“Frustrated”

Elizabeth W.
8/25/24

I used Freelancer for a rush PowerPoint. The deadline was crucial. With no ability on this site to talk or email my consultant would just disappear after 2:00 with promises to get right back to me. The job was late and the team disappointed. Freelancer sent a "no reply " message stating I would only pay half and then charged my card the full amount. I tried to contaact the support line as it is the only way to contact and there are no agents available. I had to call my cc company to reverse the charge and still waiting. No communication on this site to resolve issues.

I recently had the pleasure of meeting with Mr. Jonny a representative from freelancer.com, and I must say it was an incredibly positive experience. His professionalism, expertise, and clear communication skills stood out throughout the discussion. He took the time to listen attentively to every detail and provided valuable insights that added a lot of clarity to our conversation.

What impressed me most was his ability to address complex topics with simplicity, ensuring that everyone involved was on the same page. His approach was collaborative and solution-focused, which made the meeting both productive and enjoyable. I truly appreciate his commitment to fostering a constructive dialogue and look forward to future interactions with him.

Thank you, Mr. Jonny, for your time and guidance and for warding me the Rising Star badge!

You are experiencing an issue where the description of some projects is automatically removed when trying to publish them on the "Freelancer" platform. Despite following the site's guidelines, the description is deleted without any clear notification or explanation. This issue hinders the project publishing process and affects your ability to effectively communicate with potential freelancers.

I had an issue with a negative review from a fake client that was affecting my profile. I reached out to Freelancer.com Support. Magenta was extremely understanding and patient throughout the conversation, providing clear explanations about the feedback system's integrity and the steps they could take to help me.

Although there are policies in place to maintain credibility, Magenta took the extra step to contact the client on my behalf, which I greatly appreciated. The professionalism and empathy shown during this interaction reassured me that Freelancer.com cares about its users and their concerns.

Thank you, Magenta S, for your support and for taking the time to assist me. It's service like this that makes me feel valued on the platform.

This was my first time hiring a freelancer on freelancer.com and I was not too sure about the process of setting up milestone payments and how that works. I contacted support and Magenta S. Was there to help me. She guided me through the process and cleared all my doubts with utmost patience. She is very good at what she does.

I was having problem with authenticating my card. Livechat on freelancer.com is slow, so I had to email them at *******@freelancer.com.

Frieda S. Got it touch with me and without a hassle, my card got authenticated and verified, no questions asked. I really loved the quick help!

Next time you have an issue, you can simply mention Frieda for your help and you won't be disappointed.

She is a clear expert, kind, and quick. Macy M. As customer support checked all my inquiries and solved my request beneficially. Thank you very much

Tip for consumers:
I first need to check it with my bank to understand how it works exactly

Products used:
I did an exam on Freelancer.com to verify my English knowledge.
Due to computer issues, I was charged twice.
Finally, customer support returned the second charge

I needed help with getting an overpayment reversed from an extra milestone I accidentally created during project. Using the chat function was way easier than I thought it was going to be; I usually like speaking to someone on the phone. Olivia was helpful and patient while I tried to find the information she needed. I'm a first time user of Freelancer and have been impressed with all of my experiences to date, from using the preferred artist to customer service. Thank you.

The questions asked for the Verification were reasonably good to verify an account—a detailed verification interview conducted by Mr Russell V. He elaborated on the benefits involved and informed all aspects of the verification process.
