Incompetent, sporadic and terrible company. Avoid.
The developer I used and I had already paid for Milestone 3 gave up on my project. I started looking for a new developer and Fiverr blocked my account. I did not violate any of its T&Cs, I was simply looking for a replacement of the service. Since then I am trying to ask them to read the messages I sent to contractors, confirm that I acted in line with the T&Cs and reactivate my account. No response from them. They still owe me the money that they hold for Milestone 3!!

The Devil's Playground for Exploited Freelancers
After five excruciating years trapped in the Fiverr ecosystem, as both a buyer and a top-rated seller with 200+ glowing reviews, my verdict is unequivocal: RUN RUN RUN.
If you value your sanity, your skills, and your financial well-being, do NOT get sucked into the soul-crushing vortex that is Fiverr.
While I consistently delivered exceptional work, I was surrounded by a sea of talentless hacks churning out subpar garbage. This platform is a cesspool of mediocrity, a haven for the unskilled and unscrupulous.
Fiverr's corporate puppet masters, drunk on power and greed, have rigged the game against sellers. The ever-shifting rules are a Kafkaesque nightmare, designed to bleed freelancers dry and line Fiverr's pockets.
Promotions are a cruel joke, a mirage that promises riches but delivers only financial ruin. Countless times, Fiverr has robbed me blind, and I've heard the same harrowing tales from countless other sellers.
This platform is a den of thieves, a parasitic leech sucking the lifeblood out of hardworking freelancers worldwide.
Don't be fooled by Fiverr's shiny facade. It's a toxic wasteland that will leave you broke, broken, and questioning your life choices.
Save yourself the agony and steer clear of this abomination. Your future self will thank you.

95% of the messages are scams
95% of the messages are scams
Using Fiverr as a seller you are going to be spammed by phishing messages that try to scam you with no option to report them. If the web was free I could understand this, but considering the huge commissions we pay as sellers is just feels like the platform has forgotten of the sellers.

Waste of time
Like all other freelance sites, this one is absolutely filled to the brim with scammers. You'll get a lot of messages, but literally every single one is from a scammer. The one good thing is that Fiverr automatically deletes messages from these scammers, and some atleast are banned, but what does it really matter, they just make new accounts and keep sending the same messages.

Fiverr Ignores Sellers and Blocks Quality Professionals, Leaving Low-Quality Work on Their Platform
Fiverr blocked me and all my gigs, then deleted my account. My clients were left without any way to contact me.
Here’s the background: I create websites on platforms like Readymag, Weblium, and Webflow. You all know that these platforms require email registration. To work on these websites, I had to send my email to clients in open, paid gigs on the Fiverr platform so that I could receive access to the sites. Just think about it! The gig was already paid for, I was working through the platform, but I got banned for supposedly taking clients off the platform. This is absurd.
No one from Fiverr informed me about the ban. For almost a month, I had no idea what happened. For another month, support sent me only copied text responses. No one, I repeat, no one wanted to address my issue. I repeatedly contacted support and sent screenshots showing that I was receiving access to the Readymag platforms to work. I honestly worked on Fiverr, solely through the platform.
No investigation was conducted; they simply blocked me and did so only after I started contacting support. They just deleted my account. My Fiverr name was olades.
I absolutely do not recommend Fiverr because if you encounter any problems, they will just kick you out and ignore your evidence. No one will look into it. It is very cynical and low. I apologize to all my clients who can no longer find or contact me due to this platform!
