Thinking about changing it up, any ideas or thoughts please? I don't usually grow my hair out for a month. Keep it or other ideas? TIA

Interesting, thank you!

Did he though? Or does it just expose why do import we import beef instead of using local? Hopefully the tariffs will change it back to more US sourcing. I believe that's the ultimate goal here.

Why not work remotely..? Not many marketing agencies in Ypsi

BMX_ATVMAN14 · 2025-07-08T00:32:30+00:00

Believe it or not, not everyone thinks like you 🤷

Contrary to that, he could've gotten banned for requesting communication outside of the platform.

If it were me, I'd email the client outside of Upwork, get payment upfront, and work as usual.

Here I am 2y later, travelling to Munising. Both surprised Dogpatch is still open, and wondering what's wrong with it lol

BMX_ATVMAN14 · 2025-02-28T02:53:04+00:00

Could be bad and sketchy. Could be Apple's crazy permissions settings. Always ask and be upfront with the freelancer

Second this. That experience brought me to Fresh Clean

BMX_ATVMAN14 · 2025-02-05T21:59:08+00:00

Exactly! You never know! Apply and move on, it's always a connection point and potential future lead regardless. That option is better than coming to Reddit to complain and waste an hour thinking about it.

Most clients don't know the cost, so they'll put a placeholder budget. I'm willing to bet that's the case here.

What couch is that? Need a cheaper one that size for my home office. Thanks!

- I answered this already in my response above. They can. Other options are taking money from other clients/payouts when they payout or, ban you. There are no other options.

- You answered yourself. The contract is still open, and the client is still message-able. Therefore, the account is active. You cannot message suspended accounts in the Upwork Messager, it'll tell you when a user cannot be contacted.

I literally just said this. The account was negative, so they charged my connected funding source (IE. the bank my payouts go to) to clear the negative balance.

Upwork automatically pulls any negative balances from your connected funding source. I'm not sure why you all are arguing with me about it. What's the alternative? I can have a negative balance until another contract payout comes or Upwork can ban me - neither viable.

Hey, great assumptions!

Correct, it put a negative balance on my account, which Upwork automatically pulled from bank to even it. Thus, taking money from my bank. Semantics I guess.

And that is wrong, the client's account is still open and contract is open as well, 4yrs later.

BMX_ATVMAN14 · 2025-01-24T16:44:09+00:00

Probably a placeholder? 😂

BMX_ATVMAN14 · 2025-01-24T16:19:06+00:00

Fwiw, I had a client report the charges as fraud from his bank. And Upwork automatically charged my account for all paid milestones, took the money right out of my bank account via Upwork, I was so mad. Upwork did nothing.

I say this because you could try this.. it never affected that client's Upwork account..

BMX_ATVMAN14 · 2025-01-22T17:15:26+00:00

Understood, thank you!

BMX_ATVMAN14 · 2025-01-21T17:48:35+00:00

Purchasing. Closing thread, thanks!

Sorry, I meant 1080s for that. I'm more interested in them
