Did you have 2 accounts as well?

The account you’re posting from is live, and you’ve got 2 gigs up with reviews on as well.

There may be more to this than you’re letting on…?

Here’s the ToS for your perusal:

Here’s the ToS for your perusal:

I’m afraid that your help won’t be appreciated:

I know It is against Fiverr’s terms of service But Now I need solution not terms and conditions.

you knew what you were doing. Don’t forget to close the door on the way out.

I think many here gave a good advice, but I see others, with unnecessary sarcasm, for example, there was no need for this comment

This person might have done what they did out of ignorance of rules or intentionally, and we do not know which is which. I have been asked my address, and I never give it out simply because for my own protection, I do not see why would a client want my address when they can contact me on Fiverr, but some of us might naively give away their contacts just because a client asked for it, thinking that will build trust between them and the client. Although rules are clear and straightforward, I see some sellers from certain countries do have several accounts, and actually, think it is ok and genuinely think they are not doing anything wrong. It is an annoying thing but it a fact. I hope the poster if he or she made an honest mistake, she or he will get it back their account, and if she or he did it thinking they can outsmart the system and rules mean nothing, then this could be a good lesson for them that rules are made to protect all parties and one must respect them.

Ignorance is no defence in the eyes of the law, or indeed Fiverr’s ToS.

The OP admitted they gave out contact information, and it seems as if they have 2 accounts.

Defending those who break the rules, and don’t seem to care about it, is a bit of a slap in the face for the rest of us who do stick to the rules.

There was no unnecessary sarcasm, just genuine feelings from forum users who don’t like to see the rules being broken.

“I know It is against Fiverr’s terms of service But Now I need solution not terms and conditions”

Actually, sarcasm is helpful, as a way of showing not just the OP, but everyone else reading this topic, that those who break the rules (especially if they do it knowingly) are not welcome here.

I read, but I guess we look at it from different angles, I interpreted his/her words as “ok now I know, what is the solution” but you right too, it might as well mean they knew but choose to ignore it and got caught.

Perhaps, but in some cultures, people are sensitive and they get hurt so badly with words, I see no fun in hurting someone for any reason. But yeah, breaking rules must have consequences according to the level of violation and its seriousness. But I see no pleasure in hurting people with words even when it seems they might deserve it in some occasions.

I understand that whatever happened to him could be his fault but I also agree that we should be very careful about our words. Some people can really get hurt and be depressed. I am one of those who stick to the rules but we are all human and commit mistakes. It just so happened that his mistake was very costly. Again, we can all have different opinion about what had happened but let us not judge people whose opinion are not the same with ours.

let us not judge people whose opinion are not the same as ours.

It’s not up to us to judge anybody - the Fiverr ToS can’t be any clearer - one account, and don’t give out your email address.

It’s nothing to do with cultural differences, fear of hurting anybody’s feelings or anything else like that.

There are rules - choose to stick to them, or leave the site, either by choice or because you get kicked off.

As you say so Sir 🙂

Hi there,

I recently created a gig for product photography.
As I know that it is against the TOS of Fiverr to share my address, I talked to the customer support before starting the gig. They told me it’s correct that it is against the TOS, but sometimes it needs to be shared to complete the gig.
So they told me to write every time in the messages WHY I’m sharing my address and WHY it is important to share it to complete the gig.

Matthias
