“Avoid doing business with these people. I felt compelled to make a $5,000 investment with the generous hope of receiving a 30% return. Unfortunately, 1 couldn't even see the cash in my wallet, much less the expected profits. Many attempts were made to contact them without success. To get assistance, I had to call Mrs Doris Ashley. I'm glad I reported them, and I got my money returned a few days later

“DO NOT USE THIS PLATFORM IT IS A SCAM. I purchased a gig on 9/24 and it was supposed to be completed in 10 days. Here we are (10/28) several weeks later and it is still not done. What is worse is the freelancer that was 'helping' me did something and now when my business is googled, multiple versions of my website some up. There is no customer service at Fiverr, they only have AI customer service. I am not sure if this is allowed but his username on Fiverr is Mike Oliver and he is from Pakistan.”
“You will create it Yourself faster.
If You want to play with scammers and kids - Fiverr is Your place.
Your order can last for a month and in the end seller will disappear - Fiverr does nothing about it. They don`t even close such account.
It`s a bad idea, go somewhere else.”
“I’ve been a loyal Fiverr user, but my recent experience has been incredibly disappointing. I hired a seller for a project, but the delivered work was full of fraudulent practices and copyright violations. As someone without programming skills, I initially couldn't verify the quality myself, but the seller was struggling with their team to get the software working. They were practically begging me to mark the order as complete, and in good faith, I did.
After a month of continued issues with the software, I had a programmer from Holland review the code, and he discovered that the seller had copied content from different applications into mine. After confronting the seller, they agreed to cancel the orders (#FO83193B8C708 and #FO61E7330EA84), but despite this mutual agreement and solid evidence of fraud, Fiverr refuses to issue a refund.
Fiverr's position is that, because the orders were completed more than 14 days ago, I’m not eligible for a refund. However, this isn’t just a case of delayed dissatisfaction – the work was clearly fraudulent from the start, and I’ve provided Fiverr with extensive evidence, including a document detailing the issues and screenshots of the seller admitting fault and agreeing to the cancellation.
To make matters worse, the seller has refused to return the money directly, leaving me with no choice but to rely on Fiverr’s mediation. Unfortunately, Fiverr’s support has been unhelpful, sticking to their policies rather than addressing the fact that I was scammed.
Fiverr’s marketplace should be a safe place for buyers, but this experience has left me feeling frustrated and unsupported. I trusted Fiverr to help resolve fraudulent activity, but their lack of action has me considering legal steps and filing complaints with consumer protection agencies.
This experience has completely shattered my trust in Fiverr. If you’re considering using Fiverr, be cautious, especially when it comes to their refund policies and handling of seller misconduct. I sincerely hope Fiverr takes action to protect buyers in the future, and I still hope I can recover some of the money I’ve lost.”
“Insane religious freak owners who allow sellers to harass you about their cult, and if you ask them to stop they ban you and steal your $. Fiverr belongs closed & the owners in jail. Complete nutcases.”
“Absolute trash for buyers. System is full of scammers and Fiverr staff supports them over the paying customers. So even when you prove the contractor lied and couldn’t fulfill the job, the contractor and Fiverr keep the money and say there’s not enough evidence.”
“Fiverr offers plenty of services for sure, however I find their system rigid to adjust to seller’s needs at times from my experiences, which I find disappointingly unfair at times. They also take a 10% commission from both buyers and sellers purely for providing their website. If you’re buying, you’re fine, but if you’re selling, be aware their system can be annoyingly frustrating at times”
“Biggest scam I have ever seen. Fees are applied everywhere you turn. Be aware, you only going to get a tiny proportion of the actual amount, by the time you withdraw, plus you will have to wait at least "10 years" to be able to withdraw your money. Customer service don't exist at Fiverr, its like their run by 2 rats in a bedroom. Stay away from these scammers, there are plenty better then them, use Guru, Toptal, PeoplePerHour, Freelancer, Truelancer, Outsourcely.”
“I needed a flyer made more appealing and found someone who did a good job quickly. After completing and tipping (fiverr takes a fee of both project and tips) I started to receive cold solicitations for work. I deleted my account, but they still come and customer service won’t do jack about it. Don’t use the platform if you like having privacy and not using your time to sift through these solicitations.”
“Unfortunately, fiverr deleted my negative review on TrustPilot so I am sharing it here:
I had quite an unfortunate experience with Fiverr's invoicing system. When preparing my tax documents for the year 2023, I noticed that Fiverr had not issued any of my invoices. Upon reaching out to them, I was informed that these invoices were deleted and are no longer available.
This was a shocking revelation, as it directly contradicts the legal requirements concerning financial documentation. I promptly addressed their non-compliance, only to be met with silence. My subsequent emails have gone unanswered, leaving me in a precarious situation with the tax office.
Now, I am in the process of gathering all email communication to substantiate my expenses, a task that is both frustrating and time-consuming. This incident has made it clear that Fiverr's services may not be reliable for business purposes, particularly for those who place importance on maintaining accurate financial records.
To anyone considering using Fiverr for their business needs, please be forewarned - you may face difficulties in securing your invoices. This lack of support and disregard for legal protocols is not only disappointing but also detrimental to the seamless operation of any business.”

“One of Fiverr freelancer infringe my copyright on audible, I presume he does not know now how to remove. Fiverr not helping.
So beware if you have written a book and a freelancer stole your copyright you will have no voice and forced to hire a solicitor.”
“One of the worst platform that you can work with either as a Buyer or as a Seller. And one of the worst Businesses in general !
As as Seller , Firstly they will let you run your services as long as you need , charging the most famous highest rate ever of 20% and another from the Buyer , then they would anytime suspend your gigs and kick you out specially when their algorithm makes your gigs shine on the top of a Buyer choices "unless" you start to "spend" what you earned on their platform , promoting your gigs or taking a training or whatsoever! The simplest way of doing it is picking up the easiest reason "Not complying with our Community Standard / Integrity / Policy " !! A policy that I doubt any of their staff read or understood ! Or whatever comes on their way !! They tend to find all the ways to diminish your business and they would accept anything from anyone of their Buyers that helps on that as long as it is against you!
P.S: Their decisions cannot be "undone" and not "discussable" :)
As a Buyer , nothing special on the platform except a huge enormous security system that hinders the innovation and the proper discussions with Sellers !! On other similar platform , you can Video call the Seller through any meeting app ! In fiverr , the maximum would be to find a data entry specialist ! They are trying to expand .. true , but with their mentality in how business and innovation being managed, how would you expect to have a Business Plan through a seller from USA , who is not vetted and probably staying in Bangladesh and not the cute lady that you see her profile photo ! Only cause the platform read the IP address , easy to bluff !”
“Very poor service by Fiverr's support team.
I am a second tier seller on Fiverr and in six months my sales exceeded $16,278.
But my order number on #FO71AF87781C5 got canceled after buyer accepted my delivery.
I complained about this to Fiverr support but after 15 days I still got nothing, because of this the order fulfillment ratio decreased and I became a new seller.
And the main thing is debt fever has added $668.25 to my account and they are deducting this money from my other orders.
I have never seen such poor service anywhere, it is very bad and sad too.”
“LEGAL COMPLAINT with the OFFICIAL AUTHORITIES
Recently I had a this problem with the scammers that run Fiverr DOT com and this is how I dealt with it: I filed a LEGAL COMPLAINT with the OFFICIAL AUTHORITIES in their country to put this illicit company out of business. By deleting user accounts they, in fact, prevent users from accessing their data, which is illegal in their country. Also, I have enough HARD-COPY documented material proof and evidence to bury these xewish scammers together with their YuckWee gods.
Yes, they do publish positive reviews about their own business and they do send THOUSANDS of spambombs a day.”
“It is a very excellent site in providing miniature services and helps the customer to communicate with the seller while ensuring the rights of both parties I advise you to try”
