Beneficiary name is mismatched

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 there, I'm having the same problem. I actually took a break since last year, but nothing changed to my profile. I used to withdraw my balance successfully before without any problem, now I added a new bank account with new account number that I just opened last year it's still the same. I thought the problem is my old bank account because that was my old payroll account few years ago. Can somebody help me about this?
