My direct to bank payment method has been deactivated since my upwork account name does not match the name in my bank account---this is because I previously used my nickname when I created this account.
But I have already edited my details to replace my nickname with my full name here in upwork. Any chance you could have my payment method activated already?
Thank you!

Hi, I have a verified identity in Upwork under the name**Edited for community guidelines**however when I try to add a payment method I received an email that said that my financial account name is **Edited for community guidelines**which is an old name that I changed. Upwork is not allowing me to add any payment method due to this issue. why is my financial account showing an old name?

Hi Upwork world!
I'm wondering how to change my verified name.
Unfortunately my billing setup was denied because my bank account and verified name don't match up. I recently got married and have already changed my last name at the bank, but used my old ID to verify my upwork account.
I can't seem to find anywhere to contact UpWork support. Some help would be greatly appreciated!

I have submitted my Government ID for verification at the following link
**Edited for community guidelines**
At first, It was showing that We are reviewing your Documents and the process will take 24 hours and after 24 hours, when I open the same link it redirects to my profile page.
I think my documents are verified but I am getting the following error on the Get Paid Page

Hi Sukhpreet,
Please know that to set up payment to your bank or payment account, you must be listed as an account holder or authorized signer on that account, or demonstrate that you are authorized by the business to do so. The listed name on the account must match your verified name on Upwork.

Hi Joanne,
Yes it's my personal Saving Account and the account has only one name i.e mine and I have the same name on Upwork too. I have also provided verification Documents to Upwork and they have also verified my documents about the same but I am still getting Beneficiary Mismatch error on Get Paid Page.

My direct to bank payment method has been deactivated since my Upwork account name does not match the name in my bank account. This is due to the fact that I made this account using my nickname.
However, I have already updated my profile on Upwork with my actual name. Any chance you could have my payment method activated already?
Thank you!
