I'm so grateful for Upwork. I have managed to do so much with the earnings I got from carrying out projects on Upwork.

If you follow the Upwork regulations, it is an amazing opportunity. I've never had any issues with Upwork and I'd definitely recommend it.

I have never worked on a modern sequre and exciting platform like upwork. I think it is the best freelancing website
Even I recently started my career on Upwork, I feel that this is right place to successfully reach my goals, such learning new things, have good contacts and of course get paid. Support is great, community is large and if you follow the rules you are totally safe. The only drawback can be a difficult start for new members, so I think that support in the sense of a larger number of connects or a smaller commission would be a great thing. Anyway, a recommendation!

I have no problem with Upwork. Everything is going well with my work and easy transfer of payment. The best.
I've been working on Upwork for over ten years from its inception and Elance before that. I've had many good clients as well as a few not so good. Upwork leans toward supporting its clients a bit more than supporting the freelance workers. However, once you learn how to engage with the clients, that becomes less and less of an issue. The goal is to win the loyalty of the clients and build a client base that keeps coming back to you. Upwork encourages you to do that. If I can single out one thing that Upwork could do better, it's to vet their client base better and get rid of undesirables.
Upwork has gotten better since it went public. They have realized that their freelancers are as much a customer as their clients that post jobs.
I am working on Upwork since last 5+ years. Upwork is a great place to work, where one can find genuine clients and top class frrelancers.
Upwork payment protection is a great feature which allows the freelancers to work with more trust & joy.

Answer: They are horrible. Every freelancer I've gotten from Upwork has cost me more to fix the small job they have done. There's absolutely no customer service! I would stay away
Answer: This is not the place to inquire.
Answer: No, just 20% of your job when we talk about fixed price, and same for hourly but after some week it's been 10%
Answer: Go to Settings › Contact Info › Click the Close my account link. If you meet the requirements, click the button to confirm that you want to close your account.
Answer: I am a customer and have had a really horrible experience. Upwork claims a 100% guarantee before you pay anything. That is not true. The process is actually quite horrible. You put money in escrow. You only get your money back after a bad contract if the freelancer agrees to release the money. If the freelancer refuses, you get a bargain offer to still pay them something but still you are paying for a bad job you can't use. Then, if you refuse to bargain over a bad job, you are told that it will cost you an additional $389 to arbitrate with a 3rd party affiliate that the customer (me), the freelancer (scammer) and Upwork (ripoff enabler) has to pay. I took it all the way to arbitration with the end result being that Upwork decided that I was just too uninformed to know their policy and that they would give me a one time only refund of my original amount. What they didn't tell me what that they just gave me a "credit" of my original amount and that was the end. So I am still out the original amount and can't get my money back. This sight is a ripoff. Plain and simple.
Answer: Because of their policy changes which are geared towards the client rather than the freelancer. They have dug their own grave with their policy changes of late.
Answer: Go to Get Paid on PC or Mobile, you will see 3 dots in front of your payment method, tap to select edit/remove to change them. Go to Billing Method on PC under Billing Section and tap three dots to change (edit/remove). Thanks
Answer: Be part and see, dont look at the sold mine reviews people, upwork can bush you to reach.
Answer: I agree with Sam. This place is a scam. They have bad reviews everywhere. Katrina is probably working for them!
