I was hoping to get to #1, and make Upwork regret their decision, but a social experiment... haven't though about that.

Hi, OP here. I have to say that I'm a human (as far as I know) my account is new, because I didn't have anything to share before, and now I have a great motivation to be complaining somewhere.

I'm just an unemployed freelancer making complains in HN.

Thank you for sharing your experience. I would probably, at least, try to send a letter by email and see how things go from there
