Exceptional Support from Joan

I would like to give my highest rating to Joan F. for the exceptional support and assistance I received.

As a completely new user on Freelancer, I accidentally created a contest instead of looking for projects to participate in. This resulted in an unexpected €40 charge, and I was initially very confused and worried about what I had done.

Joan F. handled my situation with incredible professionalism, patience, understanding, and kindness. He took the time to understand what had happened, reviewed my case carefully, and went above and beyond to help me resolve the issue. Thanks to his assistance, the contest was cancelled and the €40 refund was processed.

What impressed me the most was the immediate response and the genuinely helpful attitude throughout the entire process. I never felt judged for my mistake as a new user. Instead, Joan made me feel that my problem was taken seriously and that someone was actually there to help me.

I am extremely grateful for his support and would gladly give Joan F. a 5-star rating. This was an excellent customer support experience, and Joan is a great example of how customer service should be.

Thank you, Joan, for your patience, professionalism, and excellent assistance. You made what initially felt like a very stressful situation incredibly easy to resolve.

Great service for Verified

I've been using Freelancer.com for many years. The staff is fantastic. ANAIAH just helped me with getting my Verified badge, and it was very easy to obtain. Our conversation was very clear, understandable, and quick. Thank you, ANAIAH.

I had a great experience working with Jonny

I had a great experience working with Jonny. He was extremely helpful and professional throughout the process of becoming a Preferred Freelancer. He explained everything clearly, guided me through each step, and was always patient and responsive whenever I had questions.

I really appreciate the time and effort Jonny put into helping me complete the process. His support made everything much easier and smoother. Freelancer is lucky to have someone like him on the team. Highly recommended!

Lance took the time to understand and resolve my issue

I had an issue with an automatic membership renewal and initially had some difficulty getting my request resolved.

However, Lance from Freelancer Support took the time to actually understand what happened, carefully reviewed the situation, and escalated my concern to his supervisor instead of simply repeating the previous response.

Lance understood that I had reported the accidental renewal immediately and that I had been asked by Support to wait. He continued working with his supervisor until they offered a fair solution and a one-time exception to resolve the membership and refund issue.

I have been using Freelancer for more than 10 years, and I really appreciate receiving this level of support. Lance listened, understood the actual problem, and worked to find a solution.

Thank you, Lance, and thank you to the supervisor for handling the situation fairly.

Lance B. was super quick, professional, and helpful in assisting me with the refund of my deposit. He made sure my other concerns were taken care of while he reviewed my request and kept me updated from time to time while he was reviewing. Excellent work!

Helpful, but Slow Response

While the support has helped me in recovering my account, I'd requested it at night and finally got a response after it's morning in my time zone.

I'd like for assigning agents to be faster than it was yesterday next time, if I ever need any more customer help
