The reviews here just DON'T MATCH UP with other sources. See attached screenshots from the BBB (Better Business Bureau), Yelp, Consumer Affairs and The RipOff Report.

BBB - 1.11 stars out of 5
Yelp - 1 out of 5 stars
Consumer Affairs - 2.4 out of 5 stars
RipOff Report - 126 complaints
Go to these sites and do a search for Upwork.

I was with Elance and smelled slime when the merger took place. I never joined.
A few years ago the ratings for Upwork on this site were in the toilet.
On these other sites I've listed, they are STILL in the toilet.

On the phone with my credit card company now trying to block the next charge. Same story as others. I've tried to cancel my account with three emails and three phones calls. No contact link of any kind on their website. I got their phone number from my credit card statement, not from their website.
You call their phone number and get an answering machine telling you to email them.
You can go to the Terms and Conditions page and there's a link there that is supposed to be where you can cancel. But it only allows you to add new payment methods. SCAMMERS

Tip for consumers:
AVOID

Products used:
I signed up last year and then never used it, so I tried canceling and it's impossible. They have no contact info on their website. I found their phone number on my credit card statement and called, only to get an answering machine asking that you send an email to *******@skillshare.com. That didn't work, no replies to three attempts. Won't respond at all. Had to freeze my credit card to stop them.
