To me, milestone orders are not properly explained. I set an order with four milestones. I delivered the first one, and started work on the second one. The buyer gets 8 days to approve the first milestone. The first milestone got auto-approved after 8 days, and Fiverr closed the complete order including the other 3 milestones. End result is, 8 days of work not paid for.
- Why does Fiverr not open the second milestone, after the first one is approved? So, I can complete the order to the client, as promised and within the time frame
- Is the client fully aware that now this delay is caused in his order?
- To complete the order I now have to prompt the client for additional payments, as the order has been closed.
There should be more clarity on how these milestones work. Until then I won't use this option again.
