It's in Fiverr's best interest to keep the good sellers and get rid of the bad ones. If a single great seller disappears because of this, that seller is most likely gone forever. Repeat that too many times, and the entire process will be counter productive. The confirmation from @frank_d about the flagging being a manual process (investigation) gives me (nearly) complete confidence in what Fiverr is doing. This is what we've been asking for, for a long time. Edited August 6, 2022 by smashradio 16 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It makes sense, the below is their Q2 shareholder report. It's a great read. Usually I find these quite dry but I really enjoyed it. Think you will too @smashradio if you haven't seen it already. https://s23.q4cdn.com/749308338/files/doc_financials/2022/q2/v1/_Q2_2022-Fiverr-Shareholder-Letter-08.03.2022-FINAL-APPROVAL-LOCKED-RE-UPLOAD-[- Highly-Confidential-].pdf The short version is that everything is moving upwards... average spend per buyer and quality expectations.... 2. Go upmarket In the twelve months ended June 30, 2022, spend per buyer on our platform increased 14% y/y to $259. We see continued expansion in wallet share across our buyer base, evidenced by spend per buyer growth across all cohorts. We are also seeing increasing adoption from business buyers with significantly larger wallet size. Buyers who spend over $10K annually grew over 60% compared to last year. The continued strong growth of spend per buyer underlines the success in our upmarket initiatives, including: investments in Fiverr Business, improvements of our offering catalog, enhancements to the overall quality of the marketplace experience, the expansion of the product capability to enable larger projects, and targeting larger customers in our marketing. Subscriptions, a product we launched over a year ago, allow our buyers to make recurring purchases from a seller over a longer period of time. We have seen enthusiastic adoption among our buyers and sellers, especially in digital marketing categories that naturally require a longer term engagement in order to drive business results for buyers. The majority of those subscription contracts reach full completion and this drives a meaningful uplift in retention and engagement size for those categories.

zeus777 Posted August 7, 2022 Share Posted August 7, 2022 Interesting. I might try reporting that fake seller again then. ( the one I've been trying to report for the past every 3 months or so....for 2 years? More?) Currently a level 2 seller with overall very good reviews, but sadly the buyers don't know they are receiving garbage quality translations. Let's see what happens. 19 4 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
arif_afridi Posted August 9, 2022 Share Posted August 9, 2022 Hello, I'm level 2 seller and few days before my account restricted with reason low quality delivery but Fiverr didn't hear me and didn't take my view on this. I provided to client for what we agreed but i don't know why fiverr not listening freelancer and giving priority to buyers? This is not good for Freelancers community . Fiverr must know freelancers point of view too before restricting account and ask for evidence . 22 1 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cre8iveartwork Posted August 10, 2022 Share Posted August 10, 2022 Low quality deliveries might also be related to sellers having inconsistencies between what is showcased in the gig vs what is actually delivered to buyers 14 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

anna_dxnr Posted August 13, 2022 Share Posted August 13, 2022 I don't know issue and my account is also under review! I am level 2 seller with 1992 reviews and 4.9 rating but I got a message from fiver about low quality delivery! Now I am waiting response from fiver!

However, is there a probability I will get my account back? did you get any response from fiver customer support? I have same but did not get any response yet! Did any of the fiver user get back their restricted account? 15 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The above is from the Terms of Service at the bottom of the Fiverr main page. Restricted The account is partially disabled. The customer, either buyer or seller, can access the account, withdraw funds, complete ongoing orders, and review their order history. They cannot place or receive new orders, nor can they communicate with other customers through inbox messages. seller's Gigs will not show on the marketplace, and buyers will not be able to place new orders. Once an account is temporarily disabled, the customer needs to wait for the trial period (which can take upwards of 90 days) to be completed—to know if the account will be restored or permanently disabled. Customer Support can neither influence the result of this review nor can they update the customer on the review's end date. You will have to wait for the outcome of the review. 17 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Considering you basically traced what they provided, I'm not surprised. They were asking you to improve what they had, not copy it. Plus, the font you used wasn't even close to what they included.

No. You traced the idea. If you had used the idea, it would at least be symmetrical. 16 hours ago, anna_dxnr said: I designed new ideas from scratch as well! Care to share any of those? You stated earlier that: 20 hours ago, anna_dxnr said: client draw idea on rough paper I draw exactly same in professional feelings after getting initial idea he said upscale this idea and I redesign again after that client left negative feedback and cancel order as well As your gig is no longer visible, we can't check to see exactly what you promised in your contract. I would be willing to guess, however, that you claimed you were a professional, and/or expert. The fact that what you delivered as complete, didn't even have the symmetry corrected, proves you don't understand basic design principles. And before you say that what was delivered was a draft or mockup, reread the Terms of Service section on 'incomplete deliveries'. (Also the section on what gigs can/will be removed.) 16 hours ago, anna_dxnr said: if client don't like and report to fiver in this case fiver can suspend my account?

anna_dxnr Posted August 18, 2022 Share Posted August 18, 2022 If any of seller draw same sketch fiver will disable that account! I don't think it makes sense! I think fiver need to gave me a chance or gave me warning at least I have 1993 positive reviews and if one of client is not happy and fiver will suspend my account! Its really shocking! 14 1 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gongor32 Posted August 19, 2022 Share Posted August 19, 2022 It seems to be too excessive to disable account for one report. I hope fiverr manually checks these reports. 🤷♂️ Are we one "Karen" client away from being banned? 🤔 14 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Completely agree, but I have a doubt it's based on just one report. I expect 'one report' is just the straw that breaks the camels back, and it follows perhaps a theme of less than great private reviews, and perhaps CS/T&S also then review a number prior orders and make their decision. 15 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Like how do you work for over a year successfully and get restricted for low-quality delivery? It doesn't make sense. If one had been delivering low-quality jobs for a year, it would have been evident in the ratings. It's excessive and unfair, really. 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Does that mean that the private feedbacks mean more than the public ones? Cos I've never gotten any complaint or cancellation due to unsatisfactory delivery. Now I get some might prefer not to complain to me and stay anon but none of them want to cancel and get a refund? Not even one? Naturally, if a buyer is not satisfied with a service, they cancel and ask for refund. 8 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
