Ouch! I'm sorry you had to experience this. There could be any number of reasons why the seller is now gone, but rest assured, Fiverr will take care of this for you. I've seen this happen before. Reach out to support by raising a ticket here and let them know about the situation. Since the seller is gone, the money should be refunded, and you'll be able to order from someone else.

Forum rule number 4: Cite your sources when posting information taken from the Fiverr site or other places. This includes AI-generated content.

To be fair, we didn't get that info before. Nothing has changed in terms of transparency, except Fiverr's eagerness to tell us how transparent they are.

If you're having issues with ID verification, I suggest reaching out to support for help.

Absolutely, it can. You need to hold the rights to use all the content in your gig, including images, videos, and music. If you don’t own the rights, you can’t use it. That doesn’t mean you can’t use music from other artists, but you do need the proper rights to do so. For example, the music in my gig videos is either purchased/licensed or used in productions where I have the appropriate permissions. You can, unless those elements were part of the reason your gig was denied initially. If they were copied from someone else, then the answer would be no.

In the main menu, go to My business > Gigs. On the gig page, click on Paused. On the right hand side of the list of paused gigs, click on the arrow next to the gig you want to reactivate. Click on Activate.

It sounds like you've been scammed by a website other than Fiverr. Fiverr does not work with Revolut, nor do they offer a chat for support (only tickets) and they don't use a QR code to verify as far as I know. They certainly don't ask for your credit card info. This sounds like a clear-cut phishing scam designed to make you believe it is Fiverr, when in fact, it's not.

Si tienes problemas para verificar tu número de teléfono, deberías abrir un ticket con el soporte técnico. Lamentablemente, aquí en el foro no podemos hacer mucho, ya que somos vendedores y compradores como tú. If you're having trouble verifying your phone number, you should open a ticket with support. Unfortunately, we can't do much here on the forum, as we are sellers and buyers like you.

I don’t think doubling your rate is bold; I think it’s just smart business. In fact, more than doubling it would make sense, in my opinion. If you get 10 orders at $10 each and spend 6 hours writing, or one order at $100 and spend the same six hours on that single article, which one will turn out better? And you'll still get the same amount of money. 😁

No, I'm not. Just check out the platform. It's flooded with sellers who have no skills, no clue what they're doing, and think they look professional because they use GPT for everything. Hate to burst their bubble, but that’s not how it works. And do you really think they'll improve their English by having everything translated into GPT nonsense? Every industry has been transformed by tech solutions that reduce manual labor. But we’ve kept our brains sharp throughout all of it. Believing you can leave your brain in bed when you head to work because of GPT is just fooling yourself. Fine-tune? Do you have any idea how obvious it is to native/fluent English speakers? Perhaps if they used it to learn English, instead of faking it. I just want to add to this: I watched a Fiverr webinar yesterday where a "writer" was telling people to use GPT instead of writing themselves, and then sell that content to Fiverr buyers. And this was a webinar hosted by Fiverr. If that's not fakery, I don't know what is.

Maybe if I rephrase it... The approach to supporting economically disadvantaged and underrepresented communities should emphasize sustainable empowerment rather than short-term aid, by focusing on providing education and skill development to foster self-sufficiency and enable long-term success, thereby strengthening entire communities.

GPT said so, so it must be true. I eat from my wooden cutting board. TikTok told me people on the carnivore diet has to eat from it, so I do. No plastics.

It's not politically correct enough.

@yassine_no Let me ask you what you think of this particular example: A 19-year-old guy from Bangladesh dreams of starting his own business. He doesn't have any marketable skills, but he knows how to use ChatGPT, so he sets up a gig, using GPT to write the description, bio, gig image, and FAQ for him. His English is pretty basic, but with GPT, he doesn't feel the need to improve it. After a couple of years, he's on the Fiverr forum, wondering why he isn't making any sales. ChatGPT suggested he sell Amazon product descriptions, just like the 90,000 other Bangladeshians do, so that's what he did. He's only got three reviews, no real success, speaks minimal English, and relies on GPT for everything. What’s the moral here? He didn’t learn. How did you learn? How did any of us? Not with GPT. We taught ourselves because we had to. Just like our grandparents knew how to use a washboard, we learned what we needed to because we had no choice. If you think you don't need to keep learning, you’ll not only stop growing—you'll end up like that 19-year-old, sitting around in two years, wondering why you're not successful yet. I really don’t think we’re helping the poor, weak, and underprivileged by giving them a crutch and telling them, "Here you go, use this, and you never have to think for yourself again." And I'm using Bangladesh purely as an example here, because I know several highly successful people from Bangladesh who did this the hard way and won. The GPT fakers club didn't.

And I'm sure we'll classify the stuff women use today as poison in another 31 years. It's less than 15 years since we banned asbestos in the EU, according to ChatGPT.

I'm sure Emma (that's your name, right?) can explain this better than I can, but here's my take on why I think you're wrong. When people who lack real skills pretend to have them, it's the blind leading the blind. You suggest we should be more understanding and gentle, but there used to be a general agreement not to let dishonesty, begging, and incompetence win. Many people here come from humble families – in fact, I know several of them who now own their own businesses without resorting to deception or relying on tools like GPT. Using AI asa crutch because you're talentless (I'm not saying you are) makes people lazy instead of encouraging them to think for themselves and carve out their own success. We're just playing a game of monkey see, monkey do.

Good lord. I'm too conservative for this conversation.

Yes, I'm familiar with pyroclastic flows, those are scary as hell. I remember when we had the eruption here. Given that I own a newspaper in the islands, we had to send people over there to report on what was going on. It was a much less explosive eruption than the one in Indonesia, but still impressive. ^ Ash covered large parts of the island. Our journalist, Ole Lie: Reporting on it, this was the only time I cried in 2021: Joselyn lost her unborn baby, then her house, and had to live in a container for 2 years while the local government dragged their feet. That was difficult to digest.

I'm sure you have your reasons, but for me, it was fear. I was worried about losing business. However, that didn’t happen when I doubled my rates the first time, or the second time. Consistency is great, but charging too little attracts people who think they can push you around. With AI, there’s even more reason to bump up your rates. The $10 price point is probably what customers who are also thinking about using AI for low-quality output are looking for, so you’re competing against AI, not professional writers. Give yourself some credit and raise those rates. I think you won't regret it. But that's just my experience. ^ this. Also: with 10 bucks a pop it's too easy to order. I can just place an order and leave you to it and all I'm risking is the price of a venti with a double pump of vanilla. I hardly ever have orders without the buyer contacting me first. It really helps.

Hilarious. 😅 The only topic I refuse to write about is makeup. I get so many requests for it, and while I'm sure I could pretend to understand why, but I won't.

I've seen GPT make mistakes worse than that. I'm not sure why people think these models can't make mistakes like that, but it happens.

I'm more worried about pyroclastic clouds if this keeps up. According to a geologist friend of mine, there have been some harmonic tremors after the initial eruption. That’s apparently bad news, but don’t ask me why because I have no idea. Apparently, lots of people are on the shore of the neighboring island taking pictures, and if a powerful pyroclastic flow comes along, they’ll be slammed with both a tsunami and burning ash. I'm only nerding this because we had an eruption on La Palma in 2021, and it was raining ash when my son was born.

Yeah, Totally agree. And I actually became a better writer when I did the same, because now I have more time to focus on each project.

I found it by filtering for most recent. But it doesn't show up with the default "Relevant" filter. So most buyers won't see it.
