(OLD) AWESOME: Buyers' Reviews available for sellers to see

[happyspace]

fonthaunt said: all users should see all reviews for both buyers and sellers

Exactly!

Reply to @happyspace: Hahaha, thanks! Your buyers seem to be equally, if not even more, effusive! Keep up the good work!

Reply to @prockstar: Most of my buyers contact me first, especially for my writing gig. Sometimes just the contact is enough for me to tell if the buyer would be good for me to work with, but not always. If I could look them up first and see all their reviews, especially negatives, I would have an even better understanding of their business practices. For the ones with several poor reviews I could politely discourage them from ordering my gigs. That way I avoid all cancellation types and the buyer doesn’t waste their time.



I would like a reject button as well. I still think it would help to see an honest and complete view of their reviews. The way it is now is misleading. Also, when a buyer leaves a 1-2 star review most sellers give them the same. Since 1-2 stars don’t show for buyers, some of the regulars who catch on will leave sellers 2 stars when the might have chosen 3, since they know there will be no consequences for them.

Hi Everyone, we’ve updated the reviews to reflect all ratings, not just positive ones. Take a look. Thanks for all of your feedback, it’s much appreciated.

Glad to hear this. But I check don’t see anything.

Reply to @kashmiah: Unfortunately, a lot of buyers’ reviews are missing. Is it a bug?

[Alex.M]

Reviews are currently not apprearing at all

[happyspace]

Hi all



By what I see all reviews are appearing now.

Reply to @happyspace: Are you seeing them on buyer’s profiles, too?

[maddisont]

Reply to @emasonwrites: I just checked a few of my buyers pages that I have just recently worked with, and I can see no reviews. I’m pretty sure Fiverr took this awesome feature away from us as soon as they put it into practice, haha.

Reply to @happyspace: I looked at just 2 buyers that I’ve reviewed and they have nothing showing. Are you sure you saw buyer reviews?

Reply to @kashmiah: just had a look and nothing shows up for any of my buyers. Was this feature removed?

[sexygirl18]

Nothing showing up for me…

[kay2809]

false alarm.

[Alex.M]

The feature is gone 🙂 another fact that clearly indicates that sellers are not very important for Fiverr

[emasonwrites]

Reply to @maddisont: That’s what I wondered. When they first announced this, I was super excited to be able to pop over to a buyer’s page and read their reviews, but it went away in the last week or so. I thought that maybe it was just a bug for me, if happyspace was seeing them on buyer pages, but looks like they’ve taken them away again.

[maddisont]

Reply to @cre8iveartwork: I have to agree with that. Haha.



After all, what scam buyer would want to come purchase something here when they can be called out? Oh Fiverr…

For what it’s worth, you can always search for the feedback the buyer left by going to google and typing site:fiverr.com [username] thumb

Sorry guys and girls,



I just found out that when I deleted cookies and history and logged out and in again to Fiverr my buyers’ reviews are gone from the page. My humble apologies :-). I wonder why this feature was removed. It was so helpful for the short while that it existed…

[kay2809]

Reply to @tsweezey: Does not work for every buyer. Just confirmed by searching.

[kasamu]

Such a shame this feature doesn’t work 😦

[signature19]

I don’t think this feature works yet!! Because I just checked at least 5 different buyers and I cannot find even a single review on their profile (no good no bad)…
Just to confirm, suppose there is a buyer named ‘xyz’, the profile URL would be like: fiverr.com/xyz, right?
Can anyone share atleast one URL for buyer whose reviews are showing up? Please?

This thread is from January 2015. Lots of these very old threads appearing.

[congruentgraph]

I think that after packages this would be the most crucial update possible! I’m very exited to see it working.

My presumption is that presently only top rated sellers can see the reviews as I’ve looked around and can’t see nothing.

This is a great update!

[razzaka]

That’s a great news.
