I had a buyer purchase one of my writing gigs last week, asking me to answer a lengthy and in-depth questionnaire and then write a 500 word review. Well, that was certainly too much work for one gig, so I asked the buyer to mutually cancel the order.
He refused, stating he would send another $5 to finish the work. After another week, he had neither sent the additional payment nor responded to my messages, so I canceled the order this morning, not wanting to let it run late, waiting for him to respond. Now in my "To Do" list, there is a buyer rating task sitting there for that buyer. When I click it, there is no where to leave a rating..why would I want to leave a rating...since the order didn't happen? Is this something anyone else has encountered?
Is the buyer going to be able to rate me, even though I did not complete the order? I've put in a ticket to CS, so I'll report back on what they say. I'd just like to know if this has been seen before or (preferably) if it's an anomaly--which would hopefully mean it's a glitch that can be taken care of.
