[Buyer Can CANCEL Order for ANY REASON and get refund AFTER DELIVERY!]

I have an order I’m working on right now where I fear this very thing might happen, which is how I found your post.

I had no idea that people could cancel orders in revision. I think that’s ridiculous.

I wrote a 16,000 word piece for a difficult client and am now awaiting revision instructions, which are taking an eerily long time to arrive.

I guess the only way to avoid this would be to only offer small-sized gigs that don’t take very long to complete. You could still get scammed out of payment on the small gig, but it’s a lot better than getting scammed out of a big one.

I’m going to be changing my gigs and telling buyers that from now on they’ll be allowed to buy in 2000 word max. increments because of this. :woman_shrugging:t2:

I also ended up on this thread because I'm worried an article gig I completed will get cancelled even though I've delivered it (I've been trying to determine which format is best to send to buyers - for this one I send MS Word and PDF). My article was 1088 words (1K max - the extra 88 is free), and was $5.00. After conversion and Fiverr's commission, it's probably 2-3 quid for me. So I've reduced my word count for this basic gig to 700 words, which also seems to be the average for article packages (at the basic level). I'd recommend switching to 700 words if you can for your basic package and ask buyers you don't know to go with the basic option first as a way to get a feel for how trust-worthy they are. Good luck!
