How long do I have to wait for the worker to make their Expert Guarantee?
The worker has up to 3 business days to make their Expert Guarantee. During that time we also send them daily email notifications to prompt them to respond. Please do realize that the worker’s circumstances may have drastically changed since the time they initially bid (for example, they may have won additional projects in the meantime and no longer have spare capacity). As a result they may choose to decline your project during this time at no penalty (other than noting the incident as a neutral item on their rating). Once the worker escrows the Expert Guarantee you will both be notified and work will begin. If for some reason, the worker neither escrows funds, nor declines the project in 3 business days, they will receive a negative rating. If this happens, you will be notified and can choose to switch to another worker at no charge. Due to the delay usually required for a worker to complete the escrowing of the Expert Guarantee, it is not recommended to use Expert Guarantee on a pro
