Can I Delete My Suspended UpWork Account?

Last updated on September 30, 2022 @ 9:41 pm

UpWork is a freelancing platform that allows businesses to connect with remote workers. If you violate UpWork’s terms of service, your account may be suspended. This means that you will no longer be able to access your account or bid on projects.

So, can you delete your UpWork account if it has been suspended The short answer is no.

Once your account is suspended, it cannot be deleted. This is because UpWork needs to keep records of all the accounts that have been suspended in case they are needed for legal purposes.

PRO TIP: If you delete your Upwork account, your profile, job proposals, and other information will be permanently removed. If you think you might want to use Upwork again in the future, we recommend suspending your account instead.

If you try to delete your account, you will receive an error message that says “You cannot delete this account because it has been suspended.” Even if you contact UpWork customer support and ask them to delete your account, they will not be able to do so.

The only way to have your UpWork account deleted is to contact UpWork and request that they delete it for you. However, this is not something that they will do lightly. You will need to provide a very good reason why your account should be deleted, such as if it was created by mistake or if you no longer use UpWork.

If you simply want to stop using UpWork and do not care about having your account deleted, then you can just stop logging in and eventually your account will become inactive. Inactive accounts are automatically deleted after a certain amount of time, so this is the best way to go if you do not need your account anymore.
