Upwork has been my trusted platform for finding freelance opportunities and connecting with clients from around the world. The platform's vast network of clients and freelancers, comprehensive job listings, and secure payment system make it easy to find meaningful projects and build a successful freelance career. I appreciate Upwork's commitment to transparency and professionalism, as seen in its dispute resolution process and feedback system, which ensure fair and equitable transactions for both parties. Moreover, the platform's collaboration tools and communication features enhance teamwork and streamline project management. With Upwork, freelancing is not just a job—it's a rewarding and fulfilling career.
Business practices are arbitrary and unfair with the cost for freelancers of doing business on the site constantly increasing and various services and perks taken away. Not worth it for freelancers--and clients don't fare much better.

I have been working on upwork since 2011 and was one of the top frelancers on upwork, i got hired by a client for a very small amount of $50 and i completed the job in time, and got the money in my account,
Later i got an email that my financial transaction has been limited, i contacted the support and followed their instruction and my case was handeled by "Nel" he asked for the emails comunication screenshot and the work done by me.
I submitted all the screenshots and they asked me to wait and continue working, i continued working and in the meantime other 2 clients also paid me $50 each and days passed by no one replyed I patiantly waited for their asnwer and one day i got a message that the case has been resolved, i replyed asking how and why my account not resumed no one answered, the few days after i got a message from someone else by the name of"eric" that my account was suspended permanently.
They confiscated all the money not only by that client but from other clients too who are working with me for years.
Please help.
Thanks
