travismurphy Posted December 7, 2014 Share Posted December 7, 2014 I purchased two gigs for promotional services, and the seller tried to instantly complete the gigs without having done any of the work. When I asked, “Uh, what are you doing? You didn’t even start the order” they just sent a cancel request instantly with no message. So that’s just one person working on a pretty poor little scam, but that’s not my concern.I was only refunded $10, and Fiverr kept my additional $1. Lol, that’s a joke. That’s my dollar. You did no services for me, and furthermore, your seller tried to steal money from me.I stopped working here often when Fiverr started accepting Bitcoin but not paying in Bitcoin (and yes, I understand why and how that is), and when I realized that 20% fee was never coming down due to an price INCREASE, but this is it-- I’m done buying and selling here.A question for anyone at Fiverr who is paying attention: Quality/quantity is always the winning formula. The internet isn’t a spam-spree anymore full of morons being click-baited and content being written primarily by English-as-a-second-language-folk (that stuff is properly segregated, at least), or any of these 50-cent scams-- it’s evolving. So why are you devolving? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It appears you’ve hired a bunch of losers, probably people with degrees in Internet Virality or Network Management. They ruined your site, so gg.

The $1 fee is retained by fiverr, as it is a payment processing fee. You now have $10 that you can use on the site to purchase additional gigs, with no processing fee.

whitehatseo10 Posted December 7, 2014 Share Posted December 7, 2014 The truth is that Fiverr is now the land of scammers, spammers and other people related to these categories. I wrote for several times in last 2 years that these people will cause less sales for Fiverr and for good sellers that are doing great jobs.I and other sellers were ignored by Fiverr staff, that are still promoting lots of TRS scammers…ps: can you believe that one month ago I reported one of the TRS with most sales on Fiverr for selling illegal services and I was just ignored by staff?
