i was supposed to get the money. I would suggest only buying from Fiverr and only from those you trust because they won't give you a refund if you don't like the service.

It all depends on what kind of fiverr gig provider you find as there are honest people and then there are useless con artists that will just waste your time. However Fiverr always refunds you if you are not happy with the gig you purchased.

The sellers on Fiverr are unprofessional and mostly just simply scammers. The sellers are aggressive and use abusive language because they know Fiverr will support them. Fiverr charge commission from both sides from sellers and also from buyers. I ordered on Fiverr simple Forex indicator and when the seller was unable to complete order he said me literally "go $#*! yourself!" Even I reported the seller behaviour, Fiverr didn't anything and seller continue selling. Many gigs are from the same sellers or even Fiverr own accounts pretending the sellers.
