jeffsantos793 Posted October 19, 2018 Share Posted October 19, 2018 We shouldn’t be objected to buyers we don’t want to work with. I never get a chance to talk to my buyers before the gig time is already running. I should be able to check the buyer out before accepting to work with them.Or at least get an option to reject a past buyer for future gigs, some buyers really like my work and come to me first but I hate working with them so much I’m leaving fiverr for a while. At least until they forget about me.Can we get an option to “accept orders automatically” so that we can turn it on or off? It would be a great addition.

I did that once and I lost my level one badge because I get few orders and the completion percentage dropped.It’s really unfair… Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
richmiles Posted October 19, 2018 Share Posted October 19, 2018 I agree. Seller should have an accept or decline button. I recently lost ranking after cancelling an order. Someone ordered a gig but didn’t cost it right no way was I going to do it for the small order amount. I reported it and job cancelled by mutual. My regular orders stopped over night.

mclabzsolutions Posted October 19, 2018 Share Posted October 19, 2018 I agree at least there should be a better cancellation system. I have few incomplete orders which I don’t want to cancel because it affect my account but those were purchased months ago but I never heard from them Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

misscrystal Posted October 19, 2018 Share Posted October 19, 2018 It would have saved me a lot of problems if we had that.The thing is that problem buyers can easily set up a new account if they are determined to place orders. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mmh4560 Posted October 19, 2018 Share Posted October 19, 2018 Maybe most of seller getting this problem. Without any message/asking or something some buyer order the gig. After order they said sorry, It’s mistake or ask to do impossible things. I already lose my level badge for this mistake. I agree with you. If there any option to stop the automatic order and stop the buyer. Really It will be good for seller. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dropship_guru Posted October 26, 2018 Share Posted October 26, 2018 Me too support this. Fiverr must bring Accept/decline button on orders. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ilovevoiceover Posted November 5, 2018 Share Posted November 5, 2018 @jeffsantos793 AGREED.Perhaps since the platform is now copying Upwork with blind reviews, they will also follow suit by copying the process of the Seller having the power to elect whether or not they will work with a Buyer.I have yet again cancelled another order where the crowned Buyer tried to bully me into providing free work by threatening to cancel the order. I will not work for free or be manipulated.As a result, my gigs have all but disappeared from search results and listings – no fault of my own. Have I notified and reported the buyers to CS? Yes. Will they do anything about my cancellation rate and detrimental ranking? No.You are right. It’s unfair and unjust.If there is a silver lining, it is that I don’t end up lending my voice and good vibes to scammers. I assume that these petty thieves run their businesses and their lives in the same unscrupulous manner. Each of us reaps what we sow.Best wishes with your business!~Lisa Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lenasemenkova Posted November 5, 2018 Share Posted November 5, 2018 I don’t think they’ll go for that. Around 10% of the orders monthly are those I finish begrudgingly and those I’d decline if I had a chance. It’s still revenue for the site and for myself, though, and I’m not sure they’re ready to lose it.That being said, I’d love it if they gave us, like, 3 “free” cancellations monthly which we could use with no repercussions. It’s not too crazy of a number and it’d really help some sellers with fewer orders out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jeffsantos793 Posted November 5, 2018 Author Share Posted November 5, 2018 This situation really sucks.I now realize that this might be the reason I haven’t gotten a gig in almost two weeks. My gigs have been getting very little traffic, and I’m getting a little desperate because I started relying on fiverr for my income.I shouldn’t have after seeing so many negative things being said about fiverr, but after getting a few gigs on my first couple of weeks I really liked it and trusted it.My mistake, gotta hustle to make up for it. Seems like this website is a waste of my time… Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jasanriocv Posted November 5, 2018 Share Posted November 5, 2018 I think we all want that, or most of us… but that is not just going to happen.

paschalisblack Posted November 5, 2018 Share Posted November 5, 2018 Tottally aggreed. I have received many times orders from buyers asking me to do something I don’t even mention I can do on my gigs. And then of course we have to cancel the order.

fastcopywriter Posted November 6, 2018 Share Posted November 6, 2018 Or we could have refunds without penalty like we did before. If no work has been delivered, why should a refund hurt our order completion rate?Right now I’m scared because my order completion rate is 90%. I’ve had 3 refunds since October, and 30 orders (last 30 days). So I get the math, 3 is 10% of 30, but it’s not right. Fiverr doesn’t want us to refund, but a buyer can keep demanding modifications or refunds until the order is marked complete. Then you reach out to CS, and they tell you to work with your buyer. What if your buyer doesn’t want to work with you? That’s why I just give up and refund, what choice do I have? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ilovevoiceover Posted December 3, 2018 Share Posted December 3, 2018 I’ve had three more “Top Buyers” trying to get free services in the last two weeks and threaten to cancel the order unless I do the work for free.Unless an “accept proposal” button is added then this malicious behavior will continue. And those who truly care about the work they create will be unjustly penalized.Why not institute this step? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
