psychicbunny Posted January 23, 2017 Share Posted January 23, 2017 Rarely happens to me. People are too nervous about their future so I’m sure they would rather go overboard by giving me more detail than I actually need from them to perform their reading.I’ll have people give me things that I DON’T need such as pictures, last names, text message screenshots, etc. it is ridiculous. I just look at their first name, question, and do their reading. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest designit_247 Posted January 23, 2017 Share Posted January 23, 2017 @misscrystal Absolutely. Most of the time it’s $5. Also there are cases that fake buyers do the same to get the refund after work is delivered.@designit_247 Your point is exactly correct just for one order. But what if you receive several orders which customers don’t response? Are you going to cancel all the orders? I have noticed there are sellers have less rating for their gigs but still they are getting orders continuously. Challenge is to safeguard your gig without getting a bad review and also WITHOUT cancelling the order.@emeraldawnn Buyers order one thing, after you deliver it, they request something else. So they can get done 2 work for the same cost. Did you explain the situation & did he reply?You don’t have to cancel all, you just have to do justice to some, you know what I meant.

arty182925 Posted January 23, 2017 Share Posted January 23, 2017 @arty182925 what happened buddy? Did he reply?@emeraldawnn Yes let’s wait and see. By the way you are Susan right? You know what, 2 years back buyer contacted me asking me to do a article re-writing job. She was very nice but I couldn’t help her as that was not a service that I provide. Those days she was new to fiverr so I went ahead and searched for Professional Writers. Guess who I found, Yes It was you. So I gave you profile link to her and later she contacted me and said you did an awesome job. 🙂He replied with why I didn’t made modification over weekend. Even I asked him at least 5 questions that he never replied on. Oh yeah, he is replying once in 2 or 3 daysNow I have another idiot.I did book formatting, everything was good. Buyer changed his mind and wanted changes. I did that too. Buyer changed his mind again I did that too. Now he is saying “You are not following my instructions. Please issue me a refund and I will use someone else.” Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
interpretivist Posted January 23, 2017 Share Posted January 23, 2017 no gig cancellation increases when buyer initiates it. to avoid it, you have to initiate yourself.As long as the cancellation is mutual (both sides agree to it), it doesn’t matter who initiated it.really i didnot know that… Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But I’ll check my Inbox messages when I’m free and will send you her name okay. 🙂If you can’t find it, it’s no big deal. 🙂 I am just glad I could help. I also do that myself.

emeraldawnn Posted January 24, 2017 Share Posted January 24, 2017 Wow… I was shocked today… The client I truly believed would give me a 1-star review gave me a 5-star review, although he didn’t say anything… just 5 stars and that’s it.

I’m happy for you. He’d have realized his fault. 👍@arty182925 Oh that’s terrible. I know they place the order with one requirement and once it’s done they change their mind and request something entire different from the 1st requirement.

So did you give him the refund? 😯I don’t know for some reason, this whole month was hectic & buyers were so arrogant & aggressive.

I have some buyers they don’t reply if they satisfy with the product/service we provide. After I sent them a message asking “Are you happy with the final output?” then only they reply yes. 🙂 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

angelwish Posted February 8, 2017 Author Share Posted February 8, 2017 I can understand but for some reason, I experienced some drastic sales drop after doing some mutual cancellations. I’m glad that there are some sellers didn’t experience the sales drop in the same way, but I know some other sellers who experienced sales drop even after mutual cancellations.

zazi_developer Posted February 9, 2017 Share Posted February 9, 2017 @angelwish i always suggest my clients and customers to download the fiverr > MOBILE APPLICATION which make our communication robust. Also mobile application notifications remind them about there order with us its the perfect way to be in touch with clients. So take this advice for upcoming clients i had this situation and i figured it this way. 😉 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sbplus Posted February 9, 2017 Share Posted February 9, 2017 I too had few cases like these. But luckily my gig does not require much communication if one provides sufficient information with the order. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
idostuff74 Posted February 9, 2017 Share Posted February 9, 2017 Yes, quite a few. But ideally (!!!), my so far bestselling gig doesn’t really require any communication.And whenever I had questions/suggestions (e.g. I see the client has a logo but didn’t include it in the order), I had fast responses.

misscrystal Posted February 9, 2017 Share Posted February 9, 2017 Lately on the $5 orders I get I request repeatedly that the buyer confirm he has read what I sent him and never get any response which tells me they are NOT READING anything at all.It’s quite frustrating because I know they will not understand when they get the delivery.The ones who spend more are more interested and read everything usually.

james_polamz_k Posted August 24, 2017 Share Posted August 24, 2017 Hi @angelwish my 3rd order was from a mysterious client. I was busy working on a 100 poem order when I received an email from Fiverr that I have received an order. I was like, What!I checked in to see the order, it was to write an article on a topic I had absolutely no idea on in 24 hours! Grrrh!After getting deafening silence from the client to my messages, I reluctantly paused my current order to work on the order. I spent the night brainstorming Google.Did I mention I saw the order late? It was a busy day!Early the next morning, I wrote the article. I still had some hours before submitting. But the client was nowhere to be found.I accepted my fate that a tantalising 5⭐ review wouldn’t be mine in this order. About 48 hours later, I received a shocking 5⭐from this ghost.That incidence made me to edit my gig: I increased the day from 1 to 3, added fast express delivery. And I added that I should be contacted before an order is placed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
