ed_2019 Posted February 2, 2020 Share Posted February 2, 2020 Hi! I’m making my first order and I have some doubts that hope someone can clarify.My gig offers “48 hours delivery and 1 revision”. I made the order clearly in time and the revision very quick too but the client keeps asking for modifications and don’t know why the order appears as “in revision” and “x days late” when I did the job in time and the revisions exceed what I offered.Why does my order NOT appear as “complete” when I clearly made my job in time? I mean, it’s not my fault if a client want changes out of the first (and only) revision.Thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cyaxrex Posted February 2, 2020 Share Posted February 2, 2020 The way Fiverr works, you only have two choices. You can keep doing revisions until your client is happy, or you can cancel the order.Welcome to the gig economy. 😦 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
solow13 Posted February 2, 2020 Share Posted February 2, 2020 Talk to him or her and ask how you can help them to successfully complete the gig dont be afraid to explain that you offer 1 revision and send custom offer for additional work. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I thought that when it says 1 revision it was actually one time not that one over and over. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It’s just that I thought that 1 revision included the first time not many others until it’s finished. Plus I don’t think it’s fair for the seller that delay when you are pretty quick with revisions and the client’s answers take 1-2 days. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

However, buyers can hit the revision button as many times as they like. It is grossly unfair.The problem you are facing is also usuially the result of experienced scammers knowing how to target new sellers to get work for free. Setting prices at $5 attracts these people. Consider upping your prices to shoo them away.Also, you can redeliver exactly what has been paid for with a message saying that you are sorry but your buyer has already used their included revision. Then you just need to be prepared for a bad review. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I do care a lot but if I offer a service and a revision (and both are done on time and very carefully) isn’t fair that a 5$ order takes you about 4/5 revisions and more than a week because the client keeps asking for revisions and adding/changing the conditions.

I guess that in case of argument with a client for this reason Fiverr would give the reason to the seller (when you’re send everything you offered on time and reply the first revision), right?
