My customer haven't responded my messages and I didn't dare give him the invoice
Hello everyone,
I am experiencing an issue with the buyer of my services. I have been working for this individual for over a month, but he has stopped responding to my messages. After delivering the product, the buyer repeatedly asked me to wait for their review before making any modifications. However, I have been waiting for an extended period. Is it appropriate for me to request payment now, or would this be against your rules? I cannot continue waiting without any communication from him.
And with such a long period of time, will the money in the escrow account that he deposited be refunded? That amount of money is very large, but right now I don't dare send him an invoice because I'm afraid it will violate the platform's rules, but he keeps not responding to my messages, making me very worried and I'm afraid I will lost money for the effort and time I spent on his project! Please help me handle this case!!
Thank you!

Based on platform rules, you're absolutely right to be concerned... what I recommend-
1 officially raise an invoice through the platform. this is your legitimate right after completing the work and the buyer's prolonged silence
2 don't worry about complaints.... if you've genuinely completed the work as agreed, the platform typically supports freelancers who have fulfilled their contractual obligations
3 document all your communication attempts and project deliverables..... this will protect you if any dispute arises
4 be professional and factual in your communication....
you've done the work and have every right to be compensated... the platform exists to protect both parties, and prolonged silence from a buyer doesn't nullify your right to payment.good luck...
