Hired someone Ammad Z to create an resume. What a nightmare? Extremely rude, unprofessional, extremely low level of work and yet she demands to be paid. I have had some great work done through PPH but this one sadly has ruined my experience. I have advised no refund. But I dont have a resume i can use, I have lost the job i wanted to apply for as it has been weeks now, when asked for review her behaviour is extremely aggressive and unprofessional (may be she will start swearing soon) and this is all after three reviews and constant feedback which she refuses to take...

As a freelancer who has the chance to compare People per Hour with another freelancer site, I am now 100% sure that I will quit my account at this site after I can get my money. (God knows when?) First I have to wait until someone solves my problem about a technical issue. Then I have to wait - I don't know how long, because no one gives an exact timing - someone approves my accounts, then if I can find my buyer online cause the work will be completed weeks ago, until I complete all these very easy processes, hopefully I will reach my money months later then I finish my work.
I can understand the workload to a certain extent but if solving a very easy problem takes this much, I can't imagine a harder problem. I'm so sorry to say that but they should find a solution to the workload.
If I have read the peoples comments here about this site, I would never have created an account.

Quite satisfied with this site, although far from perfect. It has a nicer look and an easy and direct way to work with clients and to get credit from. I feel that moderation is a bit too far to a point of annoyance. One major issue is that there's a verification requirement for some new clients, and the site will not release you the funds once they are released by the client until they go through an annoying verification process, which most don't bother to do (by uploading a few identification documents, etc.). This is a major concern which I have discussed with a senior agent without a solution that I could accept. So, I have decided not to invite my own clients (from classifieds and my website) to join the site. Another major issue is the proposal credits system, which by the end of the 3rd week or so you're unable to bid on projects even if you send out a proposal once every 3-5 days or so. They are also irreversible, meaning that if you cancel some of your bids, you will still not get your credits back. This turns out to be even a bigger issue when a client wants to work with you and you're unable to send the proposal to get started right away -- instead, you will have to ask them to create a private work stream and forward you the invitation, unless you "buy" more proposal credit. They must make the platform more user friendly, at least for the established freelancers.

They have many ways to steal your money. I accepted a job, and client paid in escrow. I started work and completed. After client approved invoice and gave me good feedback and got ofline. After 2 days, the website cancelled invoice saying that client was not verified. Then i asked them and one of their member said that wait for 16 days, if client dont verify in this time, your money will be given to you. I waited and after 16 days, they closed client's account and said that as clients account is closed, they cannot verify that i completed the work or not, nd did not paid me.
I highly recommend to leave this website. They do same with clients. After client pay in their website, they ask too many documents like passport, ID card, utility bill, bank statement, income tax statement, etc. and if you will not send them all documents on your name, they will close your account and will eat all money.
Dont put your money in risk. There are many other freelancing platforms better and trusted than this. Try them.
And for freelancers, please switch from peopleperhour, as i have experienced what they do with money.

Peopleperhour.com never provided any service yet I was billed over $2000 to my visa for NOTHING. They will not let you cancel the account, and it is impossible to contact customer service, in fact no matter how you try to contact customer service it just sends you back to your account page. I have tried to cancel since day one, and I never hired anyone or posted anything, yet I have been billed over $2000 and I am STILL TRYING TO CANCELL. This website is designed to get you to give your credit card, but even if you do not get ervice you can't cancel and they will ignor all cancellation requests. I am having to cancel my credit card to stop the billing and I am warning all people to stay away from peopleperhour.com

Amateurs and once again amateurs. They block my account. They could not find the fault for 6 months. Then they asked me for proof of my identity, proof of my home address and my credit card details. I am sorry I am a Buyer who pays in advance who the heal they are asking for such sensitive information. On the top of that try to find out anything about PPH registration country, address, email or a telephone. STRONGLY DO NOT RECOMMEND

Fake website, this website is a completely scam, I was invited by my friend, I have paid to a seller who provide translate service, after the process done, payment rejected and the sell's and my accounts get blocked, and no money come back, PPH said we broke rules, well... its just a translate job. Anyway, dont you think you should refund not just taking the money away? I have tried contact PPH about my money, they never talked about refund,

As a buyer many times I had problems with freelancers.
Always I tried contacting PPH for help, but when they dont have chat or 24hour email - So I found my self stuck waiting for them a week just for a reply. And that every reply you send you have to wait.
When you have issues with sellers, you cant trust them to mediate. They will tell you that you have to give a seller 2 revisions to make. But many times its not the problem at all. And even if you agree and seller disagrees you can find your self without the money and without the job.
One big Issue is the sellers that many times curse and use offensive language and PPH dont do anything about it. I found my self humiliated many times with a seller who font want to work and PPH protecting him and not answering as usual.
STAY AWAY.

I'm partially working at the moment, and combine it with my college. Tried a lot of websites for freelancers. This one was recommended by my good friend who is in the same boat. I'm satisfied at the moment and it helps me get orders to earn some pocket money and improve my prof skills as a beginner in design. Recommend this place to you too.

I've used all the major freelancing platforms out there and PPH is my favorite along with Fiverr. It has currently the lowest commission rate (15%) compared to Fiverr's and Upwork's 20%, so more value for both buyers and sellers. Unlike other services, it doesn't hold your earnings for too long and often the earned amount is available for withdrawal on the same day as completed. The platform functions well if you're a freelancer. The only issue I experienced is that sometimes message notifications are extremely late when it gets to your personal email, so you have to be on the lookout for messages. PPH seems to be relatively new with a developing client base, so rarely does a job get posted in my field. However, I get contacted from time to time by genuine clients.
