Ages ago, in my first 3-4 months

Sometimes someone truly deranged pops up to take out their inner demons on me-- we are easy targets for these pathetic souls.

I just wanted to add that it’s extremely rare.

Well, I can tell you this about my worst experience:

• it was not my first negative review (actually, back then it was a “Thumbs down” 👎 )

• it was also not my first chargeback experience

• it was not even the first (and only) time I was suspended for “spamming” (long story short, I contacted previous buyers to offer them a new service based on what they purchased, and some of them had reported me - you can’t blame me, I was young and stupid :crazy_face: )

• nor was it the first buyer who had cursed my family and threatened me in every message

---

Nope.

It was my first (and only) time when my account got hacked and stolen $200 of my really hard earned money, in a time when there were no extras or packages and thus you couldn’t have priced your gigs more than $5. So it was 40 orders that were made in vain (for me).

Sorry for making it more than a sentence, Eoin 😅

Yeah, I would be very upset if that happened to me.

Fair enough, you are not young any more though.

That experience is seriously nasty - cant imagine!

I see what you did there :rofl:

Yeah, I know, I expect that from him now. “Irish Slight”…[You can say #UPYOUR to that in response Woofy]

My first non 5-star review felt like a kick in the teeth

My first non 5-star review felt like a kick in the teeth

Nowadays, it’s really common for buyers to leave 4.5-star reviews, back in the days it was a different story.

Anway, my worst experience was the first encounter of the so-called “Dear Sirs”, when I did the work and they wanted me to cancel. Three years ago, just as Woofy said, I was also, too young and I was a bit dumb. Just a kiddo and I had no clue that such thing as “Terms of Service” existed, scared of a negative review, I offered the refund, and cried for a day. I lost $5, and then it started happening once a month, with buyers from the same two countries, which I won’t name. 😦

If it wasn’t for guys like you, I would never actually read the terms of service, I would never update my gigs.

Nothing on Fiverr ever upsets me. But since I joined Fiverr I have been upset by the loss in the Delhi elections in early 2015, Bihar election in late 2015 and that’s about it, I guess. Yesterday, BSE SENSEX went down by 450 points, that shook me up as well. Fiverr has generally been fun for me, even my 5 negative reviews didn’t have any effect on me. What’s there to get upset about Fiverr - I get paid to write articles…I mean like…WOW. [Yeah, I was deeply upset and shaken to the core by the loss in the ICC Cricket Champions Trophy Final against Pakistan, couldn’t sleep for 2-3 days after that.] [There you go, typical Writer, politics, stock markets and cricket in a single post on Fiverr 😂 ]

Oh and you got flagged. And then you are wondering why you can’t get the badge “Regular”. 😛

Back to back 3msg was blocked

It had happened once to me, I have lost an order, the buyer wanted his e-mail to be written on the social media cover, I didn’t get any message from him, and after four days a cancellation request because I hadn’t helped him put the e-mail in a long time. And after few days I get a notification, open it and the message was.

“WOW, perfect design, would you please add my email address blahblahblah@blahblahblah.com and you can deliver again”

A 4.5 star review after more than 10 revisions. ( Constant script changes )

OT for @writer99025

couldn’t sleep for 2-3 days after that.

I thought you said “its just a game…” No…??

A nutty seller who sent me an attachment of a creepy photo, when I changed my mind about working with him.

[that_writer]

The client which gave me a 3.5 stars review after he sent me his text handwritten, even though I CLEARLY say in my description I don’t do handwritten texts.
It’s written in bold cursive text.
