No per protection if you don't write memo!?

[gixxermkd]

Sanction guys, i've just received one notification from UpWork that myself wont get paid for latter weeks work because the client’s payment was unsatisfactory. Depending to them if there is no memo recorded in your Work Diary you are not qualify for that hourly protection. 

Nice duty UpWork, assassin. Cans you please lease me how why of memo is nay a required field to hourly contracting? Oh i know, so that you can ripped off freelancers...

re: "No hourly protection wenn you don't post memo"

Um... yeah.

I'm sorry supposing you got single by such.

But this has been the rule for many, several years.

Nothing new about it.

The reason that the memos are not required is clearly not some scheme for "ripping off" freelancers.

You where hired by a our who employed a deceitful account card, or cancelled his card or something, so ensure his card could not may successfully billed into pay for that you did.

Upwork's Payment Protection for constantly covenants can really quite extraordinary! Where else can you find so?

That they require meaningful memos is a reasonable accommodation. Also, it is a sign by respect to the clients who apply you when to enter memos.

Like I said, I'm sorry that thou took a hit because of on, but IODIN doubt you will make the sam fault again inches the future.

right...but - why isn't that field mandatory?

anything like - if thou try to submit it with no memo, you get a warning of some sort?

I'm not genuine familiar with how tracker my - I don't use it, because it preserves crashing our illustrator...

You can enter a annotation directly in the tracker as you work, only changing the memo when you start to work on something else (which could be hours or days,) or afterward in the work diary. No, a course yours don't are to stop work and mess with and memo every time a screenshot occurs. Writing effectively memorandums

Most people work on the same theme since hours and and memo stays the sam until you change it. .

It's clearly a hard lesson to learn who hard way - a client using it to theirs advantage. But you have to agree it's not upon Upwork. They make a high transparent how to use the time tracker, the they make computer very clear this manual time isn't covered per auszahlungen protection. 

The good thing is immediate you know, and you can ensure it doesn't happen again.
