evproductions Posted December 24, 2018 Posted December 24, 2018 Hi,I had a terrible experience with a buyer latelyshe placed the order on one of my gigs without contacting me then she sent the requirementsthe requirements were incomplete and took her 3-4 days to send the files (gig’s delivery time is 5 days)I sent a time expansion request for the order to provide the same quality of workBefore delivery’s date, I sent the delivery file via dropboxShe requested some adjustments and revisions, i am okay with it and re-send the file againNow she opened a dispute on the order to cancel it because of “poor work”I already gave too much time to it (4-5 days of work) and another day for revision!I have 350+ sales and never see this problem before, What should I do after I refuse the order’s cancellation?and by the way, the order is marked as late now because it took her 2 days to leave her feedbackAny help will be appreciated!! Thank you so much
landongrace Posted December 24, 2018 Posted December 24, 2018 It looks like your Fiverr account has 2 reviews? You mentioned 350 sales. My advice would be different for the 2 situations.

landongrace Posted December 25, 2018 Posted December 25, 2018 I would evaluate if you can make the customer happy. If you don’t know what that looks like, then you need to cancel. If you can make them happy, I would do it. If you do it and they are still not happy, they can leave a negative review. If you cancel it, you will have a cancellation and they won’t be able to leave a review.I have been $300.00 in on a Fiverr job and still gave a cancelled. I just believe that someone should 100% love my work or they shouldn’t pay. I also have gotten better at seeing it earlier in the process.I know there is times where we have alot of time and emotion in the project. I have to remind myself that when I refund a $10.00 order, that I refunding 15-30 minutes of time in US Dollars.When I give up $10.00, I am also saying that I would pay $10.00 to not have a negative review.Good luck with it. I know it is painful.

cheyennewriter Posted December 25, 2018 Posted December 25, 2018 Don’t accept the cancellation. You did all that work.

On top of that you can make screenshot of their requirements and highlight the bottom part in grey letters that state that they confirmed that requirements are correct.And at the same time contact fiverr support explaining your problem with a client just so they would be aware just in case customer would contact support asking to cancel the order. (but only after you deliver everything on the order page otherwise you are risking your account to be closed because it’s TOS violation to deliver your work outside of fiverr platform and they can’t protect you in this case.)

Thank you!
