kcpreechlucy Posted May 24, 2020 Share Posted May 24, 2020 A client placed order on my gig since yesterday without topics and requirements.We didn’t have prior discussion before the order was placed, and I didn’t give the client an offer as well.What could be the reason and what should I expect to happen if the requirements are not given? 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
anika09 Posted May 24, 2020 Share Posted May 24, 2020 Hi,As far as I know without fulfiling the requirements section the order will not start. You can ask the buyer. When he will see the questions he can help you out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wpexpertsabbir Posted May 24, 2020 Share Posted May 24, 2020 It’s really a bad situation,I know.Now, You should ask your buyer what you need to get started the order,when he give your requirement then you should start your work 😇 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

However, when the details are not provided in the requirements, then the order does not start unless you confirm it by selecting the option for “I’ve already got all the necessary details about the order”what should I expect to happen if the requirements are not given?You probably should contact your buyer. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
marinapomorac Posted May 24, 2020 Share Posted May 24, 2020 @kcpreechlucy Go to your GIG settings and select that when ordering requirements are mandatory not optional. This way order won’t start unless seller types something or provides you with file. For all my GIGs I set up mandatory requirements. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kcpreechlucy Posted May 24, 2020 Author Share Posted May 24, 2020 true, just ask them to fullfil the requirementsI have but yet to the client online.I just leave the order like that. Can’t make mistake of accepting it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

marinapomorac Posted May 24, 2020 Share Posted May 24, 2020 Yeah.The buyer hardly come online. Yet to come online since the order was placed onI had a buyer who placed order and for 8 hours nothing. So what I did (and this is only because I am new seller, I would never do this if I had my orders frequently) I prepared what he need but I send image of it with watermark over in order and I asked, this is my draft sample if you have any requirements and changes I will wait for your input in order to complete this order. And then I just forgot about him. If he did not respond until end of order I would just file to cancel on CS. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

(…) what should I expect to happen if the requirements are not given?What could be the next thing if the client refuse to provide requirements?If you have set the requirements to be mandatory, then the order won’t start until your buyer fulfills them.Here you have two options, either you message your buyer reminding them to attach whatever is that you need, so the clock can get started, or wait past 7 days, on which you could contact CS, politely asking them to please cancel the order, since the buyer failed to fulfill the requirements. This cancellation won’t affect your stats. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

After all the buyer is one losing until I click the button " I have everything needed".I think Fiverr should the requirements is not complete so I couldn’t continue Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And please wait for the given time span.If you ask for the order to be cancelled before the 7 days, the cancellation will count against you, and it will also do if you let it rest for too long. So just wait past those 7 days and contact CS explaining the situation. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

humanissocial Posted May 24, 2020 Share Posted May 24, 2020 I did that the day I created my gig.So it is yet to count. What could be the next thing if the client refuse to provide requirements?Just leave it. Be patient.You wouldn’t like it if Amazon got impatient with you for putting something in your shopping cart without purchasing it, would you? If they did, you’d never shop there again.People are busy and they have lives. No buyer owes it to you to fill the requirements right away. There are many explanations for why people wait and it’s important to look at things from their perspective. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
