Hi Mohammad Moin,
I checked your account and can see that both your billing methods are currently in the process of verification. When you add a credit card to your account, you may need to verify your card via 2 small charges, which can take up to five days for the two charges to show up on your credit card account. Once you see the charges on your credit card statement, please go to your Billing Methods page (Settings > Billing Methods) to verify your credit cards.
Once your cards have been verified, you should be able to pay for the milestone you have in your contract.

If the funds are in escrow, then you should be able to follow this:
However, without having a verified payment method, the milestone might not actually be funded.

Hi George,
The 2 small charges that I mentioned in my earlier reply total to $10.
These charges will bill to your card and appear in your Reports tab in your Transaction History. Here's what happens to that credit:

Can I pay without verified card?
No, you CAN NOT! Please verify the credit card, then you can pay.

How does this card verification thing work exactly? If the card was not verified, how did Upwork manage to charge it for the $1000 that is now no longer in the OP's bank account, but held in escrow by Upwork? Or am I just being dense?
