On January 5,2021, I created a contest on freelancer.com. The contest was to design a logo for my real estate investment company. The 1st day I was so excited because I had so many entries that had came in. But after searching other websites I noticed that most of the designs were just duplicated logos with the name of my company placed with it. I notified freelancer.com about the issue and was told since it was a GUARANTEED contest that they were unable to do anything about it except to give me a "7 day extension" and a "top contest upgrade." I asked for the "Top contest upgrade" but at the end of the contest it was clear that it did nothing to help the situation. Every one of my top choices were unoriginal. The worst part is I had other contestants showing me proof and giving me links to find where the unoriginal so called designers were finding designs to use. But the people that were telling on others were doing the exact same thing. I know $317.74 doesn't sound like a lot but I would rather keep my money instead of throwing it away. I asked for a full refund but was only offered a "7 day extension" and giving a "TOP CONTEST UPGRADE." I declined and responded that I will make it my duty to warn others about this site.
