Client wants demo before order

[sarinaesl]

Hello, I'm a newbie that offers English tutoring gigs. I got a message from a potential client asking for a demo/trial class before placing an order. Based on what I've read so far persons can only video call after the order is made and not outside of Fiverr?  Any help clarifying is appreciated. Thanks.

Hi, and thanks for your question. I would not pay for a gig before it is ready again. A seller just asked me to pay her 20$ to have her refund me for a work she never delivered. Besides the frustration of not getting something done that was important to me, fiverr just automatically accept her order while i looked away for about 24 hours. There are lots of people pretending to offer work just to get the hands on some cash, I’m sorry for this poor girl somewhere in a poor country, but i did not agree on charity. I totally support payment at the very end!

Best Regards

wow! i'm so sorry that happened to you. That's one negative with online, the dishonest/unethical people.
