So here's the thing that has really caught me off guard.....when I make a delivery I get the following message; Note it says CLEARLY that they have until Dec 12 at 9:47 UNLESS they request a revision right? So surely that should say they have 'until Dec 12 at 9:47 UNLESS they request a revision OR until they take it upon themselves to arbitrarily extend this period without cause, reason or explanation to anyone'?? Honestly - this is by far the worst feature that I have seen added, not just here on Fiverr, but to any platform......it's utterly unfair and the buyer is completely unaccountable for their actions - I am so very, very disappointed....this is supposed to be a partnership....we are working for Fiverr but it feels as though there is absolutely no consideration give to us with every 'new feature' that's added.....

I have been here on Fiverr for nearly three years......over $150k in earnings and more than 2,000 deliveries......so I am NOT a 'newbie' - I rarely write on this forum but I am so disappointed by this feature that I just had to. As we are all aware - Fiverr is already HEAVILY weighted to the buyer....but this is supposed to be a partnership......as a full time Fiverr Freelancer I consider myself as part of the team.....so when the team actively works against my interests.....that hurts. This feature is clearly open to abuse, it provides additional equity to buyers at no cost and furthermore it removes value from sellers along with adding huge disruption to scheduling and time management. What am I going to do about it? Well.....everything that is in my power......I already have more jobs in my queue than enough on any given day so the action I will take is to rate at 1* any client who uses this feature without first discussing it with me and block them from placing further orders with me regardless of whether they are an existing client or not - I would encourage all others to do the same until this abusive feature is removed.

Good question - so.....I got a message in my inbox that went along the lines of 'Hey Top Seller....now you can...' - and there was a clickable link to set it up......I haven't looked to see if the set up is visible elsewhere on my gig without the link....now that it is 'set up' I can edit it like I would normally edit a gig.... Also - I don't know if it is only for certain categories.......but it might be? (You could ask CS)

Hi! Glad to hear that there is someone else out there who has been given this feature! I remain hopeful that they are prepping us for TRS......but like you say.....only time will tell!

I honestly thing that it's a real bonus to have on a gig......I understand that it's good to have it as a differentiation for TRS and PRO......but it is surely a big boost to those of us in the lower ranks.......I did wonder if it was a harbinger of an upgrade to TRS at my next eval on the 15th.....I have been 'qualified' for over a year..... Still interested to hear if it has been given to any other Level 2's!

Got a message from Fiverr yesterday saying that I now had Project Portfolio on my gig (not 'live portfolio') - the one where I can upload past work etc - the one that is reserved for TRS and Pro. So - I am wondering why I got this? (not complaining!) and also wondering if any other Level 2's have had the same thing? (Full Disclosure - I haven't used this forum before and I also posted a close variation of this post in the 'questions' section - but this General one seems more lively....I scanned the guidelines....don't think I broke any rules by posting in both....if I did someone tell me and I will remove one or both of the posts!) Cheers!
