Can I Block a Freelancer on UpWork?

Last updated on September 30, 2022 @ 11:27 am

There are a few reasons why you might want to block a freelancer on UpWork. Maybe they’re constantly pestering you for work, even though you’ve told them you’re not interested.

Or maybe they’ve been rude or unprofessional in their communications with you. Whatever the reason, UpWork gives you the ability to block freelancers so that they can no longer contact you or view your job postings.

PRO TIP: If you block a freelancer on Upwork, they will no longer be able to see your profile, contact you, or submit proposals to your projects. This action is irreversible, so please use it sparingly and only when necessary.

To block a freelancer on UpWork, go to their profile page and click the “Block this user” link under their name. Confirm that you want to block the user, and they will be added to your blocked users list. You can view and manage your blocked users list by going to your Settings page and clicking the “Blocked Users” tab.

Blocking a freelancer on UpWork is a good way to protect yourself from unwanted solicitations or inappropriate behavior. If you find yourself being harassed or bothered by a freelancer, don’t hesitate to take advantage of this feature.
