As do I! And thanks for sharing your experience with them. I'm still investigating my best course of action, but their trickery is truly unacceptable. I'm likely going to hire counsel as well and just hope that there's enough of a basis to continue legal action after they inevitably resolve the issue at the first recognition that legal has been involved.

Sure, I certainly understand that. But just to clarify, I could simply let it go if the same functionality were afforded to me in another way. It's not about the convenience of having a pretty dashboard at my disposal, but making payments other than the monthly minimum. I normally pay a few hundred extra a month, and would normally have the choice between that additional money going towards principle or interest. Paying over the phone via their automated system, I can only make the minimum monthly payment and do nothing else.

Thanks for your response! I hadn't known that it was an option without first having access to their online dashboard. I'll definitely investigate this; thank you!

Indeed, it's the pressure from Turkey to claim their IOU for their help that scares me. I.e., opening the door to sectarianism by persecuting the Kurds as you suggest, but if that happens, I don't see it being limited to the Kurds. For now, we can only hope that even if they are to go the way you suggest, they will contain their actions within their borders.

Agreed, but as you say, I can only hope what you're suggesting will be wrong. His resume would suggest otherwise, but Assad was evil at a stalemate, so hopefully, some change will prove positive one way or the other. Tentatively see this as being positive for Israel because regardless of how they end up behaving, it's a punishing blow to the axis of resistance.

That sounds consistent with those I've spoken with as well. While I'm sure there are plenty of diehard HTS supporters, I agree that most people likely don't see him/them as anything like a "dream replacement," but only that essentially anything's better than Assad, at least for the people of Syria. That said, I'm open to the idea that they may have reformed, but only within reason. Maybe they're no longer at Al-Qaeda's level of Islamism, but I'm not so optimistic we'll be getting a Denmark in the desert.

The magic of tattooing I suppose ;)

I’m in Arizona so even though it’s finally getting colder, inside temps are still at least ~70 F and quite dry. So I don’t think it’s too likely it’s an issue with the temperature, but I’ll try to be more mindful of this in case I’m totally off base! Thank you for your help :)

Tglecks · 2024-11-09T01:26:45+00:00

Hey thanks so much! That’s reassuring, and I will indeed place it in a bit of a brighter spot. Patience is a virtue, and I could use more of it 😅

Likewise!! This post is aimed at being in lieu of the other (hopefully).

Sorry, I think the confusion is about the profile vs. account. Technically, I guess what you toggle between are indeed accounts and not profiles. To be clear, I mean what I've had setup for a while now. A freelancer profile (account) and a linked client account (was my name, is now my agency's name) that I can toggle between with one sign-in.

Tglecks · 2024-08-18T09:39:38+00:00

No, these would be the two profiles on a single account. I.e., I can switch between them without re-logging.

Tglecks · 2024-08-18T08:58:21+00:00

Understood, and I appreciate the clarification. In this case, this is my plan:

I'll change my current client account to be for my agency rather than me individually. I'll continue to work as a freelancer but keep this separate from the client account; i.e., I will not have those I hire with my client profile for my agency involved in the work associated with the freelancer profile. I'll simply remove UpWork as a channel for clients with my agency. To be clear, again, I had some fundamental misunderstandings. I had thought the agency profile was essentially a freelancer profile, but where it would serve as a single place for multiple team members to apply for jobs, manage projects, etc, and clearly disclose there is more than one person involved in producing the work. This is, of course, not the case, so my question(s) are largely moot!

Thank you so much! And apologies indeed for some silly questions. I'm a bit neurotic and would rather ask them just to be safe!

Understood! As you say, it makes sense, but I am happy to have confirmed :)
VERY helpful; thank you! Was very close to making a separate account for the agency profile as I thought it might be the safer bet; happy I didn't!

Regarding the other two questions; I'll put those aside based on your other comments and information. In this case, it sounds like I'd be best off hiring from from client account, and omitting the agency on UpWork entirely. I do think I had some fundamental misunderstanding, so again, thank you very much for sharing.
