its good not bad, but somehow at start it needs to have few tips Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I initially chose Freelancer.com for its promise of a secure platform and strong client protection. Unfortunately, my experience did not reflect that. I hired a freelancer who delivered work that was far below the agreed standards and several weeks late. After opening a dispute, I won the arbitration and was refunded for the second milestone.

I hired a freelancer through Freelancer.com to develop a custom 3D animation tool. Despite all the promises of a "secure platform," the freelancer delivered unusable work — missing core features, extremely poor quality, and more than 3 weeks late.

I opened a dispute and won it, but I was only refunded for the unreleased milestone. The first €750 had been released early, before any proper delivery, and I never recovered that amount — despite undeniable evidence that the freelancer failed to deliver and even offered a full refund in exchange for a 5-star review (a clear violation of platform rules).

The worst part?

❌ No public review is allowed once a project enters a dispute.

❌ Freelancer.com support just tells you "nothing can be done" if you released a milestone too early — even if no valid delivery followed.

❌ Total lack of accountability and buyer protection.

Conclusion:

Freelancer.com might look safe from the outside, but if you’re a serious client expecting professionalism and protection, this is not the place. I lost money and valuable time. A completely broken system that favors the freelancer — even when they cheat.

Avoid at all costs. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
