suspended account

They are doing same to me. You are lucky, I am not only suspended only, they are humiliating me like criminals. They have asked me to send images holding ID card with a number. Then they asked me to send the Bank statement holding a number. I saw that in movies when accused were brought to police station. :S . Feeling ashamed just for the some bucks that are my living. :S

suspended account

Same to me is happening..My account has been suspended and no one is responding...They are giving an email just saying that your account has been suspended due to suspicious transaction. My employer confirmed them twice that at least give the money back so that he could pay me other way. They are doing nothing and just said we haven't received any email from your employer though he emailed them kept me in CC. I communicated with Live Chat many times and they just say they haven't got any access to my account.. What the hell is this!!!
There should be some legal authority who can charge over them..They took charge in advance and give this type of pathetic service to us...

bad service

I confirm the above. They assume you are guilty until proven innocent... sometimes even the proofs do not help you. More? Dummy answers from support, ripoff fees, privacy trashing... stay away from Freelancer.com

Hi Shuvodu52. My name is Emir and I work for Freelancer.com. I came across your post here and we appreciate the feedback.

Please be assured that Freelancer.com will only suspend or freeze accounts to do further account verification or investigate the transactions done through the site. Part of the procedures requires employers to validate the work that you did for him. Once we get the details we requested from your employer and we will continue with our account verification process. Once everything has been cleared , we will unsuspend your account.

From what you related, we find it odd that our Customer Support did not receive your employer’s emails.

I’d like to help. Please send an email to [email protected] with your ticket IDs. I will ensure a customer support manager looks into this and helps with your account and funds.

Thank you very much and rest assured we will be getting this resolved for you as soon as possible.
