You are expected to comply with all Upwork Terms of Service and the failure to do so can result in account holds. Account holds lead to account interruptions, and consequences could include the inability to continue working on Upwork and the loss of your hard-earned reputation. Knowing and following your obligations when using Upwork is essential for you to thrive on Upwork and earn Top Rated status. If you notice unsafe behavior, don’t hesitate to use the “Flag as inappropriate” link on project posts or profiles.
If you violate any of their terms and conditions they will suspend your account. In my case, they suspended my account for not earning enough within first 6 months of joining the site. I submitted an appeal and put down some legit points and to my surprise they reinstated my account the very next day. I wasn’t expecting this because I’ve read several horror stories about Upwork account suspension, so I wasn’t sure they’d reinstate my account.
