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!

I have a problem with PayPal Payment method verification
On my PayPal account my first and last name are in cyrilic letters: Мязин Петр Витальевич
But Upwork only allows english letters in name, so I am "Myazin Petr"
So I've got an error: "The beneficiary name on the payment method you added doesn't match the name on your Upwork account. This match is required."
Can you help to solve it?

Hi there,
The name I use in my bank account is " Sudip K.C. "
I have been using Sudip KC on Upwork. When I tried to transfer funds to the bank, I got an email later saying Invalid Beneficiary name. It must be due to the punctuation mismatch. What should I do now? Should I change my Upwork name to Sudip K.C. and try to get paid? Will it work? Kindly guide me through this, please.
Thanks.
Mar 11, 2021 07:45:21 AM by Bojan S

One of the members from the Upwork support team told me it would work if I change my Upwork profile name to the one in the bank account. It hasn't worked at all. I know it's the punctuation problem in my name- "Sudip K.C." But I am unable to get help from neither the bank nor the Upwork team. I have tried to transfer funds three times but it has failed all the time. Can anyone from the support team help me personally and point out where the problem is? Thanks.
P.S. I have just contacted my bank and they said they can't put the name with punctuation. So the name on my bank is "Sudip KC" On the other hand the name on my government ID is "Sudip K.C. " I have just read that the Upwork support team can solve this problem manually. Can you please help me with this?

Greetings! I have a problem with my funds transfer. This is already my second time to withdraw my funds directly to my bank since the first time stated that it was failed. My second transfer was processed last Oct 27 and is expected to come until Nov 1, but I still haven't received my funds yet. I have already contacted my bank and they said that no transaction has come today. Please assist me with my withdrawal, It's allready five days.

Hi,
I have the same problem. It states that "The beneficiary name is mismatched." however, I haven't done any changes to my account recently.
Before, I can withdraw anytime because I have no problems with my payment method. I haven't done any changes to my account recently and I am shocked and confused as to why I am getting an error message like this.
"Your payment method has been deactivated because the beneficiary name on your payment method does not match the name on your Upwork account."
Can someone please help me out? Is there someone I can talk to about this?
Nov 10, 2021 09:51:11 PM by Joanne P
