“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.

Olivia is most helpful in answering questions and tending to concerns!
Freelancer is a wonderful place to explore work opportunities relating to one's fields of interest, expertise, passions and skills. It has opened many doors for me and revealed new avenues of remote project work that I may never even have considered had I not discovered Freelancer!

I recently had the pleasure of working with Xavier B. From the support team, and I couldn't be more impressed. From the moment I reached out, Xavier was attentive, knowledgeable, and genuinely committed to resolving my issue. He took the time to listen to my concerns and provided clear, effective solutions. His professionalism and patience made a challenging situation much easier to handle. I highly recommend Xavier for anyone needing support—his dedication truly sets him apart!

I think Freelancer need to find innovate ways to stop bogus clients with malicious intentions. A client immediately sent me a URL and key to check the application if its something I can work on. Realized when my antivirus flagged the application that it could be malware.

I'm still not sure what's the impact I got from the whole thing. I haven't log in in a while and its discouraging on the first day back to be welcome by such condition. However, I'm really in need of a project as my previous contract expired with my employer. I'm left jobless at the moment. I must say Nicola, one of your support team members tried to put me at easy and explained that already there was an action taken. Thank you Nicola and the whole Freelancer team.

Olivia T. Was very helpful as I find it difficult to understand the platform. And I got lost in translation about the Freelancer charges after the free trial. I appreciate the understanding and that you have agreed to refund the payment to me. I will recommend you just for that...after I see the money in my account ;)
Thank you Olivia T.

I had a milestone deposit returned by the Freelancer. Not a problem at all. Just not a skills fit. I wanted that money refunded but got caught in a can't verify your identity nightmare. I know those people were tired of my photos of my driver's license, passport, keycode + passport + me... etc. So, tonight I tried a different method and ended up working with Darra.
He fixed it and said I would receive my deposit with the day. I'm embarrassed to say how many days I had been working on this.
Kudos and Thanks to Darra. Julia

First of all, at the card authentication page I added the amount that deducted from my account but the system said failed 3 times and I can't continue the authentication process. Then I asked to the support and agent Magenta replied. She checked the processes and asked my transactions detail and last 4 digits of my card. I gave to her the require information and she made the authentication manually. Now my card is authenticated and the process took about 5 to 10 minutes. I am satisfied that my case is solved and thanks to agent Magenta.

I was facing problem with the video verification of my withdrawals for a week and previously had a chat with freelancer support staff which resulted in nothing but just waiting so I initiated support chat again today and Olivia T responded me promptly and got my issue resolved right away. She should be admired for her skills and support

I responded to a chat from a Freelancer associate left a month prior because I was interested in pursuing a Verified status. Jethro responded within minutes, despite my missing him by several weeks. Jethro answered all of my questions and even offered incentive to join the program at that moment of which I decided to pull the trigger on. We'll see if the new status increases my chances of winning bigger and better jobs over the next few weeks and months but as far as taking care of their customers, I have no complaints and hope to run into Jethro again during future inquiries.

My request to the support service for a refund of the deposit to the credit card was not accidental and inconvenient for me, since I myself made a mistake, i.e. I mistakenly created a milestone. But, to my surprise, the issue was resolved very quickly. Jayce L. Helped me and very competently and professionally. Thank you Jayce L. I am glad that such specialists work here, Freelancer Support.
