BusinessRe: Upwork Thread (Questions/Help/Advice) by XploraBen(m): 2:12pm On Jun 04, 2024
Jaycobbs:
You can just remove it from your resume if you're worried about the repercussions from Upwork.

It's a loophole that a client of mine used to avoid the fees and take me off the platform.

Upwork is creating new stringent measures every day to stop them from losing money every day, so you need to weigh your decision carefully.





It's a pleasure, man.
At the bolded, how did the client pay you since he took the job off the platform?

Is this stuff working now?

Geegpay has been playing ping pong with me for a while since I wanted to create a card and I think their card creation service was down for a while

How much does it take to create one now?
Yes, the card is working.
You'll be charged a one-time fee of $1 to create a new card.

@XploraBen, what about Chipper? Is it reliable to add its virtual card to Upwork for buying connects? I'm skeptical about putting funds in it.
I don't know about this, I haven't tried it before.

Thank you. I've been trying to verify my ID on Geegpay since, but they didn't accept NIN as a valid ID. I don't understand. They said international passport is the most preferable form of ID, but my passport has expired.
I first used my PVC for verification when I opened my account in 2022. I was asked to verify my account again this year and I used my NIN, which they accepted.

If you have a PVC, try and use it.

Upwork isn't accepting Nigerian banks' ATM cards as a payment/billing method for buying connects. Any recommendations on other payment methods one can use, please?

Cc: pocohantas, qtguru, and others.
Open a Geegpay account and create a virtual card.
Fund the card and use it to pay for not only Upwork connects but almost anything online.
It's what I'm using and their service is swift and reliable.

So you're saying the EFCC won't verify before sending the fund?

It must definitely be caused by a recent software update you installed.

Paid BAT supporters will soon flood here to castigate a dignified individual like Peter Obi who's not the cause of Nigeria's current problems.

It's just annoying how they deflect from discussing issues affecting Nigeria, after all it's the Tinubu that they blindly support that has brought us into this economic mess.

yewit37486:
Basically, you are regretting not learning how to steal and rob others?
Let's call it what it is - yahoo is electronic armed robbery. There are real victims at the other end, some of who end up committing suicide. Those balling today from such money have no idea what is waiting for them.

Bro, you have nothing to regret. Be diligent at that 9-5 and you will be amazed how things will turn around.
I wish I can like this response 1000 times! 🎯👍👏

"Yahoo Yahoo" is virtual robbery. Many of the unsuspecting victims of these fraudulent guys fall into huge depression after losing almost or all of their life savings. Some of these victims even commit suicide!

Majority of these G guys seem to have dead conscience. But as someone who have been hit hard by life and now later making it through freelancing, I can tell you nothing beats earning legitimately and with peace of mind.

This is why I don't envy these G guys because I believe they don't truly work for the money they have.

smellingmenses:
Or as long as it takes to wreck NATO
Well, I get your point now.
If Russia's plan is to wreck NATO, the war will drag on for a really long time and may even explode into a full-blown war, which will eventually lead to World War III.

By the way, your moniker is something else. lipsrsealed
How did you come about it?

10 years? That's a freaking long time for a war in this modern age if true.
Where did you get this information from?

It seems there's no end in sight to this war.

It's just unfortunate that Ukraine allowed itself to be used as a battleground for a proxy war between Russia and the West.

I'm sorry, is there a difference between a PC and a laptop?
PC stands for Personal Computer. It's just a generic name for a non-Apple computer that is personal to you. You can have a desktop PC or laptop PC or both.

If you were born in a poor family or in an average income family, life is already leading you by 1:0.

If your father is not present in your life as a growing young man, life is leading you by 2:0.

Then if you later marry without fixing yourself, life is leading you by 3:0.

At this point, It will be extremely difficult for you to equalize and later win in life.
Highly insightful.👍
This is one of the reasons I don't want to rush into marriage. I need to fix myself and become well-to-do to some extent before marrying.
PhonesRe: S10E Vs Midrange Phones: Kindly Advise. by XploraBen(m): 6:20pm On May 05, 2024

The green line is mostly devices that use amoled.

So long as the device doesn't use amoled you'll be fine.
Sure, I know.
My device has a Super AMOLED display.

Samsung A-series phones with Super AMOLED display are not affected.

As per the several reports I've come across, the green line issue comes up after upgrading to Android 12 or 13 for the devices I mentioned in my first response.

emmy512:
I have an s10 plus I bought new in 2019. Still works perfectly, Feels premium,
Battery still great.

But I'll advise you against buying the Samsung because of the screen,
After updating to android 12 few months later I now have a green line which is a common problem

Except you'll manage that issue I'll say go for a redmi note instead, not the 13c
And I read that this green line issue is peculiar to the Samsung S20, S21, S22, and Note 20 line ups. I don't know it's now applicable to the S10 Plus.

This green line issue is the reason I'm reluctant to upgrade to a Samsung S-series (I currently use Samsung A70 and it's still serving me well though). Maybe I'll just get myself A73 because I don't want this green line problem.

No natural disaster
Good climate
Ample land for agriculture
Large enough country
No earthquake, tsunami, monsoon or excessive flooding.

The only thing Nigeria lacks is LEADERSHIP.

So, don't disturb God to help Nigeria. He won't come down from heaven to do what our common sense should do.

u hv to be comprehensive on your post. U did not point out what us making US weak. Despite US dominate aviation, marine. U are saying they are getting weak.
My position is, despite all these show of military might, not all countries cower to the dictate of the U.S., especially countries allied with Russia (China, Iran, North Korea, Belarus etc).

Even recently in Africa, see how Niger ordered the U.S. out of their country and welcomed Russia.

I believe you get my point now.

World war 3 will change the balance of power now
Or how else do you think a new world power will emerge, America itself became world power only after WW2 now.

China or Russia is expected to be the next world power after USA has been shoved aside. Who would have thought Great Britain will be a lacky to USA but thats the situation today even though Britain colonized America
I reckon with your point. With how the Great Britain wielded so much power before the start of the 1900s, one wouldn't have thought they will be a puppet to the United States – whom they colonised – in this present time. The truth is, there's no permanent world power. Wrestling the "world power" title from the U.S. will be difficult, though not impossible.

China is closer to becoming the next world power than Russia due to its flourishing and growing economy and its increasing military might. However, China will only become the next world power, if in the event of World War 3, their alliance will Russia and its other allies are able to overcome the United States and NATO.

Of course, I know.
The U.S. may have the biggest military budget of any nation on Earth, but they don’t police countries allied with Russia.
