Thank you for your messages to me and in faith I have good feelings about your company ....

Dear Pissedconsumer, I have used Fiverr for almost 12 years for I am an author and a writer and still, However, Fiverr has gone wild against me for the reason that my bank has declared and stop to get the $ 24.60 as fraud. The seller Sami666 was working my small project that charged me for $ 20.00 as I have approved it.

But then, I did not realized that he cancelled this order and replace it with $ 70.00. I was sick then and in the box he delivered that I have not opened even now that I did not approve for their is a part that I have not sent to complete the video. Bu,t then Fiverr has already charged my credit card without my approval. Please continue our communication for this is important that another Fiverr seller was trying to ask more money for another video that I asked him to merge for $ 30.

and took me out of Fiverr via his email fraud and nasty to get more money and broke the terms of Services of Fiverr as enclosed.

He has been harrassing me for more money because I tried to help him and when I iin God's name I sent him $ 80, Via Paypal, he lured me more and more and I believed that Paypal sensed that he was scaming me, Paypal held the money to protect me, These are cruel people. God bless!

Pros:
  • Some sellers are good and some are not
  • Phone outside fiverr
  • Sellers will take email
Cons:
  • Fiverr are very rude to buyers
  • There is no free speech in fiverr
  • Sellers not qualified to do work refusing to cancel

Preferred solution: Deliver product or service ordered

User's recommendation: Fiverr is a money grabber for sure that people like me must be careful .

Freelancer lies about order delivery

AI Highlights
  • - Ordered Mar 16; virus reappeared after Mar 30.
  • - Elvan claimed Apr 3 finish; access gone; cancellation declined.

I ordered from *** on March 16th for my websites attack. He worked on it until March 30th.

He delivered once but the virus reappeared.I hired a new security freelancer on April 2nd, we changed my WordPress account credentials that day. *** said he finished my work on April 3rd. It's a lie because he didn't have access to my account anymore. It took 4 days for the new freelancer to restore my website with everything.

I cancelled my order for results failure but *** declined it. What is the next step?

I attached a few pictures of Elvan delivery results when my website was under attack (6 first pictures).

The last picture is my restored website after the security freelancer work .

Scam artist on FIVERR

AI Highlights
  • - Cannot recommend due to poor communication, missed deadlines, incomplete features; revisions ignored; payments outside Fiverr reduce protections.

Caution: I would strongly advise exercising caution before hiring this freelancer. I originally hired him after he contacted me with an AI-generated prototype of my website.

The concept looked promising, so I decided to move forward with the project. Unfortunately, my experience after that was very disappointing. Communication became inconsistent, deadlines were repeatedly missed, and many of the features outlined in our agreement were either incomplete or did not function as intended. I also requested revisions on multiple occasions, but those requests were largely ignored.

To make matters worse, after paying a portion of the project through Fiverr, I was persuaded to send additional payment directly to his bank account. That decision ultimately left me with far less protection than if I had kept all transactions within Fiverr.

Based on my experience, I cannot recommend this freelancer. If you decide to work with him, I strongly encourage you to keep all payments and communications on the Fiverr platform to ensure you have the protections Fiverr provides.

Loss:
$300

Preferred solution: Full refund

It is now June 1, and I never got a revision. The person stopped responding to my messages. I sent it to the [GEOGRAPHIC_DATA], and now they have declined it. I want my money back.

I did the work myself and got it completed, and I have no other work for them. Can you please look up my account and come up with a solution?

Hired professional to use AI?!

AI Highlights
  • - Hired for a professional Shopify site; colors and design were off.
  • - Paid $270; not worth the price and no refund or recommendation.

I hired her to help me create a Shopify account and make it look professional. And how I wanted it to, and she did everything, but what I asked her to I told her to do bright colors.

She used brown. I told her to make everything a certain way description. ***, it was all AI pathetic that y'all would even allow her to use y'all. A 5-year-old could have done as much as she did for $270.

Such a rip-off and would not even give me a refund. It's bullshit.

I'll definitely never recommend y'all. Don't use fiverr

Loss:
